Phase III-IV Cardio/Abs 200

I am still cussing myself for skipping all those days. Although I am making up for them by adding on to the end of the work-out, I feel that I lost ground and now am trying to regain where I was before. My advice is do NOT skip any days if at all possible....and most definately do NOT skip entire weeks like I did. I think it actually set me back 2 days for every one I skipped.
