Children, nunchaku and taking a break

Morning!
Well, it’s a delightful Sunday afternoon.

I had planned on spending time hacking up my forum software, when one of my kids came to me and said, Mom! Let’s go practice our nunchaku katas outside!
Now, you have to understand - the last time I did nunchaku was about, oh, hmmm, 3 months […]

P90x Review - Xstretch, Week 5, Day 7 - Total Days - 35

Okay, so I can’t count.

Yesterday was day 35 and I completed 5 weeks of P90x, yay!
I’ve dropped another 1/2 pound and energy wise, seem to be doing much better than when I started. Tomorrow is Back/Biceps; I remember from this week, it was utterly killer so I’m interested to see […]

Comparing P90x to Cathe’s STS

Hi everyone,
Here’s an interesting thread I just came across - it compares P90x to Cathe’s STS system.
…Do you think STS is Cathe’s version of P90X?
Of course the programs are very different, but I do see a couple of similarities: heavy weight work, each takes about three months to complete, etc.
I’m not implying that Cathe […]

I missed it soooo much! Karate sparring with gear

A quick post before I collapse in a heap

along with, hmmm, lessee…..8 hours of programming, 1 hour of P90x legs/back, and a 2.4 mile circle walk, I also did an hour of adult self-defense. And we sparred with gear!
Omigosh, I never realized how much I have missed sparring with gear. True, I […]

P90x Fitness Review - Legs Back, Week 5, Day 5 - Total Days - 33

Howdy all!
Well! Yesterday, I did doubles with my P90x

I had missed Wednesday’s workout (Back and Biceps) so I did that as well as Yoga. But because I did Back yesterday as well, I opted to change today’s workout to solely Legs and Abs.
It went rather well, I must say. There’s […]

P90x Fitness Review - Darth Yoga, Week 5, Day 4 - Total Days - 32

Morning!
Darth Yoga was actually for the first time in human memory….really enjoyable.

Why? Well, for beginners, I had spent about, oh, 8 hours straight sitting at my computer, programming my little heart out. I slowly but surely descended into the land of Can’tThinkStraightUnlessFingersWereGluedToKeyboard…. and that got tired real quick.
I had two choices yesterday […]

P90x Fitness Review - Back Biceps, Week 5, Day 3 - Total Days - 31

Morning!
Well, back and biceps were quite enjoyable, I must say.

I’m currently in Phase 2, and the DVDs for this particular phase seem to be a weeee bit more advanced than the first phase.
Back/Biceps is classic upper body hardcore curls and pullups. In a nutshell, that’s the DVD! However, Tony really gets going […]
