ok so i probably already know the answer to this. but for the 3rd session of the week, where it says to do 3 sets of 15 reps, does it really mean that i have to do the 'dynamic lunge' (for example), 30 times so that both legs get 15 reps.
it just took me ages, 1hr & 27 minutes to do workout A on day 5!!! how long should this workout really take? ![]()
First off, high five for doing rffl. I did it a while back and it is indeed a beast.
Unfortunately, you do 15 reps per leg. I had the same question when I was getting into it, but realized that it would come out uneven if you didn't do 15 per leg. It does take a while, but part of it is getting used to/figuring out the exercises (of course, it also depends on whether or not you work out in a gym that has the equipment free when you need it - I found the most frustrating thing was trying to do supersets and having people take over half of the equipment I needed).
It's all worth it though. I dropped about 5% bf on it. And you feel like a badass.
thanks. i was afraid of that answer but knew it to be true. i just thought there was a slim chance. at least i only have to do 15 reps once a week.
but i do say i have tons of energy, even though i feel like ive been chewed and spit out during each session, cursing the program. and yes doing it at the gym takes time & i have to move around different parts of the gym. i usually have to take longer rest times because of that, not that im complaining.
i lost 4lbs pounds last week, i think some of it was water/glycogen weight as i was on a slight bulking phase before i started. i hope cuz i dont want to lose any muscle. not to mention i cleaned up by diet, except for 1 or 2 days a week for the last 2 weeks.
i can defo see myself coming back to this exercise when i need to, maybe next year b4 ibiza.
yeah, it's amazing how the fat just melt away. i wouldn't really worry about losing muscle. keep up the cals and protein and you should be a-okay.
ibiza...drooooool...
Thanks for the information.
I am using a similar plan with the Body For Life- it just uses weights reps and sets differently but still to the point of really working hard
yeah it actually looks simple enough, the first couple of reps, i thought oh and then it hits you. yesterday i actually didn't feel too bad, 4th week. couldn't quite increase the weight yet for all reps, but i played around with a heavier weights for a few reps until i almost toppled over on a few. and for a lot of the exercises, if you make sure to hold in your stomach properly that gets a nice workout too. which is good for me cuz the usual crunches don't do anything for my abs really, only really standing stabilizing exercises do.
