Hi swanso,
Been doing this for 3 weeks and am really enjoying it. However, lately, although I've been following the program to the "T", I am not longer getting tired. Infact I have "room" for 2-3 extra workouts after tht. Am I not doing it right? I tried increasing the weights, but I'm lifting as heavy as i can.
Btw, I've gained some muscle so am quite happy with this. But somehow the workout isn't giving the "kick in the groin" type of exhaustion tht i used to get before.
I've also gained approx 2Kgs in the last 2 weeks.
