I do feel like there are pull-ups and bulgarian split lunges in EVERY SINGLE workout though, haha. Ugh. I'd better be a pro at those by the end of the program! Bulgarian split squats BURN like crazy, and I can't do an unassisted pull-up right now. I actually use a band wrapped around a beam in our basement. Those are still challenging, but I plan on working up to pull-ups with an assist band and then (fingers crossed!) to REAL pull-ups with no help!

The Master's Hammer & Chisel: Week 2
Well, week 2 brings a whole new set of workouts. One cool thing about this program is the variety! I have only repeated 1 workout--Chisel Balance--and that actually was optional. I could have substituted Power Chisel (from the deluxe addition) in for the repeat. It's impossible to get bored with this program because there are SO many workouts in the schedule!

The Master's Hammer & Chisel: Week 1 Overview
It's time to get Hammered and Chiseled!! I was so very excited last year in late fall/early winter when Beachbody announced that they were about to release a new program called The Master's Hammer & Chisel. I have done programs by both trainers (Autumn Calabrese of the 21 Day Fix/Extreme and Sagi Kalev of Body Beast) and was looking forward to seeing what kind of program they would create together! Well, it is now here, and I am digging in!
Where do I begin? This program is challenging, but after each workout, I feel invincible! So many people who started before me kept mentioning that the program was challenging but doable, challenging but doable, and I had seen in my research that the program is not for beginners, so I was prepared for a challenge.
