P90X Phase Three - Day Sixty Four

It is back to Chest and Back. Man was I ever bagged. I barely made it through it. I managed to increase my push ups, and a little improve, and I mean little on the pull ups. I am not very good at the pull up part, but I keep on trying. Maybe one day I will be good at them.

Afterwards I gave Ab ripper X a shot, but only lasted half way, and then I completely bonked. I hope to do better on it on Wednesday.

P90X Phase Two - Day Fifty Two

This was a case of too much, too quickly. I hammered the first half of the exercises, and paid for it in the second half. By the time I got to the end, I could barely do the exercises, especially the max rep pull ups. I could only do half of what I normally do. Even though I died at the end, I still think it is better to go all out and die, versus not going hard, just to make the rep count at the end.


This turned out to be my best Ab Ripper X workout yet. I am still struggling with the heels to the sky exercise. With my hamstrings being as tight as they are, I can't get my legs straight, so I have to do the exercise with them bent.

Why is P90X so effective?




The secret behind the P90X system is an advanced training technique called "Muscle Confusion," which accelerates the results process by constantly introducing new moves and routines so your body never plateaus, and you never get bored! Whether you want to get lean, bulk up, or just plain get ripped, there's an endless variety of ways to mix and match the routines to keep you motivated the full 90 days and beyond!
How does P90X work?

Two words: Muscle Confusion. By providing an extensive variety of different moves that take time to master, P90X is continually challenging the body's muscles into new growth. The more you confuse the muscle, the harder your body has to work to keep up; the more variety you put into your workout, the better and faster your results will be.

The flaw with many fitness products is that they all lead to a "plateau" where the body becomes accustomed to the routines, resulting in diminished effectiveness. P90X avoids this plateau effect by switching things up to keep the body guessing for the entire 90 days. Which means IT NEVER GETS EASY. By breaking old routines and opening new doors, secondary and tertiary muscles are constantly being activated and developed.

P90X Phase Two - Day Fifty

Back to Chest, Shoulders and Triceps. Today's workout was ok, not too hard. and not too easy. I push it where I could and maintained last weeks effort when I could not.The one arm push ups are still hard being in the middle of the workout. I am still doing them on my knees, but I am going fairly low to the ground.



After Chest, Shoulders and Triceps it was straight into Ab Ripper X. It was my best performance yet doing it. There was only two exercises out of eleven that I could not keep up, but I would still finish it, just not at the speed of the group.

P90X Phase Two - Day Forty Four

Missed yesterdays workout, so I did it today. It was Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps. I managed to make some minor improvements from the last time. On some of the exercises, I could push it pasty where I was before, but on some I could just do what I had done last time.

Then it was straight into Ab Ripper X. It is still hard on my lower back but I push it where I can, and ease off where I can't. Eventually I will be able to go the full distance with this workout, it is just going to take time.

P90X Phase Two - Day Thirty Eight

This mornings workout was Back & Biceps. This was another of the workout that does not have repeats in it. So it was hard to determine the amount of weights I should use for each exercise. So I erred on the side of caution and backed it down a bit. Starting with lighter weights until I could figure the exercise out.

I marked down in my log book if the weight was easy, medium, or hard. So the next time, I can "bring it". This week repeats for the next three weeks, so I will be doing this each week. Trying to best the previous weeks high score, so to speak.

I must admit, this program even though it is tough,(or as tough as you want to make it) is a lot of fun.

P90X Phase One - Day Twenty Four

Today was my fourth round of shoulders and Arms, because I am re-doing week three over again.
Even with my cold, I managed to keep the same intensity was the last time I did this workout. The only exercise I did not match was the second round of Tricep Extensions. I had to stop two reps short because I was going to drop the weight on my head.

Since I have started P90X, my chair dips have gone from 20 reps to 40 reps, with my butt just short of touching the floor. Those last 5 reps are a killer. I am also up to 20 Side Tri-Rises, again the last three or so reps are difficult, to say the least.

Even though I am struggling with the weights I am using, I need to start looking for heavier ones. So I can decrease the number of reps I am doing. Less reps with heavier weights is where I am heading towards.
