Easing into the new program

So far, after 3 workouts in the new program, New Rules of Lifting for Abs, I've felt slightly sore afterward, including in my abs. It's not a motion-limiting soreness, but enough that I remember I did something good! I'm liking this program. I don't know how well it will hold my attention.  The book says to go 6-8 times through each workout. My log has 8 prepared, but I'm fine with taking the low end if I'm getting bored. The book also says it should take 40 minutes. With a 7 minute warm up, I took 1:02. For the exercises with "2-3 sets" I chose two. So, when the metabolic work gets added in during later phases, I'm sure I'll need to abbreviate the workout. I want it to be right around an hour.

On the eating front, things are also going well. We're still eating mostly Paleo at home with a few things off the list here or there. Last night was a treat night. We had spaghetti! That was a "treat" selection made by my son when we were grocery shopping a while back. Instead of candy or fruit or something like that, he chose spaghetti noodles and brown rice. Yesterday, he put back the chocolate piece he had selected and chose living wheat grass when he saw it. Yes, my kids can be odd at times! :)
