Dexter-Ann Arbor Run 2011 (My Second Half)

Round 2: Insanity/P90X Doubles Hybrid Schedule

May 10, 2010 By Amanda

After a couple weeks of experimentation, I think I finally figured out my Round 2 Insanity/P90X Doubles Hybrid Schedule. For my first round of P90X I followed the Classic plan for the first 60 days and then did Doubles for the last 30 days. This time around I decided to start Week 1 with Doubles […]
