I FINISHED SOMETHING!!!

I have the most exciting news to share with you..... 

Are you prepared???? 

Erin and I completed the 12 week Jame Eason Livefit Workout Program!!!!



The J.E. workout program is perfect if you are looking to build muscle and trim fat. The program has 3 distinct phases; each transitioning to the next.

Phase 1: is all about lifting. Absolutely NO cardio. I know it sounds torturous, but you get used to it. Jamie really works on building muscle before adding in cardio and burning off the fat. This phase helped me feel comfortable and confident in the gym with the meat-heads.

Phase 2: basically intensifies the moves that you learned in phase 1 by adding in new sequences, upping the sets while lowering the reps. You also add in light cardio. The workouts are much longer as you are lifting for about an hour and then doing light cardio for 30 minutes.

Phase 3: pushes you to a whole new level. You really up the reps, while decreasing the number of moves. This is done in a circuit style. Jamie then so kindly adds in 30 second on/off sprints for 30 minutes. 

WHAT I LOVED
The sprints- sounds crazy, but true
Phase 2 lifting plan- this is the phase where my muscles started to pop
The easy to follow workout schedule- structure is good
The new crazy defined muscles that I now have- my upper body is ripped! 
The respect I get in the gym- I'm considered a regular and hard core
I've lost pounds- but more importantly inches 

WHAT DIDN'T JIVE WITH ME 
The length of time I spent in the gym in Phase 2
The circuit's in Phase 3- it was hard trying to "reserve" all the machines/weights needed
Legs- turns out I hate lifting legs
The eating- if I could have stuck to the meal plan I would be down another 5lbs
