I missed the shoulders and arms workout on Day 17 because I could not get up early enough to workout and then we had birthday festivities in the evening so I did not workout then either.
On Day 18 I did yesterday’s Shoulders and Arms and ARX workout. But… I mowed the lawn first and ran out of time for the entire workout so I just did 1/2. All the exercises once instead of twice. Then about 1/2 of ARX.
Till next time… Bring it!!
I was derailed for a few days. As usual, travel got the best of me. I missed YogaX on Thursday (day 11), then I missed Legs and Back on Friday (day 12), and then I missed KenpoX on Saturday (day 13.) Day 14 was a rest day and would have been a great day to make up a workout, I didn’t do it. Instead I did yard work all day.
But today I got back on track and did my day 15 Chest, Back and ARX workout. I really love this one. I like body weight exercises a lot and this day consists mostly of push-ups and pull-ups.
Tomorrow is Plyo.
Till next time… bring it!!
I had a great Shoulders and Arms workout today. The hotel I'm in has a very nice workout area complete with free weights.
I'm not watching my diet very well but I'm very happy that I am able to keep on track with my workouts.
Till next time... Bring It!!
Monday was day 8 and I stayed on track and did the Chest and Back workout. Altough I did have to modify it a bit. I'm staying somewhere that does not have and equipment for doing pull-ups so I skipped the pull-up excersizes. I was able to increase my reps on most of the exercises.
Tuesday was day 9 and I did Plyometrics. I had to do it in a hotel room so I felt like it was not as good of a workout as it could have been but it still felt great to get it in and stay on track.
Till next time... Bring It!!
Well, that’s it, my first week of this round of P90X is in the books. I decided to rest yesterday and do KenpoX today instead. My wife is still hanging with me and we had a great workout today. I always sweat a bunch during that workout and today was no exception.
Till next time… Bring it!!
I need to start working out in the morning again. All this week I have been working out after work and I have felt a little queasy during the workouts. I’m thinking it’s because I eat late lunches and then a snack shortly before being done with work. Today my wife and I did Legs and back and I literally thought that I was going to vomit during the entire workout. My wife is doing great and barley sweats during these workouts.
This has been a great week but at the same time it has been a frustrating week. I did P90X/P90X + for over a year and was feeling pretty good about my fitness. Then I went a couple months where I had spotty workouts and occasional runs. I have lost so much fitness in that short period of time. There are some pull up exercises where I can only do 1/2 of what I used to be able to do. And Plyo just about killed me.
The thing that keeps me going is the fact that I know it will get easier and easier everyday I continue to exercise.
Till next time… Bring it!!
YogaX was the workout of the day but I did Tony Horton’s Fountain of Youth Yoga instead. I didn’t wake up in time to do my P90X workout this morning so my wife and I did Fountain of Youth after I mowed the lawn. I really needed it, I have been very tight. My entire body is suffering from DOMS but is getting better little by little.
I am looking forward to Legs and Back tomorrow.
Till next time… Bring it!!
Today was Shoulders and arms and ARX. But WOW am I sore today. I am still feeling the DOMS from Monday’s workout, I can barely walk from Tuesday’s Plyo, and now I’m sure that on Thursday I will be hurting due to today’s Shoulders and Arms workout. I can’t wait until next week so I don’t hurt as much.
My wife is still hanging with me and it’s great to have someone to share this with.
Till next time… Bring it!!
Well, I’m officially on a roll here. I’ve made it two whole days! But seriously… Plyometrics kicked my butt today! Wow, it’s been way to long since I have done that workout and I felt it big time. There were only a few of exercises that I could not complete all the reps on so I felt pretty good about that. But I did feel like I was going to vomit during the second 1/2 of it. I think I ate too close to the workout.
My wife was there by my side today. She did great and it was nice to have a partner to do it with. And I think having her there helped me push through a few of the exercises.
Till next time… Bring It!!
Well I’m calling this Round 5 but it’s probably more than that due to the failed rotations of P90X Max and some other hybrid workouts that I tried.
I think that I have been away from P90X workouts for at least a month and I felt it today. I just got done with Chest, Back and Ab RipperX. My arms are toast but I feel great. Working out always makes me feel so good. Given that fact I can not figure out why I keep drifting away from it now and then. Maybe I’ll figure it out some day.
My wife has decided to join me for this Round. Well, at least Phase 1 of this Round. I’m not sure if she will like it enough to stick with it. I’m hoping that we can drive each other and help each other stay on track.
Well, wish me luck!
Till next time… Bring it!!
