SH Easier after IS???

[kellib]

Did SH Triceps/Biceps/abs this morning after about 8 weeks of Intensity series rotations. It seemed less difficult than in the past when I've done it - I didn't feel like I got as good a work out as I did with the IS tapes. Anyone experience something like this? I'm thinking I may actually raise my weights...

If S&H was "less difficult" this time around, increase your weights. You should never feel that any workout is too easy. If you felt like you could do it no problem, that's a sign of time to increase your weight. Jeeze, could I repeat myself anymore? Tell me to shut up already! Oh my god, I'm typing & can't stop! LOL

The intensity series will have helped you to increase your strength & stamina. So, it is definitely time to increase your weights. LOL

Kelli - I 100% agree with Deborah. I experienced the same thing and have increased my wts on all exercises! I just did S&H chest the other day with increased wts and ooooohhhhh baby!

Good luck!

you are right - i guess i was just in disbelief that I actually increased my muscle strength! I think it's those pyramid tapes! well, those and the rotation with more weight work in it...in the past I've only done each body part ~2 times per week but with the Muscle Endurance/Cardio/Cardio&Wts/PLB/PUB/Bootcamp rotation, I'm working them more than ever....and I think that's what really 'jolted' them!
YAY!!!!


thanks!

Sometimes it takes others pointing out the obvious to us to make us see what was always right there in front of us. I know I need it sometimes!
