    Week 2 Day 7 for me. Stretch X tonight (luv the stretch DVD) and a jog.
    I rarely ever do nothing on a rest day. If nothing else I'll hit a jiu jitsu or muay thai class. I get bored and antsy without a daily physical outlet now.

    I miss doing the core workout. That was my favorite part of the lean routine. Looks like it's only used in the recovery week on the classic.
    I could never do the twist though. :-/

    That Dreya roll is killer! they make it look so easy! I can barely get to my fit let alone spin!
    Week 2 day 4 - Yoga. Ug. Made it through though. I actually found it slightly more difficult today then last week... weird.
    Legs and back tomorrow!!
    I've decided to switch from lean to classic. We'll see how it goes!

    Core Synergistics again tonight, I didn't get to it until after 9pm which is about 2 hrs later than I usually work out. I was tired and probably only gave it a 90% effort at best. I just wasn't feeling it tonight, had a hectic day at work and at home, one of those days I really could use a stiff drink (but I'm holding off on booze at least for 30 days, dangit!). I'm kind of bummed this workout is only used 4 times in 90 days? Really is that right? I might swap it out somewhere down the line, maybe for Yoga a couple times.

    Glad to see everyone is still kicking some *kitten*. Good job everyone!

    Screwed up and did core syn yesterday when I was supposed to do yoga......Oh, well! I did yoga today and it went well. I forget how much I like core syn, it is one of my top workouts.

    Those dreya rolls come with time..... Stick with it and once you get the form down they are not that bad. I think they are more form then strenght and just take a little time. I don't think I was able to do very many until my last recovery week in rd one.

    Nice to see everyone grinding it out and keeping in touch. NIce to to see how everyone is doing.

    Oh, my day 7 is a day off for me. Unless i am golfing, volleyball, hockey, broomball, softball or just playing around with the kids, it is a day off. I don't try to make a point to do anything special. I set it up so my day off falls on my golf league night. I work nights and it is just easier that way.

    Nice job all!

    Nearly half way through my first recovery week of classic, been working through the programme with my wife, really enjoying it so far.

    Anybody else made changes to the programme? I swapped all the yoga for core synergy, and will be swapping out all the cardio bar pylo from the second month on for intervals and total body from P90x plus.

    What supplements have people been using? I've been using power 90 whey protein, xtend, adam multi vitamins and recently started a course of malace fat burner.

    I messed up my week as well so I had to do some rearranging. Actually FORGOT that it was recovery week for the first couple days! I guess it just didn't seem like that much time had gone by yet!

    Yay!
    And I've decided I'm going to try my best to switch from classic to doubles. Let's see what happens!

    Yesterday I was able to fit in 50 min of YogaX which is the most I've done of the dvd! I'm pretty proud of myself actually for taking the initiative and working out at work even if I wasn't able to fit in the entire DVD. This afternoon I only had time to fit in 1/2 of the Legs/Back because of my plans tonight and my weekend off now turned into a working weekend :explode:

    Gonna bang out some Kenpo or Plyo tomorrow morning before work! I wonder if my neighbors below can hear me jumping around lol...I hope not, since I'm going to be jumping around at 630am on a Saturday! :laugh:

    Nutrition today is actually pretty good so far. I still have a lot of protein to take in and I'm trying to watch my sugar intake...I forget how much sugar fruit contains...only eating 1 serving a day is hard for me!

    day 3 of my recovery week (kempo) in the books! My hamstrings are a little tight after kempo and now I get to sit in a car all night at work. A little stretching will be a good thing tomorrow.
