I will be done with Phase 1 tomorrow. I really enjoyed this phase! No dread and the workouts go by pretty quickly. I like the RAMP warm up but, some people may need something more active. I do foam rolling after working or just while watching tv. However, foam rolling does not replace stretching for me. I need both. I have not followed the food plan but I have decided I need to. I gained 8-10lbs from Jan-June due to stress and exhaustion from having a crazier than usual work schedule. I know that means some diet adjustments, especially when I am trying to get my body into weightloss mode. |

ETA: in the book P2 RAMP, there's an ankle mobility exercise where you stand with your toes raised on a mat and bend your knees 10 times - easy peasy. But on the DVD, you have to get in plank, balance on one side and pike up 8 times on each side - ouch.

When I did the workouts, I was restarting after not doing weight workouts for quite a while. I found I could complete the workouts, but was exhausted afterwards and couldn't get much done for the rest of the day. So I decided to drop back and do fewer reps with less weight. I still haven't worked up to the full workout in the first phase yet, so I don't really have any results to report except that I'm slowly improving.
I'm also intimidated by the metabolic workouts. I dread pushing so hard even if it's for a short amount of time.
