    Did Fountain of Youth Yoga and a 300 rep Bodyrock workout before bed. I'm actually still quite sore from Back&Biceps two days ago, so those pull ups in Legs&Back should be interesting tonight. I'm thinking of upping my weights for some of the moves tonight, specifically the iso toe roll lunge thing. Slightly nervous.

    I'm actually really excited for Kenpo X tomorrow. I bought a second set of wrist weights so now I have 1 kg weights for each ankle and 1.1 kg weights for each wrist, so I'm really gonna bring it then.

    On another note, totally ahead of myself, but is anyone thinking of P90x2?

    Hope you all are having a wonderful week and KEEP BRINGING IT!

    Yesterday was my rest day. Week 4, Day 5, Yoga X done.
    I've found that I get the most out of this workout when I mentally prepare myself to do it. The night before I remind myself that I have to devote an hour and a half to yoga. I really try to do it on a day when I do not have any competing interests. This allows me to stay focused and get the most out of my time. I really enjoyed yoga today and felt like it was benefitial. I'll do core syn. tomorrow to finish out my week.

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Feeling better yesterday and today. I am thinking it may be from our weekend getaway and not eating so well, I have found that it really takes a toll on how I feel!!! For several days!!!

    Kempo X done, I burned 437 calories!!! Thats the most I've burned so far! I usually have a lower cal burn bc I am a small person, so I am happy!!:happy:

    Yoga tomorrow....... I struggle w/ that one, I am probably going to use "Fountain of Youth" since it is shorter.

    Week 5 starting Monday!!!

    You girls are really going AWESOME!!!

    True story. I was getting ready to go to bed a 9 p.m. knowing that I have a very early morning tomorrow. I decided to check in on everyone on MFP but was planning on declaring today my rest day because I felt like it was to late to do anything. I read ralison's comment and pressed play.

    Week 4, Day 4, X Strech - Complete.

    Thanks ralison.

    That's what we're here for-to help each other continue to push play. Everyone has been doing so well.
    I'm glad I could be here to help everyone keep going. P90x is a great workout program. Though I'm not very successful at keeping the schedule I keep to it as much as I can. It definitely has been the number one factor in the 7 pounds I've dropped since the beginning of July.

    Week 7 Day 5: Legs & Back. Done. Almost into my second recovery week.

    Week 7 Day 6: I just killed Kenpo X. Wow, I used 1.1kg weights on both wrists and 1 kg weights on both ankles and it totally stepped up the workout. I almost thought I couldn't make it through. Sadly, I couldn't figure out a way to wear my HRM (it's a chest strap and a watch and there's no way the watch would fit underneath the wrist weights) so I have no idea how many calories I burned.

    Hope everyone is doing great! Keep up the fabulous work!

    So I got a little frisky today and started week 5 (Chest/Shoulders/Triceps/ ARX) instead of taking a rest day. I had 2 rest days last week(due to not feeling so great) so I figured I really didn't need one!

I am going to start P90x on August 1st and I need some support and motivation from ladies who want to push themselves as well!!! This isn't exactly my favorite program, as a matter of fact....I HATE IT....LOL but I want some killer results and I know this is the only way I am gonna get it............so.............BRING IT!!!

    Week 8 Day 1: Yoga. First day into my second recovery week and feeling pretty good. Today's my birthday so I had a bit of an indulgent day with some cupcakes, but I did 48 minutes of Yoga and went for a jog earlier so I don't feel the least bit bad. :)

    I'm going on a business trip to China next Tuesday and I know it'll be difficult to keep up with these workouts time and equipment-wise, so I might just sub in some other workouts, basically whatever I can do in the hotel gyms while I"m away and get back on track when I get home. I think that'll be fine. I hope.
