Jamie Eason's LiveFit Trainer: Day 19

Woohoo!I Day 10! :):) I know you don't recommend cardio, but I've been adding that in too because I've been working out for so long already, I felt my body needs a bit more than just weights. I love your work outs!

oops wrong one! loL!

I couldn't do roman chair it's very hard
I'm at my lowest point and I need motivation!!
I'm missing heaps of stuff and now depressed.
Anyone wants to share hit me email nuraulia@hotmail.com

What if I did not do the leg workout yesterday, it it OK to double up today and do legs/shoulders/abs?

I'm looking forward to this workout. I really need to increase my upper body strength. I'm so happy to be this far into the program, it's getting easier for me to realize this could be my new way to live my life. Eating clean and lifting weights. Its encouraging to see strength gains and it continues to boost my confidence. I squatted 45 lbs. Yesterday, and 3 weeks ago I told my husband there was no way I could do that. Your body can be stronger than you think. I found I need to mentally push myself through my workouts too. Find a way to keep pressing through challenges. It's not just a physical transformation. Good luck, happy lifting!

Enjoying the workout. I look forward to adding some cardio so I can lose some pounds. I have loses 2 dress sizes. Beginning size 16/18 now size 14 is too big. Hooray!!!!!

Day 19 and I'm down 2.2lbs. I had to incorporate cardio to get down 2.2lbs because I tried my clothes on and they were way to tight and I don't want to beef up anymore. Since I already have muscle mass I decided to dig hard into Cardio three days ago and already down 2.2lbs. After reviewing other bodybuliding trainer articles some sort of cardio is in almost everyone's recommended workout. I think the first phase of this program should be aimed at individuals who have no muscle mass and those who do should be able to jump ahead by two weeks. I'm not trying to put more muscle on then I already developed over the years as a runner. Specifically I am looking into Obi Obadike's workout on Bodybuilding.com that reflects real up to date before and after results. His meal plan is more doable, workouts include cardio and weight training from the start, folks are losing up to 30lbs in 8 weeks and are lean and cut. Sorry folks hate to be a traitor but I love cardio and get better results incorporating cardio.

Those rear delt cable flyes are tough. I did 5lbs on each side and still had a hard time. I couldn't do a full extension, but I extended till my body allowed. I'm loving the way my arms are starting to tone as well as my legs. Hoping the bye bye arm goes away once I'm done with the program. I'm still extremely excited and motivated with this program.

I could not do any Rear-Delt Cable Flyes today as the lightest weight of the cable in my gym is 4.5kg each side, so I did another 3 sets of Seated Bent-Over Rear Delt Raise instead at 3kg each dumbbell which I believe is very similar.
I could not find a Roman Chair in my gym so I had to use a simple bar to do the leg raises.

So I'm going into week four and am noticing some muscle definition, especially in my arms. However, I'm busting out of my pants! It could be the lack of cardio and that I'm just building muscle...I don't know. My question is on the weekends I work as a bartender and I don't get to bed until 3am. I literally have NO time to fit a meal in between 10pm-2am. My last meal (meal 5) is around 7pm. Do I still need to eat every three hours until bedtime in order for this eating regime to be effective? If that's the case, I will be eating up to 7 meals! I just fear of consuming too many calories. But at the same time when I get home from work I'm STARVING and sometimes will binge (big no no!) Not on junk food though. I just will consume about 350-400 calories on a wrap or sandwich. I crave the carbs at that hour. I don't want to sabotage my program so any tips or advice would be ever so helpful. Thanks everyone! :)

Day 19!! Yay!! My energy level is back up and not as sore as I thought I would be from yesterday!!
Can anyone clue me in or post the link why it is so important to have rest days? After doing cardo 7 days a week for a year, I having a hard time devoting two days to resting!!

In the bag. whoo. Looking forward to my rest days now.

I understand that so many feel like they "need" to do cardio or the workout does not feel complete. I used to be the same way.

However I feel this program is designed to shock our bodies out of the usual routine. I stopped stepping on the scale and I just really on the way my clothes are fitting.

I think that following the program as directed (at least for me) will give me the best results.

I did Kris Gethin's 12 week program 3 times to get to where I am now. After being stuck at the same weight for over a month, even with cardio, I decided to switch up. Jamie's plan shocked my body out of its cycle and I can happily say that the scale was down 7lbs this morning.

Hang in their it took you a long to get where your at it will take that long to get where you want to be .when I started working out 2 years ago I didnt have any kind of firm bod but look at me now

I felt pretty discouraged today. I haven't missed a beat and I haven't noticed anything budge with my weight or measurements. But what strange thing did I notice today? Looks like a defined line down my stomach hiding underneath what I call my 9 yr old baby....I'll keep going!

So I have been doing this, but since my family is probably the unhelthiest family in my city (lol) it's a big problem for me to eat as healthy as suggested. I have eliminated sugary drinks, all candy, chips etc. And try to eat the suggested foods, but eating the amount of food every three hours is very hard.
I don't really notice anything different about my body, maybe I have lost half an inch across my *** and belly but nothing more. I can lift heavier weights now.
Should I feel some difference cause it feels like I am doing something wrong when I do my workouts, like I am not that sweaty :/ Plz help!!

Instead of having the egg whites, veggies and starch.. can i make a swap for Oats and protein powder ? If so how much in weight.. I just cant get myself to want to taste veggies in the morning lol

My right shoulder is significantly stronger than my left from blow drying hair ( I'm a stylist) .... To even them up, should I do an extra set with only my left on the exercises that I can or leave out my right for the last set? Best way to compensate for this brutal lopsidedness ?

On week 3 day 19 today for me. Is the
Rear-Delt Cable Flyes in the right place? I thought that was back? I am working shoulders today.
