Today again, I promptly woke up at 4am and got started with the routine. The schedule indicated Shoulders & Arms followed by Ab Ripper X. I came in to this routine expecting another Chest & Back style workout, and thinking, "Well, I will probably be exhausted in 30 minutes." Instead, I completed the entire Shoulders & Arms routine! I even completed the bonus round at the end. Shoulders & Arms is my favorite routine, so far. I however, ran out of time this morning to do the Ab Ripper X routine. Honestly, I was not looking forward to doing the Ab routine, but skipping it is not acceptable. I need to adjust my wake-up time to 3:30am to allow enough time to complete the entire line-up.

I do not(yet) have a set of dumbbells, so I am using resistance bands as a substitute. I think a dumbbell workout would be significantly more precise, as with the resistance bands, the range of movement as well as finding the right resistance and placement(loop size, if any) is somewhat awkward. It may get better though, as I get more familiarized with the bands and the routines.
