Legs & Back; Abs
0I did the last half of the Legs & Back workout as well as abs today. I really hate doing lunges so I tried to make them fun today, especially during the 3-way lunge. I was doing crazy Kung Fu hands and weird noises which made the exercise pass faster. Sneaky lunges are always a challenge for me. I don’t have a problem with staying on my toes the whole time, my problem is balancing while I lunge. They look so steady doing them and I feel like I can’t get down too low or I’ll fall to the side. Ab workout was good. I also increased the weight I use for the mason twists, mainly because it was the closest free weight to me on the floor.
Yoga X
1Good yoga workout this morning. I did pretty well today with the balance postures. One thing I’ve noticed is during Tree when Tony says that he fell out that always seems to mess with me. I look the other way so I don’t fall as well. I don’t mind his talking throughout the workout because at this point I find myself not watching it but just listening for the cues. It would be great though if he would shut up during the balance postures because I think I could hold them better without his yapping! 🙂
Shoulders & Arms
0It’s only been a few days but it feels like forever since my last workout. I had a good Shoulders and Arms workout today. I just did one set but worked hard to give it 110% during it. Actually I am finding I work even harder on each exercise when I know I only have one set of it to do. Since each muscle groups gets about 4 different exercises I don’t feel like I’m losing much here.
Abs and Guitar?
0Since I am not really doing a true second round of P90X, I think I’m going to stop counting the days like I am. I successfully completed round 1 without missing or modifying the workout schedule but due to schedule issues and other things going on, I don’t have the same time to commit right now. I plan on getting at least 5 workouts in per week but it may vary and I will mix them up a bit.
That being said, I did my ab workout this morning and was hoping to do Shoulders & Arms when I got home from work. However, I had to work a little later than normal and when I got home I was starving. After eating dinner, I wasn’t in the mood to workout and instead spent over an hour practicing guitar which I just started doing a few weeks ago. So between work, exercise, my new guitar hobby, coaching soccer soon and other springtime activities, I’ll need to find a balance between them all. I plan to get another full round of P90X in but that probably won’t be until the fall. Until then, I’ll be mixing and matching workouts which I’m sure will give plenty of muscle confusion, as well as confusion in general! 🙂
