Yesterday I woke up and did the cardio portion of the Metamorphosis. I'm used to doing the mat/toning work first and then cardio but Tracy said in the intro portion of the DVD to do cardio first, so I gave it a go. I found it to be okay, I much prefer doing the Beginner Dance Cardio and I've been trying to learn the combos in Dance Cardio 2.
Next was the toning or muscular structure work. I bought the Hip Centric Metamorphosis as I feel that my hips and thighs are my main problem area. I doubled up on the arms and abs for a total of 21 minutes and then did the leg portion. The legs are tough! I think because it goes so quickly, but I'm sure that after a few times I'll be able to complete the whole thing without stopping. That seemed to be how it went through each of the Perfect Design Series DVD's as well.
I felt so great after working out, really missed that endorphin rush and all the "fairy dust" or sweat as us Tracy Anderson fans call it.
Now on to the diet. For this first week we eat the same 7 things every day. Each day I'll give a rundown of one or two of the items. The first is "Power Juice."
As you can see, it's lots of kale, I used dino, a beet, spinach and half an apple all juiced up. Yum! hahaha! I actually like it, but I love beets and all veggies really. I call it Christmas in a cup because of the color, pretty!
The rest of the day consisted of many other veggies and some fruit and even a chocolate pudding, that I will discuss later. I found that in the afternoon I got a little woozy but by evening I was fine. Even when I woke up this morning I wasn't hungry and was able to get through day two's workout just fine.
One more thing before I go. I'd like to include the shopping list for week one's menu, here!
