Today ends 12 weeks with P90X. Next week is a “recovery week”. Then what? Start over? Go back to the same old, same old? I’m not sure. Part of me would like to keep going with it, part of me would like a break. I’ll take my recovery week next week and then see how [...]
It’s been a couple of weeks since I posted about P90X. It’s still going - week 8 was a rest week and I definitely rested. At least from anything that had to do with P90X. I’m at a point in my life and my workouts where I just don’t want that kind of [...]
This week is recovery week for phase 2. I cannot believe we’ve been through close to 60 days of this system. Last week I did two workouts with Tony and one on my own. We went out of town and I had to remember the legs and back workout so I could get [...]
Today is Sunday, the end of week 6 (I’ve lost track of days). We are in phase II and I feel a little guilty today. As I wrote in my reflections post, I have decided to continue faithfully with the weight workouts and keep Plyos for a rainy day. I run and [...]
This was the rest of week 4 or “recovery week”. I didn’t feel like I needed a recovery week so I went to yoga, got a few runs in, took a full day off. Core synergistics wasn’t very recovery anyway! That was hardcore and a lot of the exercises were even too hardcore [...]
I’ve got some catching up to do. It’s been a busy week.
Day 18 - Yoga. Well, I did yoga, but not with Tony. I opted for Yoga at Healing Tree, a local studio near my home. It was 1.25 hours and I worked and stretched plenty. In fact, it felt great.
Day 19 - Legs and [...]
End of week 2, beginning of week 3…
Day 14 - X Stretch or RestSince I was starting to feel better from my head cold on this day, I decided to rest from all things P90X. Instead, we went for a walk on the beach, which was much better than stretching in the home gym since [...]
Well, this was a rough week. Michael had a cold at the beginning of the week and I had a cold at the end. Needless to say we missed a few workouts. That’s ok, I don’t feel bad about it at all!
Day 10 - Shoulders, biceps, triceps. I increased the weights this [...]
On to week 2 of P90X. Weeks 1 through 3 are the same workout. Week 4 is a “rest” and then you move on.
Day 8 was Chest and Back again. This workout is killer. Tony Horton has us do so many different sets of push ups it’s unbelievable. Michael and I are [...]
Today was day 7 of P90X and boy was I tired! My body is not as sore anymore, but it’s still tender. I ended up doing part of Yoga X. It’s a 1.5 hour power yoga workout and I just couldn’t take it. I was tired and needed something gentle.
It’s ok, though, I’m [...]
