    Hello MJFSH,
    sucks to feel that way! Why do you think you feel that way? Could you try and mix up your exercise, maybe it just needs a little refresh?

    I haven't had much time to post with the grandkids and DIL here visiting and I haven't been to the gym yet this week. I'm determined to get in there tomorrow though.

    Yesterday:

    Cardio: A 3 mile walk in the morning and then a 3.1 mile run in the afternoon

    Today:

    Cardio: A 4 mile walk this morning

    My DIL is a walker so that's what I'm doing with her right now.

    Strength: Tomorrow for sure! And I can't wait!

    Assessment: Eating pretty well just a little out of the ordinary for us

    @MJFSH there's no timetable as to when you HAVE to change and even following the same routine isn't needed. Many times if I don't feel like doing cardio on a machine or even on my bike, I'll just jog in place or do plyometrics while watching TV. It's still movement and physical activity.

    Good Morning and Happy Friday fitfam!
    @ninerbuff i understand the need to change but when i committe myself to a program, i like to see it to the end. One more week left of P90X and I'll be done! :)

    Strength/ Cardio: Tapout XT2: Total Body
    this workout uses a mix of bands and balls to work total body.
    Remember the workouts rut i was complaining about? totally non existent today! There was no time for nagging and complaining. Had to hold on to every bit of energy to complete the workout. And the after the workouts endorphin rush was to die for! now that's what im talking about!
    loved it so much, I'm going for another workout tomorrow. :)

    @MJFSH, glad you enjoyed the workout more this morning. I agree with you about finishing what you've started even if you're not that thrilled with it at the moment. Sometimes it's just discipline that gets us through! I'll be looking for a new program soon myself!

    5X5 squats w/95 lbs
    leg press 2X10 w/310 lbs and 3X10 w/400
    3X10 each of cable tricep pulldown and extension w/30 lbs

    No disagreement there then. Yes if you're on a structured program, then by all means finish it till the end.
