Workout Wednesday

We have completed the 12 week On the Regimen program that we had started back in February.  It's a 12 week program that is centered around weight lifting/strength training which we love.  Twin 1 had found the program and instead of doing our Jillian Micheals videos we decided to give it a try.  It is actually our first program we successfully completed so that says something in and of itself right there!  

We basically downloaded the program which gave us some info and laid out all the exercises and how many reps to do on what day, right from Week 1, Day 1 to Week 12, Day 5.  It was a 5 day a week strength program alternating between arms and legs (plus abs/core) every day.  The best part of this was we got to spend some quality twin time with each other (even more so than we did before lol).  We alternated between our two houses depending on what equipment we needed.  The equipment mostly just consisted of some body weight, cable, dumb bells and a few exercises used a barbell but there were alternate exercises suggested if you didn't have said equipment available.  Twin 1 luckily obtained a free weight bench and weights from a friend.  


We took measurements and pictures of ourselves after every 4 weeks to track our progress.  While the overall result wasn't what we were hoping we both feel better after this program and would be one to be repeated.  If we had of added some cardio into the mix the results may have been slightly different but it is what it is and we are okay with that.


If your interested in where we got this program it was from www.ontheregimen.com where you can purchase the programs. 

What season is it?

Here are some pictures from this past weekend walks.  Looks more like fall to us.
