P90X - ROUND 10 - WEEK 12 - Week of 07/14/2014

MONDAY - JULY 14, 2014 - Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps

Had a bit of a queasy stomach going in, then the power went off near the end of the warm-up. It came back on almost immediately, but I had to re-set everything. I finally got the workout in. It wasn't great, but was above average. Got in 10 Airborne Pushups.

Time: 55 minutes; Calories Burned: 583; Avg Heart Rate: 125; Max Heart Rate: 204.


TUESDAY - JULY 15, 2014 - Plyometrics

I felt pretty good before starting. For some reason my legs felt like lead during the second set of Circle Runs, but other than that, everything went well. Nothing exceptional, but again, above average.

Time: 58 minutes; Calories Burned: 621; Avg Heart Rate: 125; Max Heart Rate: 151.


WEDNESDAY - JULY 16, 2014 - Back and Biceps

After I got home I was relaxing a bit, checking  some things out on the internet, including Tony Horton's youtube page.  I saw a clock counting down the time to a live Tony Horton chat, and it looked like it was starting in an hour. I immediately got the workout done, sat down to watch the chat, and realized the clock was saying it was starting in a day, not one hour. So, I'll look for it tomorrow. I always enjoy Tony's chats. The workout went OK. One again, I used 25 lb dumbbells on a lot of the bicep moves because I didn't feel like adjusting my Powerblocks. I used 45s on most of the back moves, and started with 40s on the strip set. Sounds like a repeat of the last time I did this workout, 2 weeks ago. I did get a few extra pull-ups in, though, getting to 27, which sucks, but that's a weakness to me. "I presently struggle with pull-ups:.

Time: 51 minutes; Calories Burned: 530; Avg Heart Rate: 123; Max Heart Rate: 162.


THURSDAY - JULY 17, 2014 - Patience: Hummingbird (Yoga) - (One on One with Tony Horton)

Did this instead of Yoga X,. It's a good little routine. I was sweating bullets 15 minutes into it.

Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 246; Avg Heart Rate: 102; Max Heart Rate: 185.


FRIDAY - JULY 18, 2014 - Legs and Back

This went well. I did better than last week on the pullups. I've really been noticing lately that it's not my arms that are giving way on the pullups, it's my grip on the bar. That's weak. One thing I did today that I've never done with this workout, was getting my butt real low on the Groucho Walks. I could definitely feel it in my legs.

Time: 59 minutes; Calories Burned: 561; Avg Heart Rate: 118; Max Heart Rate: 153.


SATURDAY - JULY 19, 2014 - Kenpo X

An average Kenpo workout. Not much to say. I worked up a good sweat. As I've said before, this is a great Saturday workout.

Time: 58 minutes; Calories Burned: 443; Avg Heart Rate: 107; Max Heart Rate: 134.


SUNDAY - JULY 20, 2014 - Ab Ripper X

As usual I did this workout by memory, without the video. Doing this way usually takes me 20-25 minutes because I take my time and take small breaks in between the moves. Today I decided to try and do it as the do it on the video, without the breaks. It went OK, and I got it done in about 15 and a half minutes. However, I did have to stop twice during the Mason Twists (I did 52 of them) because I was exhausted.

Time: 15 minutes; Calories Burned: 137; Avg Heart Rate: 115; Max Heart Rate: 144.


SUNDAY WEIGH IN

Weight: 196.6 (+0.8 lbs)
Body Fat: 21.8% (+0.3%)

Didn't eat well this week. Not happy with myself about that. It's a real struggle for me to get the right mindset and make the commitment to do that. I need to make something in my mind "click" to get into that right mindset, to motivate me. It's just not there, but it's my goal to find it. Maybe it's just old fashioned hard wrork.
