Wednesday – Week 19 Arms, 2km walk and Yoga I keep getting this aching pain in my thigh up to my hip so instead of catching up on the rest of the week’s workouts I foam rolled instead.ġ session of HIIT cardio training (optional) I started with Week 20 Legs and I think I pulled something. Then Week 20 came along and I didn’t start my BBG workouts until Friday. I started Week 19 all refreshed and definitely motivated. I still did my weekly yoga class and a couple of walks. Week 19 came along but I was really drained so I listened to my body and took the week off BBG. Week 18 was just as painful! Week 18 Legs had some new moves like kettlebell sumo squats, X hops and medicine ball lunges with a twist. Week 18 Arms had lay down snap jumps, decline push ups and weighted burpees! These exercises really pushed me! Kayla really ups the ante for phase 2! Week 17 Legs has barbell squat pulses, weighted burpees and lay down burpees! Week 17 Arms has drop push ups, medicine ball push ups (I just used my dumbbell) and decline push ups! Wow, did these moves really push me! When I started Week 17 I had no idea what I was in for. It has been through some BBG 2.0 workouts after all! I even started feeling guilty if something happened but I knew there was nothing to worry about and that my little baby was perfectly fine. I definitely felt it the next day and even had a couple of minor cramps which had me worried. Another opportunity to be the official photographer :) It was a hot day so I started feeling it halfway through and then just paced myself. I had planned to tell them I wasn’t feeling well again but we had such a great turnout and the pre-training looked nice and easy so I ended up giving it a go. We had organized a pre-training workout because many were starting #thekaylamovement and we had a lot of newbies. It was hard going to the January meet-up without telling them I was pregnant. So it was time to say goodbye to the BBG workouts but not the community. However, my guide is not suitable for those women who are currently pregnant or have recently given birth. My Bikini Body Training Guide has been proven to be a useful tool for mum’s who are a few months post-pregnancy and wanting their pre-baby body and strength back. The first result was actually from Kayla’s website and it said this: But I wasn’t sure if I should continue with BBG 2.0 so I headed to Google lol! I don’t know if it was hormones or the excitement knowing I was pregnant but I wanted to workout again. The next day was what should have been Week 24 and actually saw me full of energy. I love the BBG Perth girls and I can’t wait to tell them I’m pregnant :) I also decided to be the official photographer and took some great action shots! It was a great catch-up and no-one judged me for not working out. And the BBG Perth Christmas catch-up was on this weekend! I didn’t want to miss this so I still went anyway and told them I wasn’t feeling well and just sat through the workout while the girls kicked ass. I was so excited but couldn’t share the news with anyone yet. I thought it was my adrenal fatigue getting worse so I was very happy it was because I was pregnant!īy the end of the week I had been to the doctors and done a blood test to confirm my pregnancy. I had been feeling more and more tired each day and knew it had to be more than the BBG workouts getting tougher. I thought my period was finally coming (it was a week late) but by Week 23 I realized it was time to take a pregnancy test and I wasn’t that surprised to learn that I was pregnant. The weekend for Week 22 should really say I spent the whole time in bed and didn’t move. I also joined a 30 day unlimited Bikram Yoga centre and looked to this as a balance to the intensity of the BBG workoutsįriday – Week 21 Abs and 1 hour trampoline I worked out that if I finished BBG 2.0 I would enjoy a nice break over Christmas and then I could re-start BBG with everyone else. And then Kayla announced #thekaylamovement starting January 11 2016. The workouts for Week 22 were just as intense! I was really struggling at this point and wanting to quit. It was definitely fun trying to wash my hair after this workout! The Arm workout for Week 21 was just as tough! Drop push ups (I didn’t know there was anything worse than lay down push ups), in & out push ups, commandos and caterpillar walk. Week 21 introduced straight leg deadlifts in the Leg workout that also included sumo jump squats, reverse lunge and knee lift, double pulse box jumps and burpee tuck jumps! This workout kicked my butt! Which of course would be the intention with it being leg day! All this with the intense Phase 2 workouts. In my BBG 2.0 Weeks 17-20 review I talked about struggling with an injury and stress eating.
