P90X+ Day 3 Kenpo Cardio+

6:05am
I'm up!

10pm
Knocked out Kenpo Cardio+ today, I'm getting better with not as much flailing around this time. Didn't get a nap today, and I've been feeling a little out of it. Hope it's just me adjusting to getting up on time and the weather and not me getting sick.

P90X+ Day 2, IntervalX+, Run, YogaX

Hey 6:06am and I'm up! Almost messed it up and went back to sleep, but knew you were waiting. Thanks!

Crappy day today. Did get IntervalX+ knocked out in the morning and a fair amount of YogaX at lunch. Pushing the run off until tomorrow, still need to adjust this schedule.

10:15pm
Time for some evening yoga (Crunch's Candlelight session w/ Sara Ivanhoe) then to bed.

Just Kidding, this is day 1 of P90X+

Last week was a trial run, did 90% of what I was supposed to but found some issues with the route that conflicted with some of the other training I want to do. So I reworked it and will start today.
I need to start the mornings a little better. I'm up an hour earlier than normal but I'm also up an hour later than I wanted to be. Not sure why I'm spending so much time sleeping. Oh well, let's workout.

Knocked out Total Body+ and AbsCore. Did a bunch of extra pull ups. I really want to be able to crank out a hundred good pull ups by the end of the year.

As an attempt to reinforce my discipline I'm going to get back to posting as soon as I get up in the morning. Tomorrow's target is 6am - not sure why I'm finding this to be so difficult. Lazy I guess.

Oh, forgot to mention a good 3 mile neighborhood run last Sunday. The marathon training is picking up slowly but steadily.

Now it's time for a little yoga then bed.

P90X+ Day 1. Holy cow, it's TOTAL BODY+

Well, I got my butt handed to me this morning. Came in all smug, fired up, and thinking this'd be a cake walk after finishing P90. Yeah, not so much.

I had to hit pause before the WARMUP was finished! What's up with that?

Was a great workout, one I'm sure I'll be feeling tomorrow too. The new pullup rack worked well although I see a few tweaks I need to make for a little better stability. The pace is really fast in this workout and I got to swinging on it more than I liked.

P90X Day 91 END OF P90X!

Well today finishes this round of P90X. I took it as a rest day and just did a neighborhood run. All in all I'm pleased with the results, I'm 11 pounds lighter than I was this time last year and I didn't do the historical blow up over the holidays. This time of year is the hardest by far for me and I'm proud things went as well as they did.
I've lost about 6 pounds of overall weight and tomorrow I'll take the measurements to see how my body changed. I feel great and think I look pretty good for a guy about to be 39. Still want better definition though.

I think tomorrow will start a round of the P90X+ lean program. That should tie in well with the triathlon training and marathon program. Considering throwing in a round or two of 10 minute trainers during the day to keep the metabolism high and ending the day with some yoga. We'll have to see how all that works out.

Stay tuned dear reader, things are about to get a little more interesting!
