P90X Day 8 (Round 2 of 2011) – Ab Ripper X, Chest And Back
Wow, day 8 already. P90X week 1 went by fast! Back to push-ups and pull-ups today. Day 8 of P90X’s Chest and Back workout was INTENSE today. I learned that I really need to eat half a banana or something before doing this routine. I was pretty wasted by the end (we did do Ab Ripper first, which probably didn’t help).
Some of my numbers were up, some where down. It was a mixed bag. But I felt I pushed harder overall today, focusing a bit more on form, larger weights, wider grip on the pull-up bar, etc. I’m hoping small changes like this will pay off.
Nutrition was pretty good today. I did choose to have some desert at lunch, but kept my calorie goals in mind and did not overdo it. I feel pleased with this weekend overall. Usually weekends were a massive cheat meal for me (read this as a big burger and fries type of cheat, or pizza), but instead I kept thing in mind, at fairly clean, and feel good about it.
Tomorrow is Plyo day. Ready to see if I can push myself a bit more tomorrow than what I did last week.
