P90x Day 63: Stretch X & End of Week 9

P90x Stretch X was nice.  I’ve been pretty sore and stiff this week, so it was good to loosen up.
Week 9 went good.  I have tons of energy for the workouts and have been working my hardest at them.  I’d like to lose weight a little faster.  I feel like I’ve been stuck in the [...]

P90x Day 62: Kenpo X

I was thinking during the P90x Kenpo X workout today that it would be fun to have a punching bag or even multiple punching bags to use in this workout.  There are lots of combos and kicks so I think it would be fun to have bags set up to practice on.
Kenpo X never fails [...]

P90x Day 61: Legs & Back

P90x Legs & Back was brutal today.  The workout is getting easier, so I am able to push myself much harder in it.  I can do the normal wall squat, and the single-leg wall squat a hundred times better now.
My legs were so weak at the start of P90x that this workout was very mentally [...]

P90x Day 60: Yoga X

My brother recently started P90x, and when he said he was thinking about not doing the P90x Yoga X workout, I instantly tried to talk him into continuing doing it.
I know that I HATED Yoga X the first few times I did it.  I thought Yoga was a waste of time for me, and I [...]

P90x Day 59: Shoulders & Arms

My shoulders felt it in today’s Shoulders & Arms P90x workout.  I’ve been working on pushing myself to muscle failure.  I don’t really care about putting on much muscle mass right now, I just want to work as hard as I can so I can lose fat!
The resistance bands work great in this workout.  I’m [...]

P90x Day 58: Plyometrics

Today I was really sore from yesterday’s P90x Chest & Back workout.  It was a very hard workout!
Plyometrics is one of my least favorite workouts, probably because it is a weak area for me.  I’m glad P90x has a workout like this in it, as I know it is very beneficial for me.
My balance wasn’t [...]

P90x Day 57: Chest & Back is Back

It’s been awhile, but it’s back! Today’s P90x workout was Chest & Back.  It is such a draining workout, I completely worked my chest and back until exhaustion.
There is no way to get through this workout without feeling it.  When I wasn’t even halfway through it, my muscles were already thoroughly exhausted.
I really pushed until [...]

P90x Day 56: Phase 2 Completed!

Stretch X went fine as usual. Today marks the end of week 8 of P90x and the end of phase 2.  It’s going by so fast!
Overall I’d say week 8 was great.  This whole week had an emphasis on recovery and abs.  The recovery was nice.  Recovery weeks are definitely easier on me than the [...]

P90x Day 55: Yoga X

The first couple of times I did the P90x Yoga X workout I couldn’t even hold upward dog without keeping my knees off the ground. I wasn’t strong enough to do that the whole time.
This workout I had so much energy and was able to push myself hard.  It really is hard to stay low [...]

P90x Day 54: Core Synergistics

Today’s P90x workout was Core Synergistics. I can’t do too many push-ups yet, so exercises like prison cell push-ups are very tiring! I start out feeling great on the first few and then I… get slower…. & slower… and then I start huffing and puffing and feel ready to fall down on the floor.
Over all [...]
