When I first started working out because of past injury using free weights wasn't practical. So kstarted with a bowflex. Now that I am more advanced I can honestly say free weights are better but I did see rewal good results with the bowflex.

Cardio complete!!

I've never competed with this team i'm on before, they may do something like that, they have everything else down to a science so I'll be interested to see if they have me do that...

Using more resistance for a longer period really helped. Thanks again for all your support.

I tried finding the article I read on it but couldn't, I did find another article on it and contest preperation. The article I read was more of a summary but this one gives the science behind contest preperation including switching salts, it's pretty interesting

I did carb up last season but as far as the salt intake, thats definetley something to research on those final 10 days, I go to super camp on the 10th, I'll ask my freinds that have been on the team for a while what they had to do the last week! thanks for the info and I'll share what I learn!

LOL If you want to sweat, THIS will make it happen! Good luck!

BTW: I also do these on my driveway, My driveway slopes up in a pretty good incline and I just take off and do my sprints down the street, either way its a damn good workout!

Sometimes you just can't beat being outside!

Either way its still a great workout, Might be good just to do this with no incline starting out, still makes for a tight bedonk-a-donk! lol

Did HIIT on the elliptical and treadmill for an hour Saturday and an hour Sunday. This means a full week of exercising and eating differently as of last Friday.

I am noticing that I suddenly seem to be developing an ass, which I've never had before (just flat) and I'm STOKED about that... because it looks pretty awesome!!! and it just makes me want to work harder. Things also seem to be firmer-- like my stomach and my arms and legs! But the scale says I haven't lost any weight. I've cut what I eat significantly and am working out at least 5 days a week. I don't get it
