January 21st P90X3 Workout
Cranked out Accelerator this morning and pushed myself to the limit. I even managed to do the last move, although I was unable to do it for more than 30 seconds. Tough move to do, and I kept scraping my knee on the floor. No one said carpet burn was a hazard of P90X3. I did Eccentric Upper yesterday and CVX/Ab Ripper on…

January 15th P90X3 Workout
Did the Isometrics last night which is a miniature Yoga-fest. I am not a fan of Yoga, but this workout seemed to go by fairly quickly. This morning I ran 3 miles and did Dynamics which is a great stretching workout. No aerobics. No weightlifting. Just stretching, which I badly need. If you are stiff or have very little…

January 11th P90X3 Workout
I had already decided to postpone yesterday's CVX until tomorrow and combine it with the Warrior. This way my legs would be fresh for this morning's 10-mile run. Headed out the door at 7:45am, 37'F and a 20mph headwind for the first three miles, which sucked. The only good news was I knew I would have a good tailwind later…

January 8th P90X3 Workout
Short and sweet. The roads along my normal running route are still packed with snow/ice, so I am postponing my run until tomorrow. Worst case scenario is I run on an indoor track or, *gasp*, a treadmill. Today I did the Challenge instead, with one minor modification. I did the first batch of pull ups and push ups…

January 6th P90X3 Workout
I woke up this morning to find the snow had finally stopped and I glanced at my driveway which took almost an hour to clear yesterday, wondering if I should get some eggs or not from the store. That was when the urge to throat punch someone hit me. Now, I am not a violent person by nature, and it is another thing to…

January 5th P90X3 Workout
I hope everyone is surviving the second coming of the Ice Age, or as the climate change alarmists like to call it, simply a minor hiccup in the data that proves the world will burn up in 2100. Yesterday was supposed to be The Warrior and today was supposed to be a 10-mile run. I "could" have swapped the two out so I could…

January 3rd P90X3 Workout
I brought my cold weather gear to work and ran five miles on the outdoor track (21'F). Felt great for the first four miles, then the wind picked up and wouldn't you know I'd be running INTO the wind for that last mile? Came home and fixed some homemade chili I had waiting for me in the fridge. Oh my goodness, chili never…

January 1st P90X3 Workout
First workout of 2014. Week 2 The Challenge combined with P90X's Ab Ripper. Got my heart rate up to 141bpm and burned 580 calories total. This time I knew ahead of time how to choose my pushup/pullup numbers without killing myself, so I chose to do 20/6. This was manageable up until the end when I had to do pullup…
