Well, I finally started the Captain America / Body-4-Life workout and after the 1st week, I can tell you that:
1. I am sore beyond belief!
2. Chris Evans is one bad mo-fo if he can actually complete ALL of the exercises!
3. Did I mention I’m sore?
4. I feel better for having done it!
I stuttered, I sputtered, I stumbled, but when the engine finally turned over, I was able to complete a full week of the routine. Now, when I say completed a full week, I mean of course, an abbreviated routine. I still have some logistics to resolve before I can do certain exercises, such as a pull-up. It’s not that I can’t do one, its just that I have no where to do one!! I checked the usual sporting good stores and all they have are the devices that “mount” over a door frame/jam and then what? I hang down to my knees and try to do a pull-up? I don’t think so. Much less, I have no door frame in my exercise wing to attach it to!! I think I may have to jerry-rig a pipe-type device to hang from my floor joists. Maybe gas-line type pipes with the 90 degree corners and such…..the mental wheels are turning now my friends. Stay tuned for more!
TTFN!
