Jen Asks:
OK. Just to make sure I am only the right page. I started buffing today..Do you want me to buff for like the next 3 weeks or so whenever I am supposed to boost again. Just want to make sure I am doing everything right. And on the WO calender. On Wednesday you want me to do another 20 min of cardio. Is that another HIIT or just another form of cardio. Oh and how do you add weights to the one leg ball leg press?
XOXO
Jen

HI! First off it would really help me to see your cycle day and weight in your daily blog posts. I need you to know them and I need to know them 
I’m not sure where you are at or how long your cycles have been. We can add a week of buffing into your routine if we need to customize it to you cycle. Just let me know
So if you are starting buffing this week the workouts are as follows:
