Today is the official start of @illestbambi's #GetInShapeChallenge. Below is my weigh-in and workout for today. I weighed in at 189.8

Progress Report

Even though @illestbambi's contest officially starts today, I started my workouts 5 days ago so I am continuing my progress from then.

Day 4 Jogging w/ pull-ups in the park vs Day 2

ExercisesReps Day 2Reps Day 4
Jogging3 miles3miles
Pullups66

Even, though I didn't make any increases in distance jogged or number of pull-ups, I felt like I did make some progress that will be reflected in future reports.

Day 5 Circuit Workout vs Day 3

ExercisesReps Day 3Reps Day 5
pushups3032
situps100+194
curls2028
military1014
Hill jogs32

I added a second set of reps to my circuit and I will soon move to 3 sets. By adding a second set I doubled the length of the circuit workout, adding to my cardio, and added reps in every category except for the hill jogs compared to my last report. I only did two today.

Note - On Day 3 I had a long break between my hill jogs and circuit workout. Today(Day 5) I did them back to back.

Great article! I was doing something similar to this a few days ago.

Great data collection... and great analysis and comparison of Day 3 and Day 5...

Looking for my trainers, it's raining here.

A Little bit of weight gained isn't a big deal, just stick to your program and don't fall into any cheat days :)
