Rest Day

WE MADE IT TO THE END OF PHASE ONE!!  Time to celebrate!!!  Grab some cucumber, lemon, lime, or herbs and have a mocktail!!!  Awesome work y'all!

Make sure to take your progress photos so you can see how far you came in Phase 1. If you’re willing to share your photos with the group, I highly encourage you to do so. It might be scary, but the affirmations and loving words are so deserved for your hard work and you might inspire a friend to join you! Also, take your measurements again so you can see how many inches you’ve lost. The scale isn't the only measuring device for results and often it's skewed so if you're not taking measurements, you might get deflated when in reality, there are a lot of positives happening!

Don’t forget your self-care today! Do Roll & Release or Stretch & Release, get a massage…whatever you can do to prepare yourself for brand-new workouts coming next week. And of course, watch the Weekly Obsession episode on Beachbody On Demand!

Day 14: Stretch & Release

Ahhh, Rest Day! I'm starting to look forward to this day. It's not as hard as it was week 1 because my body is like...GIVE ME REST ;) 

Have you tried Roll & Release or Stretch & Release yet? They're only 15 minutes and a great way to stretch sore, tired muscles. They need a break, and your body deserves self-care so it's ready to tackle Week 3!

CHECK-IN: Remember what I said in the beginning of this program—the scale should not be your only tool to measure progress. You’re building muscle, which means your body is changing in a way that may not show up on the scale. Are your clothes fitting differently? Do you feel stronger? Be proud of your hard work, and be patient—the results will come if you’re sticking to the program!  Autumn chatted with coaches in the Test Group and said she didn't even want us to weigh ourselves for the first two weeks because your body is adjusting to a different workout, different way of eating and with all those changes, it might be holding on to fluff that will soon get shredded.  I didn't see any results till week three and then I was a fan and a believer.  Don't give up before you get there!

On Sundays, make sure you watch the Weekly Obsession episode to see what the cast is up to. I look forward to these snippets and sometimes there are changes from how the program was originally planned out.  I don't like surprises so tune in.  You also can subscribe to Autumn's You Tube channel so you don't miss out on anything 80 Day Obsession.  I love the Fixate tips she shares too!
