Week 1- Getting Started

in Group Discussion - Core Challenge

I have never done a core challenge before, I have a feeling by Wednesday nexty week I am going to think this is a terrible idea!!

I have the p-90X videos and I also use a TRX trainer for core exercises. I think the first week I am going to start nice and easy, I have to be able to move too!

Monday- P90X core Synergistics

Tuesday- probably an off day due to the fact I won't be able to move much.

Wednesday- Ab Ripper X- if I am still to sore just some TRX core work

Thursday- Yoga-X

Friday- Off day again

Saturday- AB Ripper X- or my version of it, I am pretty pathetic!!

Sunday- Stretch X

We'll see how week one goes... may have to make adjustments for week 2!!

If you do not have access to p90X workouts and would still like some really good core exercises with videos, I recomment this site- they have a TON of great exercises, areally good video and descriptions: http://www.coreperformance.com/sear...Fknowledge

Good Luck everyone!

    Awesome, Becky! This is def the place to post our weekly updates/goals- thanks for helping me! I love the idea of Yoga as a core workout too and def want to do the P90X yoga and Core Synergistics when I get home. I will absolutely use the website! Thanks!

    it's totally a core workout, my obliques were HATING me last week, not to mention my poor shoulders from all the 'optional' pushups. Can't wait to do it tonight...again. I was lazy this morning!

    I've never done this before, either, but I do know I need help with accountability to get core work done so thanks, team! Measurements: belly button- 30.5; mid torso - 28; upper rib cage - 31.5. Height : 5'5" weight 148.8

    Plan is to do a core workout 3 x next week while in Mallorca. I hope to do mon- fri self- designed to music using the stability ball and weds- ab ripper x. In the future I want to add yoga once my elbow is healed and can support it.
  • BeckyHBeckyH
    Okay... measurements are:
    belly button- 30"
    mid torso- 31"
    upper ribcage- 32"

    I don't have any goals physically (except maybe it would be nice to see a few ab muscles poke their way out!)- but my real goal is to make it through an entire session of Ab Ripper-X. May not get there in 4 weeks, but I'll record my progress and see how it goes.
