I ended P90x at 171 lbs. In the 9 months after it I gained 35 lbs. WHAT HAPPENED???
I finished P90x and it is a great feeling to have actually stuck with something and finish it.
Towards the end I fell behind and failed to write a post daily, but I kept pressing play and followed through with the workouts and now I have finished my first run through of P90x!
So many times have [...]
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 [...]
My hamstring was all better, and I felt like I had tons of energy during today’s P90x Chest, Shoulders & Triceps workout.
Resistance bands are kind of fun to use, partly because I enjoy trying new things. In the past I always used dumbells at a fitness center (when I USED to workout) and I never even had thought about using resistance [...]
The end of the week (rest day) is a nice break from all the hard P90x workouts. It feels like my reward for living through another week of P90x.
I didn’t want to skip doing stretch x, because after it I always feel more loose and it seems like it makes my muscles happy, sooooo yeah, [...]
My workout schedule has been erratic. Lately I’ve been working out late, late, late at night, and my P90x Kenpo X workout today suffered because of it. I was throwing half awake punches and kicks, and my hamstring was still sore from pulling it yesterday. Thankfully, it’s not bad enough to keep me from doing P90x.
P90x Day [...]
Yoga. It’s frustrating, but yet it’s relaxing.
I am experiencing huge improvements in Yoga. My increased flexibility has helped me be able to do the Yoga moves better than before.
There are a series of moves in the P90x Yoga X workout that I still have huge trouble with. The standing splits, and half moon to twisting half [...]
I love the Back & Biceps workout! Today was the first day I’ve done it. Lots of curls in this workout!
Resistance bands take some time getting used to. I was pretty clumsy using the bands today. It sometimes is a little tricky situating them right under your foot and making sure there is even tension [...]
In today’s P90x workout I went all out. Plyometrics was a doozy! I pushed myself to the point that I had to back up a little because I thought I might vomit on the carpet if I kept going that hard.
Plyometrics is always hard (ALL the P90x workouts are hard), today though, I was ten times better at [...]
Truth be told, I don’t like doing cardio workouts. I do however, like doing workouts like today’s Chest, Shoulders & Tricep routine. I enjoy lifting weights or using resistance bands, which this workout had quite a bit of.
This workout had me at muscle failure right away during the first exercise, which was 3-in-1 push-ups. I’m not [...]
