Week 5, Day 1 & 2

Day 30
   Today was Cardio.  We're back on a similar routine to weeks 1-3, for the next three weeks.  But there's a few workout replacements.  I think legs and back is gone, and instead is shoulders chest and triceps... but I'll need to double check.  That workout is tomorrow.
   I felt much better today than I did yesterday.  I was able to do nearly every exorcise (at my own pace) except for one of the plyometric "jump shots."  Well, I skipped the "Dreya Rolls" again.  I really wish I could do them.  I also had to pause and let my heart rate level off before I could continue a few times.  Still, I didn't just let the workout continue while I caught my breath (which I've done in the past, and will probably do again in the future).
   Food should be simple today.  I had another yogurt for breakfast and I plan to have some roasted veggies at some point.  Also, I'm going make a couple of real-fruit smoothies for my wife and I.
   For consistency sake I weighed myself today.
   274.5 lbs.  That's 24.5 lbs of weight lost!  Still Bringin' It!  1/3 of the way through!

Day 29
   Rough day of Core exorcises.  My core strength is still minimal.  I could feel my body working hard on every exorcise though, and I was cautious to make sure I was engaging my trunk muscles and my core-band (from the chest to the thighs).  But, like I said, it was rough.  I'm getting stronger, and doing more reps of each workout, but I can hardly keep up with those guys.
   Food was a switch up yesterday, because of the exams at school.  I grabbed a yogurt for breakfast, and a couple protein bars for snacks.  I had a turkey sandwich for lunch, and some lean-chili for dinner.
