    Ha! Straight out with it.

    Strange week, other than one 60 min run and half hearted plyometrics work out has consisted of lifting steady stream of food to face.

    Someone kick my ass.

    Just an FYI Nike just started that new campaign. It's called Make Yourself.

    They have seven top female athletes and they show you exercises that keep them strong. They have videos with exercises and also an app if you have an iphone. Hopefully you can use this link siince you have to put in your country.

    For abs I do a range of planks with and without weights. I also use the bosu whilst doing them and whilst at the gym i've just started using the powerplates too.

    Completely with those who said that need to do a complete body with it tho, especially combined with cardio

    My friend swears on Insanity workout at home but yet to look at that.

    what I have realized if you arent getting in good amount of cardio a six pack is out of the question (along with a diet). I ran alot a long time ago (army days) and had a flat stomach due to running and a minimum amount of sit ups and I was cool. just think if I did more intense work out on my abs I would have had a six pack.

    Progress:
    I have lost muscle mass all throughout my body. I gotta hustle hard to make up for the losses. Mixing my sets of 3 sets of 5 heavy reps and 3 sets of 10 medium reps to shock my muscles.

    Would you recommend that for weight loss as well because I'm trying to cut and build at the same time

    Well thought I should get back into the discussion I actually sustained a high ankle sprain a couple of weeks ago so I had to change up my routine to allow it some rest and recovery time.

    I hardly have the same set routine, as chronicled thru this progress thread, I pretty much grown tired of working out. The rewarding factor is almost nonexistent for me now....maybe is I were paid for it than my feelings would change.
