P90X Day 12 Legs&Back

So about 3:30am last night I'm dreaming I'm at sea and the boat I'm in is sinking. Then I wake up to find that my son had gotten into bed with my wife and I and had brought his water cup - which had leaked all over my side of the bed and puddled around me.
That was fun.

Anyway, rocked AbripperX and Legs and Back, the morning was shot so I only got Abripper done then, Legs and Back had to wait until lunchtime, but that was okay. Didn't hold back and performed all the reps for all the exercises as well as adding 20 lb weights to the exercises that used them. Cranked out a lot more pullups today as well. Things seem to be WORKING this round.

Today is Halloween, deliver me from candy. Ate like crap.

Sleep today? no idea.

P90X Day 11 YogaX

Oh man, another screwed up night. Ended up spending about 5 hours in a kid's bed after finding it impossible to ignore the snorts/wheezes/coughs and hacks emanating from the TB ward of a bed that I was occupying at the time.
I feel like I've been beaten with a 'stupid bat'. Usually I'd say this is a job for coffee, but I don't drink that any more. Green tea here we go.

YogaX today, I don't like it but I'll do it.

9pm
Got YogaX done today, getting better at it. Ate okay I guess, upper body is a little sore but not bad.

Sleep total 6:23

P90X day 10 Arms&Shoulders Round 2

5:45 am
I'm up. So is sick son. Guess we'll see how the morning goes.

4:15pm
Well the morning didn't go to well, but I got AbripperX done (25 to go!) and Shoulders&Arms got the dumbells upped by 5 lbs. Good workout.

Haven't felt that great today, wondering if I'm picking up what son has. Didn't help that work started early and it was 11 when I realized I had yet to fix breakfast.

Green smoothie w/ 2 scoops of Whey and popcorn for lunch, Lasagna for dinner, not great on the nutrition front today.

Sleep total: 6:23 (estimating the core since it was up and down all night)

P90X Day 9 Plyo round 2

5:15am
I'm up.

8:00am
Plyo went well today and I'm not feeling any soreness in the upperbody (yet?) from yesterday's chest&back. I won't complain - got more than I bargained for with the salsa yesterday anyway.

Breakfast:
8oz 1% milk, 1 scoop Whey protein, 1 banana, 3/4 oz walnuts
8oz lsV8, 12oz green tea
Snack:
Popcorn
Lunch:
Green smoothie
Snack:
Yogurt
Dinner
Chicken wrap from Chic-fil-a and side salad

9pm
Feeling pretty good, tired and hope everybody sleeps tonight - interruptions are killing me.

Sleep total: 5:26 (5 hour core, 26 min nap)

P90X Day 8

5:10am
I'm up.

9:55am
Busy morning today. The boy has a fever so he'll be staying home today. Hate it when the kids are sick.
Knocked out Abripper and Chest and Back this morning. Abripper was a little more of a struggle today but I did all of it. Chest and Back was a good workout, showed good gains in 90% of it.

Breakfast:
8oz 1%milk, 1 scoop whey, 1 banana, 1/2oz walnuts <--This makes a great shake, try it!
4.5oz of apple, 12oz tea (hot), 8oz LSV8 (put too much hot sauce in today, but still good)

7:52pm
Lunch/dinner/snacks, pretty much standard fare, check the dietpower outputs below if you're really interested. Did upgrade the 'bad end salsa' with a 1/4 pound of habaneros. Pretty sure that's going to end up being 'DEAD END salsa'. After a few bites I could feel the insides of my ears sweating. I'm afraid this one may leave a vicious exit wound.

Dang, I just realized I missed my nap.
Sleep total 7 hours.

Dropped the tree in the backyard and carted it out. Missed my snack, built a workbench in the garage and completely rearranged it into a more usable space. Hung some more shelving in the laundry room. Missed my morn and evening snack as well as my noon nap.

Lunch was a six inch chicken breast sammich from Subway. Dinner was 2 pieces of Papa John's pizza. Eating like crap this weekend, have to do better tomorrow.

I am dog tired but the kids are ready for bed, I'm showered and ready for bed and looking forward to sleeping hard and a rest day tomorrow. I do plan to do stretchX, I think that makes me feel a lot better than simply doing nothing.
