I personaly dont use it anymore, but it was so good during those first few months. I would advise, at least at the begining, to use My fitness pal for following macros and calories. I could not follow it for few reasons, but it gives you a starting point and idea of what to eat.
It is one thing to watch a video of how to execute exercise, but whole new ball game if someone can correct you. Gym patrons and trainers have helped me with form many times. No, jocks are not judging nor laughing at your fat body in the gym. if you dont want to be distracted use heaphones. And while you can do all of AX-1 at home with very little equipement taking that time to get to gym, to smell the air, see other work beside you and take from all of that vibe can not be replictaed at home. Many will disagree.įrom personal experience, you have access to a commercial gym, use one. AX-1 gives you a great starting point in world of fitness, regardless of age. However, you have to start building from base level.
Are there other programs ? Ofcourse there are and I understand desire for MAx Size or Max Shred. Got some muscle and a lot of confidence.Īllow me to share some observations from this journey that has just begun. Was toying with final exam idea when sickness hit me and was in bed for a few weeks. As final exam was coming along I bought Beast and stoped AX-1. Second run of the program was easier from perspective of knowing how to use form on most exercises, but very challenging as it should be. By the time end of month 3 came family was going on vacation before final exam. Let me elaborate.įirst time I got stuck on 400 challenge, like many others. When I say I did 2 runs, have to point out I never graduated. Reason why it is great to begin with is because it gets your body into shape and mind into state needed for more advanced program like AX-2 or Beast. If executed properly it will kick your ass. Three days is weights, two days "cardio" ( many styles of cardio I might add ) and two days of rest. It is a tough program that brings results.
it is full body exercise program with emphasis on athtletic performance - meaning you will get in shape and cry trying. While that is true, it would a great mistake to approach it as an easy program. Many refer to AX-1 as a good platform to start for any beginer. This was just what was needed and so much more. Needed a program to build some muscle, get in shape and loose weight. Really liked what he has to say and after a week of pondering ( searched on Google far and wide for any informaton ) decided to buy AX-1. About a month in stumebeld on Jeff on Youtube. Sure enough fat slowly started to fade and that got me interested. Cleaned up diet, removed junk food, sugar, etc.
I was 40 at the the time, borderline obese with 1,77 meters and 100 Kg ( sorry Imperials, my mind works in metric ), Started out with some body weight exercise using Android app. I decided to take steps to better myself. With so many people poping in here asking questions that I was asking some 10 months ago figured it would be good to make a port with my experience with AX-1 and Athlean as such thus far.Ī brief introduciton, you are more the free to skip this.Īt the end of February 2018.
