Mark your calendar...June 6th starts another round of P90X C

Aside from my bad eating this weekend I've been slacking on the work outs...didn't get one in yesterday. I tweaked my shoulder doing shoulder biceps Saturday...but it feels better today. Today I'm doing cardio x. I was going to be almost caught up to start week 7 on Monday. I need to let that go and just get each days work out done. Next weekend my husband and daughter will be gone, so I can do a p90x marathon and double it up then and get completely back on track.

Rest days suck! =( Just finished stretch...but wanna do Kenpo again!!! LOL LOVE it!! On day 40?? of lean.
Stepped on the scale again today....still nothing...still where I started. Will be taking measurements again and will post them later. For now have to go for a walk or something...just dont wanna sit still!

Hi all. My new job is killer, as I expected it to be. I am not going to give up, but I am going to have to modify. I can workout on my typical 12 hour days, but not when I've already worked 15+ hours (like yesterday). So, I'm going to be taking this round at my own pace, it seems. Still... I will do my best and forget the rest (it's a good mantra at my new job too, lol).

Tonight it's time to suit up for plyo (Day 16). Then straight to bed to get up and at it all over again tomorrow. Keep up the good work, all. You're the motivation I have to push play tonight. :yawn: Later!

Great Plyo Sunday. Went over just a tad on calories ( could have had beer or ice cream, i had BOTH!)

Good back and biceps. Probably easiest workout so far to me. Don't get me wrong, I was cooked on pull ups at the end. (Max rep pull ups =3 unassisted, 5 with chair) but i undershot strip sets, making it too easy at the end. Still, good burn, and put together with my 80 minute run/walk with my wife and pushing our kid, got a nice calorie burn out of the day.

Hamburger you are mine come dinner time.
Back to yoga tomorrow. I have the recommended foot spray.

You must have some guns, dude...my arms are toast after this workout...with me still shedding fat, I am not gaining tons of muscle (hard to gain muscle when eating at a deficit)...curious...what are your strip set weights? For me, I go 25s, 20s, 15s, and end with 12s...I hope to be at 35, 30, 25, 20 by the end of the round...

strip set = 30, 20, 15, 10...the 30s were tough, the 10s were not. When I did this workout before (2+years ago) that was rough.) FWIW I was sore in the back and bis all day.

And I'm beginning to like my "guns" as well- getting nice and bulbous.

I decided to skip forward a few work outs and essentially get back on track, well I am a day behind now, but thats cool. I did the CST tonight. I LOVE that work out. An NSV for me: I could hold my hands above my head afterwards and my arms didn't shake like they did the previous two weeks. Yeay! Also I got in some push ups in the regular position and then went deeper with knees on the floor after that.

I didn't anywhere near my 1900 cals today...I am not all that hungry. I figure its cool considering the fact that I basically ate what I wanted when I wanted, finishing it off with three widmer hefeweisens yesterday after all the yard work we did. One day of low cals after three of high should be just fine

Well, today was a travel day today for me and once I got settled into the hotel, I REALLY wasn't feeling like doing Yoga tonight...I decided to sub out Yoga-X for Kenpo-X and will do Yoga-X on Thursday instead of the scheduled Kenpo-X...no harm, no foul...as long as you don't have strength back to back it should all be good...

I decided to experiment with things and see how my fitness level is with Kenpo-X without any hand weights or ankle weights of any kind...the workout was definitely too easy without resistance and I burned 90 less calories...I was prepared diary-wise for a smaller Yoga burn anyway so it was a nice time to experiment with where I was to where I am now...I will definitely be doing Kenpo-X from now on with ankle and hand weights to give the workout that extra "OOMPH" to bump the burn to the 700 level.

I must be getting in shape...

I need to confess my sins here a little bit too...my biceps are DYING from Back and Biceps yesterday and I don't think I could throw weighted punches tonight...LOL!

Great stuff. As fit as I think I'm becomming, I couldnt imagine kenpo WITH weights, so truly impressive Bob. Get after that legs and back today, way deep in those sneaky lunges.

Sounds like maybe you can skip rest day this week to get back on track? Sounds like you had a great weekend(other than the yard work).

UGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Sorry guys, but I need to vent in here.

So I went to my p90x studio to do legs and back. I dont need to do all the workouts in my studio, but I DO need to do my pull up videos out there. So little hockeyman (hockeyboy? 2.5 yrs.) usually tools around with his toys and whatnot while I get ripped. I was soo pumped to workout after noticing some gains yesterday.

So,Today the neighbor kid is out playing in his yard with no pants on. They are potty training him, I guess that'sa normal way to do it? Seems classless to me, but what the hell do I know, Im still cleaning diapers. Anyway, I dont let my boy go over and play when he's sans pants. Dont judge me, we all have parenting quirks. Well my kid doesn't care if he has pants on or not, that's his buddy and he wants to p-lay. My kid breaks down to the point I have to stop right after one-leg wall sits. I'm mad and all pumped on adreniline, so Im stomping and ranting inside, but trying to keep my cool on the outside. Totally ruined my legs and back...
but...
I had an idea. So after settling my boy down in his room, I put him in the JS(jogging stroller) and took off on my planned run for later. I figured if he wasnt going to co-operate here, I'll get outta here. We took our jog to the school (2.17 mi.) and finished legs and back+ab ripper(without Tony, Sophia, Drea and the Belgian guy) at the park. I didn't have my weights, but had to do unassisted monkey bar pull ups for all reps. I still said "let's climb our legs" in Tony fashion at the appropriate time.Then had the 2 mile walk home.

Probably not quite as good as if I had done the whole video the right way, but I overcame.
Stupid pantsless neighbor kid.

Also, Reepobob is nuts. Enjoy big fella
