Yikes–it appears I haven’t updated my blog in quite some time . . . sorry folks! All I can say is that life has been busy and I just haven’t had time to check in here as often as I should! However, I’m still pressing play even though I think I’ve reached the doldrums of [...]
It’s really late so this post is probably going to be short but I wanted to write an update before too much time slipped away. Today I completed Week 5 of my first round of P90X. I say “first round” because I’m working under the assumption that I’ll most likely be doing a second round [...]
Wow, I just realized as I sat down to start writing this post that today is Day 30 of my first round of the P90X Extreme Home Fitness Program. Woot! Yesterday was my first day of Week 5 and my first time doing the Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps workout. Since I didn’t know what to [...]
Wow. So a couple days ago I had my first encounter with Core Synergistics. I was expecting this workout to be tough. But not that tough! Let’s just say–it was the first time I ever felt sick to my stomach during a workout and wanted to cry. I think it started somewhere between the Sphinx [...]
Today is my first day of Week 4 doing P90X. Week 4 is considered a recovery week, but I’m not expecting it to be easy. There are two days of Yoga X and two days of Core Synergistics. I haven’t done the Core workout yet (my first time is tomorrow) but word on the streets [...]
Wow–Chest and Back seemed really difficult today. I was able to do better than last week on the majority of the exercises and used heavier weights. But there’s something I hate about this workout. The Back Flys are really awkward for me. I don’t feel like I’m getting the form right. I also seem really [...]
What a busy week! Today I completed Week 2 of the P90X program. As you can see I haven’t been able to keep up with my daily P90X posts. I did manage to survive another 7 days of hard-core P90X workouts. In some aspects this second week seemed easier than the first week because I [...]
Whew! It’s been a busy couple days so I haven’t been able to keep up with my posts. But don’t worry–I was still able to keep up with my P90X workouts. :o)
So, what’s the deal with P90X Yoga?? Wow! I definitely have a love/hate relationship with this workout. At first I’m was really thrown off because, well–I’m really not used to seeing Tony in bare feet and tights! But once I finally got settled in (luckily I was a little prepared because there is some yoga [...]
So today was my first experience with the Shoulders and Arms workout from P90X. I think I got more out of the workout than my first time with the Chest and Back routine. The weights I used were pretty small. 5 pounds on the really tough ones (Tony is nice enough to warn you when [...]
