Today was my second body weight challenge workout in the UDT workouts that I'm currently doing. This one completed week 1. I have 3 more weeks to go. I have been sore all week. These workouts are hitting places I haven't hit in a long time and that's going to help me when I bulk up in M3.
I spent some time today just relaxing and finalizing my plan for M3. The M3 cycle will work like this:
M3 : D1 – May 13, 2008 – The entire plan is revealed
M3 : D2-D50 – May 14, 2008 – July 1, 2008 – Phase I
M3 : D51-D99 – July 2, 2008 – August 19, 2008 – Phase II
M3 : D100 – August 20, 2008 – Big Finale!
I will explain it more on May 13, 2008. Amazingly, May 13, 2008 is 201 days after I started my first mission and coincides with the first day of the original Group Shred. I am considering doing the time machine idea for the entire M3 so that I have a M1 : D1 to M3 : D1 comparison for everyone to see because M3 is going to be off the hook!
