Piyo Review Week 4 & Month 1 Progress

I noticed that Piyo started to pick up the pace in week 3, but it was nothing compared to week 4. Here was my workout schedule for this week:

Monday- Sweat

Tuesday- Core

Wednesday- REST

Thursday- Buns

Friday- Drench

Saturday- Strength Intervals

Sunday- Sweat

The new workout that was introduced during this week was Drench. Most of the things that pop up when I google Piyo or see Piyo reviews on YouTube are talking about Drench. This is the most difficult Piyo workout so far (Strength Intervals is a close second)! It takes a lot of the difficult moves from the other workouts and combines them, then adds on some other moves as well (including that Piyo Flip you see pictured up there—which I can only do because I’ve done it in classes before). I was definitely sweating by the end of it! It’s also the longest Piyo workout, at a little over 40 minutes. It was a very difficult 40 minutes!

Now onto my progress! Piyo is an 8 week program and I wanted to check in on my progress at the end of week 4 to see if the program really works! I am posting a picture below of how I keep up with how I am doing. I am not going to lie, I was a little disappointed when I weighed myself this morning because I actually weighed more than last Sunday. But if I am being truly honest, this week was not the best for me nutrition-wise. One of my students brought me Girl Scout cookies, we had a little gathering for a coworker’s birthday one day, I had a couple Lean Cuisines instead of making healthy meals a few nights, and I just wasn’t being a smart snacker. I’m not perfect! I am going to do a much better job next week! J

So there you have it people! It’s not always about the weight! Before starting with BeachBody, I was seeing pounds come off almost as fast (during good months), but I NEVER saw this much of a difference in inches in that short amount of time! I feel great about my measurements—I am not starving myself and I am enjoying my workout program!
