LOL. I'm doing the regular right now. You're failing to incorporate everything else that has been said in this thread. Want to lose gut fat, Bevis.

gut fat is lost with diet - you can do ab ripper x all day, you're just going to build muscle under your fat and still have a gut. STOP DRINKING AND EAT CLEAN and you'll lose your gut, Butthead.

Don't do lean, stay with classic. Take out kenpo and add something worthwhile.

I was thinking of doing an Insanity list, but was not sure which one is actually Ariel.

I had to go back and find BR's XXX film reference. I forgot Maren's name, I'll edit.

Went with the actual pull-ups today, then modified. Actually, most of them were modified, but definitely felt like I got more of a workout. Would do as many as I could in a row (not many), then would go to the ground between reps, then if I couldn't cut it, would use a chair. Wish I would have done this much sooner, but after tomorrow, I'm only half-way through.

As for Dreya. Got a better look at her face today, and wanted to screw Sophia much more, and Dreya much less. I think I was just focusing on Dreya's body, which isn't too shabby.

So does Eric. At the cool down he goes in for a hug your neighbor and gets his green bean soup denied.

Not sure why you didn't, as he clearly states to do that in his videos.

Could barely do one pull-up when starting, so my goal was to start with bands and work my way up... which I'm doing, but I just wish I would have made this switch a little sooner. I don't regret starting with the bands.

I need to grow 10" and gain 150 lbs of muscle.... but I'll get there someday


For real though, anyone watch the World's Strongest Man every year?

Damn, waking up at 4:30 on a Monday is never easy! But, I'm proud of myself b/c I did every rep in Ab-Ripper this morning for the first time. Scissor and mason were the ones where I usually didn't do the full 25 reps (50 with Mason).

I skipped plyo this morning and will run a few miles tonight. Did everything in my power to wake up at 4:30, but our toddler has hand/foot/mouth right now, and slept with us last night. Slept like shit.

So the gym i go to has this device for rows. Thoughts on the difference between this and doing pendlay rows?

It's similar, but I personally like to stay away from machines as much as possible. Just my opinion though...
