REVABS WORKOUT REVIEW, PHASE 2 WEEK 3
Week 3 of Phase 2 of REVABS is in the books. This weeks schedule consisted of…
POWER INTERVALS 2 on days 1 and 4
FAT BURNING ABS on day 2
STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE on day 3 and 6 and finally
REV IT UP on 5
As with the progress of Phase 1 some things are getting easier as the training goes on.
This week though I felt quite a bit more tired then usual and it seemed like some of the of workouts went on forever because of that.
Tomorrow is a day of “mercy” so hopefully will recharge and be ready for week 4.
With this week complete 21 workouts remain which with the days of rest comes out to just over 3 weeks. I’m looking forward to these last few weeks of workouts and hopefully everything coming together for great results.
Results I’ve seen so far have been, my back not aching like it used to or did at the beginning of the workouts. My arms and thighs getting better definition from all the lunges and presses. There has been some definition around the abs, though not as much as I thought there would be, but some of that has to do with the lack of weight loss which has been at a standstill.
As week 4 begins, the schedule will repeat week 1, starting with FAT BURNING ABS day 1 and 4, POWER INTERVALS 2 day 2 and 5, STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE being done only once this week on day 3 and REV IT UP to close out the week on day 6.

So here’s looking forward to the next 21 workouts.

REVABS WORKOUT REVIEW, PHASE 2 WEEK 2
Well week 2 of Phase 2 of Revabs is in the books and overall I felt it was a much more productive now that I was familiar with the exercises.
The week started off with STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE and MERCILESS ABS. I reversed the workouts around to do Merciless abs first since I felt I got a lot more out of it by doing it that way, and then followed up either right away or later int he day with Strength and Endurance. Merciless abs was a quick 15 min workout and Strength and Endurance about 45.
REV IT UP was done twice this week and and a important note is that in the materials you receive with this it states it’s a 30 min work out and to my surprise it was a 45 min workout. Doing these workouts on the road and fitting in the workouts based on time kinda threw a wrench in the works, so take notice, leave 40-45 min for this workout. In places where Brett mentions about revving high I didn’t feel I was there, however as the workout continued my heart rate did get up to where it should be.
POWER INTERVALS 2, as in the first round does a great job of getting your heart pounding and the sweat dripping, and If I remember right “sprawls” are back… again. As in Phase 1, I had some issues with the sprawls and so it continues. What I’ll be doing though is just staying with the squat thrusts. I get a lot more out of them then struggling through the sprawls.
FAT BURNING ABS also has sprawls which have I’ve changed to the squat thrusts for the reason I already mentioned, and another exercise in this workout is “Mountain Climbers” which gives me problems with my feet and knees, so I will have to find a way to modify those to get the most out them.
I’m still happy with the workouts and like the way they change around a little more then Phase 1 did. This coming week I’ll be doing most of the workouts at home so that should help me stay on a steady schedule of working out and drinking Shakeology.
Well that’s the review for the week, feel free to contact me about any questions about the workout, Beachbody products, or any interest in becoming a Beachbody coach.
Till the next review

REVABS REVIEW PHASE 2 WEEK 1
Well Phase 2 of REVABS has now began and week 1 is complete.
The workouts in Phase 2 consist of
FAT BURNING ABS 40 min
POWER INTERVALS 30 min
STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE 40 min followed by MERCILESS ABS 15 min
and REV IT UP 40 min.
There were a few new exercises in Phase 2 and other moves were just modifications of what was in Phase 1, for example in Phase 1 you did “plank” position in Phase 2 you did a “walking plank”. there were more of the infamous “sprawls” that gave me problems in Phase 1.. well they’re back in Phase 2 and in more then one of the workouts.
Still more lunge type exercises but again modifications in order to work the abs at different angles to get the most out of the workouts.
I did like the change of pace with the moves, and also the way the rotation is because it will keep the exercises fresh.
When doing the REV IT UP, I liked the workout but didn’t feel like I got my heart rate up to what I should’ve been during the workout, so I’ll have to see how it goes next week to see if I can get my heart rate up to where it should be at the right times.
These workouts call for some heavier weights and less reps, which the problem with that is I’m doing these workouts on the road for the most part so it’s not going to be practical to be carrying weights with me, however I will be starting to carry a resistance band with me in order to get whatever benefits I can with modifications on the road that I can.
While home I’ll be continuing with drinking Shakeology which as a Beachbody Coach receive discounts on all Beachbody products and continuing to push play to keep working to get the best results I can.
