I am actually doing something very similar to you Shelly. I have tried doing the programs (SN and JRD Max) but struggled to stay consistent for various reasons. For now at least doing the WODs mixed in with some simple strength/weights exercices has worked best for me. My main goal is to build strength - being able to do even just one pull-up would be nice 😊 and to get better at jumping rope in general. Tangible goals to works towards as mentioned in Dan’s recent post would be brilliant for this as I completely agree that working towards a goal is a really important motivation.

That sounds like a good plan! Thanks Shelly

Thanks Joe, will try it again after a while 👍

I recently got the 2lb rope and tried it for the first time yesterday. I fear that I won’t be able to use it very much, way too heavy !

Interesting to hear that. I managed to stick more or less to the first month but then fell off the wagon… might give it another go. Thanks for the inspiration 😉

Great results, congratulations April! That program is no joke so sticking to it is a big achievement in itself. Did you do any other type of exercice along with it or « simply » the program?

Happy birthday! Good start 👍

Thanks for your post Joe. I had been going back and forward with whether to try this program. Decided to go for it yesterday and discovered that it could be exactly what I was looking for in a program. So I am happy to join the challenge :-) and starting the weekly program on a Saturday is actually not a bad idea!
