BTW any suggestions for tomorrow? It is supposed to be yoga but the yoga I didn't like and it was pretty long which is hard to work in between my nightshifts. Think I could swap out cardio x again? Add plyo? Or just suffer through the yoga and not sleep enough? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I am motivated!0

Shoulders, arms and ARX complete! I like this workout, its tough but a nice break from cardio. I still hate ARX though!! Lol. Not looking forward to yoga tomorrow, so long hope I can fit it in!! The next few days will be pretty busy for me. Well great job everyone!!!!

Just went out and bought some new fitness equipment this morning: heavier dumbbells, wrist/ankle weights and push-up bars. I can't wait to try out the wrist weights with Kenpo tomorrow, I'm hoping that will up the intensity quite a bit. I already tried out the push-up bars and they're amazing, I love how much lower you can go and how much better my wrists feel.
Oh and for people wondering about Yoga X, I think it's totally fine to occasionally swap out Yoga for something else. I personally like to use other Yoga DVDs so I don't miss out completely on the yoga. If you want to stick with Tony Horton, his One on One Fountain of Youth Yoga is about 50 minutes long and really great.0 -
Hi MFP Friends!
Week 2, Day 4, Shoulders and Arms Done, Ab ripper X pending (I will have to do this late tonight). I felt pretty good about this workout. It's one of my favorites. I need to invest in heavier weights and pay closer attention to my diet to see the results that I'm looking for.
Week 2 is almost over . YEAH!!
Enjoy this terrific Thursday. Make it a GREAT day!0 -
Arms & Shoulders / ARX done today!!
completely missed a workout yesterday, but I felt like I just needed a rest day. Have a good day everyone!!0 -

Woke up tired today and didn't sleep well. Did 35 minutes of Yoga X which was enough to have me shaking in the arms and legs and I really felt it in the arms and back (still sore from yesterdays ab ripper and chest/back). Next time I will aim for 45 minutes as a goal! I think I am just not quite strong enough yet. I will get there. I may need to start with a beginners yoga series to build up to this because the moves seem advanced to me! Best part....my two favorite workouts are coming up the next two days! YAY!0

Sooo today was supposed to be Yoga x. But instead I went to the gym for an hour after work and then came home and did cardio x instead. Part was due to time and part was due to my dislike of yoga x. I got a great workout in overall though, burning over 800 calories!! Looks like everyone else is doing great!! See you tomorrow!0

Cardio X complete!!!! Ready for rest week!!!!0

Week 5 Day 6: Kenpo X completed. The first week I hated this workout, struggled all the way through, second week I subbed it out for Insanity, third and fourth weeks I tried again and slowly got better, and now I LOVE KENPO! I honestly never thought I'd say that, but I think I've finally got the hang of it. It took me awhile to figure out the rhythm of everything, but I finally made it through the whole workout without hitting myself! I added 1kg wrist weights to both of my arms for the workout and that totally upped the intensity in an amazing way, especially the jumping jacks during the "break". I'm thinking of buying some heavier wrist weights or a second set of 1kg weights to add to my ankles for the kicks.
Tomorrow is Rest day so I'm gonna do X Stretch and probably go for a run or do some Bodyrock workout.
Hope everyone else is doing great!0 -
Plyo done today!! I'm kinda off schedule this week, as long as I get them all in that makes me happy!!
Everyone have a great weekend!!0 -
took my rest day today ....don't have time!!!0

It took a lot of praying and all the will power that I had to do today's workout. Week 2, Day 5, Shoulders, arms, and ab ripper X DONE! It's been an extremely tough week and I am so looking forward to the weekend. Tomorrow is Kenpo and I'll be ready to bring it!0

Woo hoo! Legs and Back/ Ab Ripper X done! That means tomorrow is my favorite! Kenpo X! And today I think I was better with the ab ripper! Not as many breaks and not as many modifications! Can't wait till my 30 day check in! Nice job everyone!0

I will be using P90X in conjunction with my running, cycling and I am thinking of getting TurboFire. Working up a sweat is awesome. I did legs and back last night.0

Glad to see that you are feeling better. Kudos for trying to workout even when you were sick but remember that sometimes we all just need to rest and get our strength back. Your health and wellbeing comes first.
Enjoy your workouts.0 -
I caught up today and squeezed in Legs/Back plus ARX tomorrow it's kenpo since I'm
on vacation and forgot to bring my chest and back video duhhhh0 -
Enjoyed my rest day! Back at it tomorrow, week three here I come!! I am really looking forward ro week three because I never made it this far before! Thank you everyone for keeping me motivated!!! Hope you all had a great weekend!! 0

Oh the joy of being done with Chest, Back & especially ab ripper X. Week 3, Day 1, complete! I felt good about today's workout. Pull ups, push ups and ab ripper X are all still challenging for me but I'm "doing my best and forgeting the rest." I felt stronger and more in control today. The best is still yet to come.
Have a SPECTACULAR Monday!0 -
Hi, all. I ended up not joining you on your fabulous P90X journey this month because my husband and I started trying to conceive and I was worried that it might be a little too intense to start at this time. But I am curious about how it is going for all of you so far. Are you a convert? How much time do you find yourself working out just with P90X per day? Do you feel it is more intense than running, for those of you who run? Good luck to all of you fine people working your tails off, hope you all get amazing results!0

Week 3!! Lets BRING IT!! :happy:0

I wouldn't say "convert" but it is not as bad as I was expecting.....LOL. I think the biggest thing I dislike it the time it takes for the workouts, esp in the morning- 1 hr 15 min. on average- getting your strength training plus Ab Ripper X. But, this is definately what I need to get my butt in the shape I want!!!!
Good luck to you and your baby making!!! I am sure we will be here afterwards to help support you!!0
