I think the HEAVY DUTY system has completely changed me psychologically.
.. even in this short amount of time. I never know if I will every disengage
from these types of routines. I'm certain I'll go on
to the consolidated workouts, especially if I get into some kind of
sports activity... I've youngsters, so I have to do a great deal of sports. That being the case I'll reduce my overall physical anxiety and almost certainly
take advantage from the consolidated routine... I know it sounds mad to anyone
who has not attempted it yet, but man... what a
difference I am seeing currently. My arms have grown 1/2
inch already. They were about fifteen to 15 1/4 at the start
in the program (flexed measurement) and today they
were practically fifteen 3/4 inch. I can't think what I am seeing!!!
