Week 2: Shoulders & Arms + Ab ripper x

Kill me now! I’m going to be so sore. I really focused this workout, I used appropriate weight…starting heavier and getting a lighter weight to finish the set. I kept the reps around 13-16 as well. I also filled out my sheet for the workout that has all the reps and weights used. When I [...]

Just another day of muscle soreness!

I think I am back on track and have been on a good diet for two entire days now…sarcasm intended. Sunday I completed my regular P90X workout (chest and back). I am happy that I am getting better with push-ups, but I’m not sure that I’ll ever have a proper pull-up bar…so who knows? Last night I did [...]

First week complete

I am disappointed in myself this week. I ended up missing Friday’s Kenpo, so I did it on Saturday instead. Today I started my second week of P90X and completed the Chest and Back routine. My diet this week was horrendous, I mean like really bad….really really bad. My pictures after week 1 – no [...]

Day 5 – Legs and Back + Ab Ripper X

Yesterday I completed day 5, legs and back. I was happy with this workout, it was tough. Working my legs without weight is different for me, I really liked all of the different types of lunges and felt that not only did I get an awesome leg and glutes workout, but that the pace of [...]

Day 4 – Yoga X

Not feeling the yoga. 1 hour and 38 minutes? I did like 45 minutes and I am done. I’ll have to work my way up, yoga is boring….very boring. This yoga x just doesn’t do it for me, it was not relaxing like other yoga tapes I’ve done. Hopefully it will be a better experience [...]

Day 3 – Chest, Shoulders, Abs

I am so sore from day 1 and day 2 that just doing the stretching for this workout hurt! My hip flexors are so sore and my lower back is tight, it is painful. I guess a good pain, but still pain. I made it through Day 3 – tonight was Arms and Shoulders + [...]

Day 2 – Plyometrics

58 minutes – done! This is a great workout…tough workout, my buns will be sore tomorrow for sure. For my first time I was quite proud of myself and while I kept up with the dvd, I think next time I’ll need to step it up a notch because my heart rate was never really [...]

Day 1 Images – cover your eyes!

The only thing I like about these before pictures are that I am so pale I am bound to never get skin cancer and my breasts look lovely. Everything else, especially the ginormous legs and love handles can go…..hopefully quickly.

Premature start…common problem I hear… :)

I was supposed to start P90X tomorrow, but I jumped the gun and started today. Week 1, Day 1 – Chest + Back + Ab Ripper It was difficult, lots of push-ups, lots and lots of them. I don’t have a pull-up bar either, so I guess my first workout would be considered somewhat incomplete….woopsy. [...]

On my way!

On Monday I am starting Beachbody P90X. I will post before images to help measure my progress in the next couple days. I will also try to take progress pictures at least once a month. Hopefully using this blog to document the 90 days will keep me on track.
