Morning,
Well! Imagine my surprise when I realized that I did the wrong workout yesterday. I was supposed to start repeating the 7 day program; instead, I did the Core Synergistics workout. That meant I missed Chest/Back.
Wah! But never one to accept reality, I chose to do Chest/Back this morning at […]

Morning!
So! Are you interested in how P90x Plus differs from P90x?
Here’s what I’ve found out so far:
…Now granted, I haven’t actually gotten my shipment of P90X+ in yet, so I will just explain what I know. I have done a bit of studying them so I’m familiar with them for the most part. […]

Morning!
At 2:00am today I pressed PLAY yet again, and enjoyed the Core Synergistics workout.
Couple of things about this particular DVD! One, because my right thigh is weak again, I chose to substitute some exercises for those I could not do (in this case, side kicks/balances which actually I needed to practice anywhos).
I loved […]

Morning,
Well, yet again, I got up at 1am and couldn’t fall asleep…so by 1:45am I decided to do my P90x workout for the day, stretching.
Day 7 is the rest day….which for me is quite good, given the fact I pulled my leg muscle yesterday. The stretches were quite useful and rather […]

Morning,
One of the benefits of working from home is that you can modify your schedule for whatever needs you might have!
At 1:30am this morning, I realized I wasn’t falling back asleep….so I decided to get up and tackle Week 1, Day 6 of P90x - Kenpo Karate.
Now, I do karate 3-4 days a week, […]

Morning!
Today I got up at 3am and pushed PLAY by 3:30am. Today was Back/Legs and my oh my, did I learn lots about myself.
First off, my right leg is still quite weak from the surgery recovery. Thus, squats done on that leg go down, oh, 3 inches if I’m lucky? I […]

Morning,
Well! I just finished the 1.5 hours’ worth of P90x Yoga X, and all I can say is,
My gosh, I’m so non-flexible, it’s ridiculous. Me! The all-powerful warrior mom…I might destroy everyone in my class with weight lifting/strength training, but here….wow!
This lack of flexibility is even more astonishing for me as […]

Morning!
Well, at 4am I made certain to be up, ready, and pushed PLAY again!
Now, today’s workout was shoulders/arms and we used dumbbells. Thing is, when I’m doing a static bicep curl, I can curl 35 pounds in 3 sets of 8 reps. But when you’re doing things from different positions, swinging your […]

Morning,
As you know if you’ve been reading my blog, I’m currently challenging myself with P90x, an extreme home-fitness routine. It’s great! It’s exciting! And it cajoles your muscles to failure, which is why taking care of yourself afterwards is of such high priority.
After every workout I do, I now will take […]

Morning!
Well, at 4am, I got up to try the second day of P90x, Plyometrics. For me, was that ever an eyeopener!
Couple of things you should know about. One, I’ve never done any physical activity that requires an intense amount of jumping. And two, there are some things my legs simply aren’t […]
