Peaceful Sunday morning to you!
I hope you’re having a great weekend and you’re feeling sore from a super Saturday workout like me. The light bulb just went off, as I think I’m going to have to eat more starches and splurges if I want to preserve & promote lean muscle and keep my weight on, because I see a ton of cardio minutes in my future with pushing this stroller and later playing at the parks. What a nice problem opportunity to have ‘eh! Speaking of cardio minutes and splurge meals, today’s recap w/ cardio minutes is below and the ND&GST is in a few hours. I hope to see you there.

2014 CYBBC Goals
Each year I have goals for where I want to take you based on how you’re progressing and how the class is progressing and these are some of the things I’ll work to implement with you. 2014 CYBBC Goals
P9 Overview
This is the last phase of Q3. It’s intentionally challenging to prepare you to peak for Labor Day and have a super compensation effect in September, when you might want to have peak performance for wrapping up Q3 numbers, getting “back to school routines” going and/or season ending triathlons or obstacle course races. If you choose to accept this opportunity to buff up your best self and peak for important events, then consider also the opportunity to choose foods that taste great AND help you to look, move and perform better. AND continue to choose intervals as your number 1 source of cardio conditioning.

| Key |
| w/e = Weekend
M-A = Metabolic Acceleration M-S = Metabolic Strength BW = Body Weight *30-50% of Body Weight means Total Dumbbell Weight is equal to the 30-50% of Body Weight Example: 180 lb. male 30%-50% BW is equal to 54 – 90lbs is Total Dumbbell Weight. Divide this number by 2 to get individual Dumbbell Weight (27-45 lbs. per dumbbell). |

I especially admire that you still did CW’s even though I was unable to video & mail out new one’s. That I didn’t even suggest you do old one’s and that these challenge workouts, especially the DB Complexes are particularly challenging to do. Well done and Hoo-Rah!.

What kind of sacrifices or different choices can you make? Most importantly, what can you do to make sure you show up for your next workout, rested and energized to give your best effort!
