    My biceps are hurtin' today after yesterday's "Back & Biceps" workout. Phase 2 is making me feel like the beginning of Phase 1 - pain, but a good pain. Yesterday's AB Ripper X workout never felt so easy. It took me the entire Phase 1 to get to a point where I could keep up with all those exercises with good form.

    Why does legs day hurt so much?! Two days later and I'm still feeling the pain. But I love it!

    Looking forward to starting week 2 of phase 2 tomorrow.

    Day 62/90 - kenpo x done! It's hard to believe I'm over 2/3 of the way through. To be honest, when I started I wasn't sure I'd make it all the way through, and now I'm not sure what I'm going to do when it's over. I'm thinking of doing Insanity next, but am open to suggestions.

    Day 57 Back and chest + Ab Ripper complete. Set new highs in reps in all catagories !!
    Nate: I think you have 2 ask yourself what you goal is for your next Workout you tackle after
    P90x. Weight loss....Insanity is good for that. I've heard people say it is tough on the Knees...
    but no knee issues...you should be fine.
    My Doctor and Chiro both are all about Core Strength as you get older...Im 47. So I did
    P90x2 last year. Only negative was buying equipment...balance ball, med balls, and
    foam roller. I can honeslty say p90x 2 is Awesome to build core strength. Phase 3...the
    performance part is really challenging.

    Day 65/90 - Plyo x done!

    I've thought about both Insanity and P90X2. The reason I'm leaning towards Insanity is just for a bit of variety. Also, despite massive weight loss over the past six months, I'm still a tad bit overweight, so Insanity doesn't sound like a bad option. After that, I definitely want to have a go a P90X2. I've looked at the info on BeachBody and would really like to give it a try.

    Currently in my recovery week for Phase 2. Hard to believe I am past the halfway point! I like the changes I am seeing in my body. Although not really bulking up much but I am seeing more definition. Some of my t-shirts are fitting tighter across my lats - I guess the pullups are working! At the beginning I couldn't do more than a couple pullups with proper form but now I can crank out 10 when I'm fresh. During the workouts I still use a chair a lot because I can't do very many when I'm getting tired. But it's forward progress for sure!

    I did Core Synergistics yesterday - I really love that workout. I use a Bosu ball for several of the exercises which adds some challenge. I wanted to do some extra stuff (abs) but towards the end I heard about the bombings and couldn't go on. Today is my running day and tomorrow I think I'll give Cardio X a try.
