Day 23

ok so I've been slacking on my blog. but not slacking too bad on my p90x! I missed friday's workout and did legs and back today. Tomorrow is the first day of rest week. I will throw in about 3 days of cardio outside of the p90x plan during rest week. I can't wait to do the new workout Core synergistics, i hear its real good

Day 15+day 16

Day 15- Today It was back to chest and back and while I improved my numbers in the first round, I was spent when the 2nd round came along and just about ran out of gas on the Dive-bomber pushups. I hate those so much. That was the last of Chest/back for a few weeks... just when i start to get good at it.

Day 14- Two week recap

Well today was Day 14 of the program. I did Stretch X today and it kind of made me more sore than I already was. So basically I've done the workouts religiously but my diet hasn't been as good as it should. Spring break really threw me off, but it was only 1 week out of 13, so I can still make up for it. I had half of a Stephano's pizza tonight and thats it for a long time. Im starting to see the beginning of good muscle definition, and I feel like in a few weeks I will start getting really good results. I think the hardest workout is chest/back, altho I am getting much better and can do more pullups than ever! I am proud that I've stuck it out these two weeks and can't wait to hit it super hard this week since next week is a week off. After that, the routines change and i'm excited. I think I'm gonna start adding a couple of running days into my routine. I feel as if i'm not getting enough cardio in, plus extra cardio esp HIIT will help get leaner quicker while building muscle. I will probly do running on my yoga and kenpo days. Physically, I feel amazing. Also, I uploaded the shoulder/arms video to my phone so I can take it to the gym and use dumbbells for it since I believe they will work me better than the bands. So bring on week 3, I'm going to crush it!!

Day 13 Kenpo/Ab ripperX

So Ab ripper is getting a little too easy for me... so I added 5 reps to everything, which is an extra 55 reps and it was great, my abs are pretty sore today. I also did Kenpo Karate for the 2nd time and it went much better than the 1st. I actually was halfway coordinated and didn't fall down. I feel like I could keep kicking stuff all day long...

Day 12- almost 2 weeks in!

wow legs.back day, ridiculous. Nothing made me want to do the next set of pullups like the minute and a half wall squat. I really pushed myself today, crushing my numbers from last week. it felt great! Im glad because I have a karate day tomorrow and a stretch day sunday and am looking forward to them. Im trying to tweak my diet more, the past few days I have eaten well but not as good as I can, that needs to be my main focus now that I've got the workouts down.

Days 9and 10

Yesterday was extreme. I did p90x , kinda dogged it near the end though, meaning skipped the bonus round. I went and played bballfor 1 1/2 hours and it was rough. The rest of the day was drinking for st pattys. 
Day 10
did 2nd round of arms today. i am really considering switching to dumbbells after  round 3. the bands work well but for better results i may switch

DAY8!

ok so yesterday started my 2nd week of p90x. it was chest/back and it worked me... I put up better numbers in some exercises and less in others which made me mad. It was much more extreme this week, but i felt great after! I headed to tally today and played an hour of basketball and it pushed me to the brink. I was already tired from the workout and bball took alot out of me.

Day 6!

So today was Kenpo dayKenpo was kind of hard, i found i am very uncoordinated. I just about fell on one of the jab/uppercut/kick combos. I'm gonna hit that shit strong next saturday. I was gonna put abs off until tomorrow but I was sitting at the computer and felt the absolute need to do it. So i totally killed ab ripper X. Its getting easier, I'm gonna start adding reps to the sets soon. tomorrow if off day. I need it because monday is gonna hurt. My diet was ok today. i ate well except for a fat homewrecker at moes.

day 5

ok so legs and back... raped me. an hour of lunges squats and pullups sucks.i made it through. the first day of a routine i always feel is slack because i'm learning the form, next week imma kill it!!

Day 4 for thursday

So today was a little slack. Partied and drank alot last night. no excuses though. Today was my yoga/abs day. Well I absolutely killed ab ripper. Its getting easier and i even through in some extras at the end! I didn't do yoga but am gonna move it to my rest day, sunday.

Day 3- shoulders/arms

So today was day 3 of p90x. I'm enjoying it so far. I did the shoulders/arms workout today and it wasnt too bad. i almost feel that my biceps don't get a good workout with the resistance bands, but I'll do it next week with the bands and make a decision to change to dumbbells for that workout. My diet is so far so good. I am allowing having 4-5 beers into my daily caloric intake. I am only drinking bud select or mich ultra. 100 cals a beer equals an extra 400 cals that I can fit into my diet. I figure if thats the only bad thing I take in and try to eat clean 85% of the time, I should be good. tomorrow is yoga/abs. I am kind of dreading yoga because it is an hour and a half long. I'm gonna stick it out though, it should be fun. I am still pretty sore from chest/back on tuesday and sore from plyo yesterday... Friday is legs back and it may just kill me!!

Day2

Today was day 2 of p90x and I'm loving it. Today I started with ab ripper ( and totally killed it without stopping, i might add) then proceded into Plyo X. Plyo was rough. I've done this plyo workout a couple times before, so i knew what to expect. Those damn mary catherine lunges and leap frog squats killed me! Its a burn, but a good burn. Plyo X, I hate it, but I love it....

P90x day 1

Well today I plan on starting p90x. I just recently downloaded the videos so I'll give it a try. I'm doing this while also doing my 52 DC, so I believe that will help to keep my diet in check. I will do my best to post after every workout with results!!!
