More About Going Primal – The Primal Blueprint

Published on November 23, 2011 By Brent

Oh to eat like Grok…. In my previous post I talked about a move to following a more paleo/primal eating plan than what P90X plan or The Abs Diet offers.  My wife thinks its a neat concept and supports me, but I think she may think I’m nuts.  But before you pass judgement, I thought [...]

P90X Day 10 (Round 2 of 2011) – Shoulders and Arms, Ab Ripper X

Published on August 16, 2011 By Brent

I was smart today before my P90X workout:  I remembered to eat a bit of something!  I decided that to push through the entire workout at the intensity I wanted to push I’d need a bit of something on my stomach, and a half a banana seemed to do the trick. So my Shoulders and [...]

P90X Day 9 (Round 2 of 2011) – Plyo X

Published on August 15, 2011 By Brent

P90X Plyo X…get your little bucket near by!  At least, that is what I thought I was going to feel like.  Woke up at 5am, had a headache, had a 2 year old trying to make my life miserable from 4:30 until the alarm went off, but really wanted a good push today. And push [...]

P90X Day 8 (Round 2 of 2011) – Ab Ripper X, Chest And Back

Published on August 14, 2011 By Brent

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 [...]

P90X Day 78 + The Abs Diet – Ab Ripper X, Chest Shoulders And Triceps

Published on March 20, 2011 By Brent

Today may end up being a very eventful day with my P90X round.  It is day 78, and I think I tweaked my left elbow. Actually, I don’t think it was the exercise today that did it, but rather another activity.  CST and ABX were fine this morning.  I pushed hard and felt like I [...]

P90X Day 76 + The Abs Diet – Kenpo X

Published on March 19, 2011 By Brent

I’m writing this a day late, because I had a date night with my wife last night (and was not going to take the time to blog when I’m spending time with her), but yesterday’s P90X was Kenpo X. Nutrition?  Not great. So a week in review:  Workouts went great, nutrition was not so good.  [...]

P90X Day 51 + The Abs Diet – Core Synergistics

Published on February 21, 2011 By Brent

Happy Presidents Day everyone!  I had the day off of my day job, so I got to sleep in a bit and then press play on P90X Core Synergistics.  Plus, I had time to do the bonus round!  I wish I would have wore my heart rate monitor.  I pushed hard.  Only had a lot [...]

P90X Day 37 – Plyo X and P90X Day 38 – Back And Biceps, Ab Ripper X

Published on February 11, 2010 By Brent

Another catch-up post. Business has kept me busy at night, so writing here has not always been easy. P90X Day 37 was Plyo X. I felt very, very drained when I first started. But the further I went into it, the harder I could push. I guess just getting the heart pounding and blood flowing [...]

P90X Day 33 And 34 – Legs And Back, Ab Ripper X, Kenpo X

Published on February 8, 2010 By Brent

Playing catch-up yet again on posting, one of these days I’ll stay caught up! Friday was Legs And Back and Ab Ripper X. I backed my calories back down to “2400″ (Level 2) but I have a feeling it is a bit too few. I felt weak during most of the routine. I pushed hard [...]

P90X Catchup Post For Days 60 – 65

Published on May 20, 2009 By Brent

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 [...]
