1,440 Total calories/1200 calories Target for weight loss (If i bump up workout calorie burn then i should be where i need to be-I can still work on the type of food/calorie intake just a tad).

On another note, first day of my Clomid pills again (this is the third time I have taken them). Here hoping this will be the month if not I get to increase my dosing again for next month. Yay, the emotional roller coaster begins.

Cardio warm up:
Insanity Max 30-Max out sweat (length about 33 mins with cool down)

Beast Temp Back & Bis (Length about 49 mins)-

What you need:
Bench or stability ball
Chin up bar (Chair or pull up assistance band-Optional)
Weights (light to medium weight as these are slow reps)
EZ curl Bar with weighted plates (optional)

Warm up (2:00):
Slow jog, arm circles, plank walks/holds, weighted dead lifts, weighted bend over rows, weighted reverse flys, fast jog.   

Here are my workout sheets:

This time I added 3 pound ankle weights to the pull ups-To make this harder you can do sets for each type of pull up (add or reducing ankle weights). For example, Pull ups (10 reps (2 pound ankle weights), 10 reps (3 pound ankle weights) & 8 reps (no ankle weights or increase ankle weights), Chin ups (same), Wide grip pull ups (same)& tricep pull ups (same). On the all angle bicep single set I think this could have been actually three different single sets. They had wide grip bicep curls for 15 reps, Close grip for 12 reps and reverse grip for 8 reps. What i did was three sets of each type (15 reps (8 pound weight), 12 reps (10 pound weight) and 8 reps (12 pound weight). This workout they had a lot of hanging crunches which are really great on the abs. The hanging abs were definitely my favorite parts of the workout. 

Cool down (1:44):
Arm pull side bends, lat stretch and tricep extension stretch.

I also did some additional quick stretches to fully cool down.

Tomorrow I will be doing PIYO Buns. Hope you will join me.

DAY 7-BEAST TEMPO CHEST & TRIS

It is the last day of this week so, the results are in....Drum roll....I lost 1 pound. Not too shabby as the recommended normal weight loss is 1 to 2 pounds a week, although I have lost more than that in a week before. I took pictures and noticed a few things, this trying to get pregnant is not helping my belly fat (I am getting lower mommy tummy again but, at least my abs are starting to shape)-It really is the stress and what I am eating. I have decided that I will include what I am eating plus how many calories I am consuming in my posts. This will 1) hold me accountable and 2 ) help me understand where i need to modify my diet to get results. I was doing this before i took my two weeks off, i guess it is time to get back to it....not that it is bad to have a cookie or fast food every once in a while just not every day or every week (Also not good for trying to get pregnant either). I also decided that i need to change up my daily cardio since I have been sick. I have all this junk in my lungs so need to somehow get it to vacate-extreme cardio is usually what helps me with that. I will still run cause i love running but, i am going to add some Insanity/extreme workouts to the mix this week. I will go back to running the next week to see the difference and to slow down a bit before ovulation time. Abs too to attack that lower mommy tummy...

Workout Stats:
