Day 70 P90X Stretch/Rest Day
Nutrition 9/10
Today is my Stretch/Rest Day. I woke up being motivated today. I decided to do a 43 minute Cardio workout. I felt great. I am still going to do my Stretching later on today. I believe that stretching is very helpful in improving other workouts that you do. I did the X Stretch and I feel great but do not call me Gumby quite yet.0 -

Fire 55
I woke...unmotivated...but can't let that stop us can we?
Had some technical difficulties with my Body Bugg...
I planned and took to work a very healthy yummy selection...and it must have looked it too as someone snookered it.
Tomorrow is another day. I plan for Toning 30. My body bugg won't be fixed up by then and maybe I can actually have my lunch.0 -
05/13 - Insanity Day 1...
Must admit I am a bit intimidated by the task ahead. But I am committed to the next 60 days. I have small rewards for myself for each rest day for the entire 60 days. So I am ready.
Thanks for adding me to the group...and I look forward to hearing from you guys for this 60 day journey I am about to begin tonight.

Day 71 P90X Chest & Back and Ab Ripper X
Nutrition 8/10
I had a great workout burning 773 total calories in 68 minutes. Ab Ripper X seemed easy today for the first time. I feel great. I had a later then normal workout and I will sleep good tonight. It seems just like yesterday I was 29 pounds heavier and out of shape. What a difference 71 days has made. I feel great.0 -
May 14....I did Insanity Max Plyo Intervals today (week 7...not sure what day!). Power Jumps are killers for me!!! but I love it!0

Day 72 P90X Plyometrics
I was very tired before this workout. I also had a headache so I was not pumped up to push play. I did not hesitate and started right away. Today was not by best workout but I still managed to burn 696 calories in 58 minutes. I feel good now and my headache is gone. I know I will sleep well tonight.0 -

Awesome job. When I adjust my schedule I find it harder to work out at the end of a day. I have so much more energy in the morning. Excellent on completing day 10. Keep it up.0 -

Day 73 P90X
Shoulders/Arms and Ab Ripper X
I had an awesome workout today. I really felt the burn today. I burned 730 calories in 77 minutes.0 -
After a full week off I did CLX push 1 today. I love the convenience of the bands but I just don't think they are pushing me as much as a set of weights would.
Planning on picking up some running starting this week to help burn some calories. I don't think I'm burning enough with using the bands in CLX and loved how running "felt" like it slimmed me down.0 -

I've been taking a break after the 5 day inferno plus working out 8 days in a row. No Turbo, just walking. Will be starting the prep schedule soon.0 -

Great job. I have tried both weights and bands with P90X. The weights are a much better workout for me. I use the bands on a few exercises but only on 2 exercises. My brother recently became P90X certified to teach P90X at his gym. There were 2 exercises that are old school and not recommended to do with weights.
Bands are good but I believe weights to a better job of toning. Great job completing week 1.0 -

Good job completing your 5 day inferno and your workouts. Keep it up.0 -
My first Cardio Recovery. DAY 4 COMPLETE. I look forward to continuing to feel stronger each day. I feel super strong for sure. I know what I need to work on...but for once in my life I am not worried about getting there. I am taking it one day at a time and it feels so good to really not have my weight loss hanging over my head. I feel like I am doing it...and I know that even in just 4 days I feel so much better than last week.
Today my job had a farewell cake and ice cream gathering for a departing co-worker. I resisted the urge to eat both the cake and the ice cream. I have been battling this dairy issue for almost a year now and I have finally started realizing that giving up dairy has its perks...made it much easier to say no to the ice cream and the buttercream frosting!
Thanks for being here everyone. I find myself look forward to checking in throughout the day to see everyone's progress. Truly motivating to hear where I hope to be.

Great job on Day 4 complete. Dairy lately has made me feel bloated. I quit drinking milk and now the only dairy I get is yogurt and sometimes some string cheese. If I added milk to any of the above I would get bloated.
Keep up the great work and have a great one.0 -

Day 74 P90X Yoga X
Nutrition 6/10
Today was a very busy day. I had 3 spring school concerts to attend to at 3 different schools. It was hard to fit in my 92 minute workout but I did it. It felt good to stretch after having 3 intense workouts earlier in the week. I feel great. I slipped and ate some unhealthy food today but was in a hurry. It was not fast food but that I like to avoid now.0 -

I sure am glad its Friday. I had a great workout and now its time to unwind and relax. I burned 752 calories and am feeling good. I ate a little better today then yesterday but a co-worker brought breakfast from McDonalds and I had 2 sausage breakfast burritos. Tomorrow will be a new day to start eating healthier.0 -

Day 76 P90X Kenpo X
Nutrition 8/10
Kenpo is one of my favorite P90X workouts. It is a great cardio workout and really kills the calories. I burned 586 this morning and had fun doing it. I wish I could say this about every workout I do.0 -
Just finished my second week of Insanity and I am feeling so much stronger than this time last week. I can't imagine how good I will feel this time next week! Looking forward to it! Have a great rest of the weekend everyone.0

I never like to completely rest. I did the X Stretch then did some spinning for a few miles. I burned some calories but not a lot. I ate decent today and was under my calorie goal.0 -
