Day 23 was fundamentals 2 in pilates and back and biceps in Lift-4. The pilates workout again is a little easier each time I do a workout, although there are definitely some exercises that I can barely do, like the side double leg lifts. And stretching forward is still very much a challenge.
The back and biceps workout in Lift-4 was another 50/50 workout, with three circuits of lifting, each lasting three rounds, then three rounds of HIIT cardio, cycling through three cardio exercises for 1 minute, 45 seconds, and 30 seconds, and three rounds of two different core exercises. Both the lifting portion and the cardio portion were very hard today. There are not really any new exercises, it is just doing them back-to-back with little to no rest in between is tough, even for the very fit people in the videos. And, it does not take living a lot of weight to get tired. You can easily, especially if you are a beginner or are getting back in shape, get by using 10 to 25-pound dumbells, depending on the particular exercise.
