The end of last week got really busy so I did not have a chance to write much on this blog about how my P90X workouts were going. So here is a quick post recapping those days. Last Thursday was Yoga X. This was the first workout I’ve been able to complete (minus the 17 [...]
Day 3 is one of my favs – P90x Shoulders and Arms….and Ab Ripper X, of course. I learned just how much my strength had increased since the start of round 1. I learned that I really, really need 25′s. I may try some curls at 30 lbs next week, but 20′s were feeling a [...]
Hey all, day 2 was Plyo X for me. In 57 minutes I burned through nearly 900 calories. I was watching my heart rate during Plyo X very carefully. I was averaging around 160 for the entire routine, but had some occassional spikes to 170 (which is VERY high for me), but for the most [...]
Tomorrow I begin a new P90X round. The first round I had pretty good results, but going for even more this time around. The last two weeks I’ve been overly relaxed on the diet, so I’m honing that in as well as getting back to the routines. With this round, I’m adding a fat burning [...]
Ok, obviously I fell way behind on blogging and updating with my P90X stats… In mid-May, around week 10, I came down sick with a throat infection. That set me back one week in P90X. But I kept going. Until the vasectomy, that is. I did not get to complete the last 3 workouts. And [...]
I’ve been busy, so sorry for not blogging about my P90X routines. And to make matters worse, I’m feeling ill right now (low grade fever, sore throat, and hoping its not strep). But….to catch everyone up on what’s been going on… I’m still doing Cardio X on resistance days and it feels like it working [...]
Busy P90X day for me. Shoulders and Arms and Ab Ripper this morning, Cardio X this afternoon. I’m falling in love with Cardio X. Tough 43 minute workout that makes me sweat a lot more than Kenpo does. I turned on the calorie burn function on my watch and it put it right at 600 [...]
P90X Day 58 was Plyometrics for me. After just switching back to Energy Maximizer and doing the extra cardio routine yesterday (and not sleeping well at all last night), I was a bit tired today. I pushed through but really felt lagging in a lot of it. I sweat a ton and kept heart rate [...]
Today began P90X Phase 3 for me. It also began a determination to push harder and do more to shed more fat before I begin round 2 in late June/early July. So I’m doing an extra Cardio X on resistance days. Today was Chest & Back. I have not done this routine since week 3 [...]
P90X Day 56 was Yoga X…the last workout at the end of phase 2. Today I felt was one of my best Yoga experiences yet. I pushed hard, I sweat like CRAZY, and got a lot out of it. I think I found my “happy place” with Yoga, so to speak. But it is something [...]
