My P90X Experience: Days 51-68

Alright, so it’s finally starting to feel like I’m on the home stretch! After my second “recovery” week I started Phase 3 (Week 9) with a much higher level of intensity. Luckily this time around I didn’t have the same problem with Core Synergistics as during Week 4. The first day of Week 9 was Chest and Back, and with my new found pull-up strength I was...

Well, I somehow managed to make it through Phase 1 of my first round with P90X. Although, the past couple days have been pretty rough. When I woke up yesterday I was in the worst pain I’ve been in since starting P90X. When I went to bed Friday night my back felt a little sore but when it was time to get out of bed Saturday morning it had moved past sore to not being able to move....
