I am still working on Phase 1, which they recommend you do for 2 months. I will keep going through the end of June, and start Phase 2 in July. Today, I did the assessment test to compare my progress to April 26th. I should have done it a couple weeks ago, but didn't. So be it!
Let's compare.....

By Wednesday I was completely wiped from training with softball and volleyball thrown into the mix. And, I haven't been doing too well with my nutrition. I know I wasn't fueling my body properly. With school being out, and some later nights out and about, I was sleeping in later and throwing off my days.... We'll see how this coming week goes!
Have a great week, y'all!

Great job on the improved numbers!
wow that's great improvement! you are a poster child for why it's a good program!
great progress! I started the TriPower last week too :)
Way to go on the Tri Power progress. I cant seem to find any time for strength/core training
WOW! Those are huge improvements! That's so great to see- gives you reassurance that you're doing the right things and your hard work is paying off.
KEEP IT UP!
I need to get some core training in. I slack so much in this area. Looks like all is going well.
That is such a great improvement from the first time you did all that stuff! Great job! Its working!
Great job on Phase 1 so far! Keep it up!
By the way, thanks for the comment about me being missed in NS. It means a lot to me.
I am quite pleased with my results!
Holy Cow! You should be. That's awesome!!!
Dang, those numbers look great! for me, that kind of improvement translated into faster and longer runs. i swear tri power was the only reason i made it through the swim on the oly yesterday. since i hadn't done any actual swimming beforehand. nice job!
Wow girl you have made some awesome improvements!!! Nice job!
Very cool!!! You've made some major gains, that's awesome! Sounds like you're having fun too, good stuff!!!!
