MONDAY - SEPTEMBER 7, 2015 - P90X3 - The Challenge
It's been a month since I finished Body Beast. I had a lot of things going on near the end of the summer, so I planned to take that time off and start P90X3 today. My weight is at the heaviest in years. I can feel it at times, so I really need to concentrate on my nutrition.
Today was The Challenge, which is 30 minutes of Chest and Back. Because I haven't done concentrated pushups or pullups in many. many months I decided to start light and targeted just 4 pullups and 20 pushups. I hit each of those numbers although it was a struggle on a few of the sets. I came off the pullup bar after 3 reps a few times, but got back up and finished the set. 4 sounds like a real low number, and it is, but I really struggle with them, even after doing them for a while. All in all, I was happy with the workout. I think I'm going to be sore at some point, probably on Wednesday.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 231; Avg Heart Rate: 118; Max Heart Rate: 212.
TUESDAY - SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 - P90X3 - Agility X
I enjoyed this one today. I tried going hard when I could, but still don't have the footwork down. I remember that happened the first time I went through this workout. The Plyo Pushups at the end weren't happening.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 303; Avg Heart Rate: 123; Max Heart Rate: 147.
WEDNESDAY - SEPTEMBER 9, 2015 - P90X3 - The Warrior
This one should be easier for me than it was. A rotation of Upper, Cardio, Middle, Lower moves. I pretty much sucked today. I'm not back in shape yet, and it humbled me.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 294; Avg Heart Rate: 123; Max Heart Rate: 150.
THURSDAY - SEPTEMBER 10, 2015 - P90X3 - X3 Yoga
I checked my workout logs and the last time I did a yoga routine was in November 2014. Needless to say I wasn't very flexible, but I did enjoy it.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 198; Avg Heart Rate:107; Max Heart Rate: 124.
FRIDAY - SEPTEMBER 11, 2015 - P90X3 - Total Synergistics
Once again, I was terrible. No strength or endurance at all. It's frustrating, but I'm doing this to get all that back.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 291; Avg Heart Rate: 125; Max Heart Rate: 202.
SATURDAY - SEPTEMBER 12, 2015 - P90X3 - CVX
I felt pretty good when I woke up this morning, so I got this one done early. I wasn't as sluggish as I'd been the last few days. I still struggled a few times, but overall my endurance was much better.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 303; Avg Heart Rate: 129; Max Heart Rate: 152.
SUNDAY - SEPTEMBER 13, 2015 - P90X3 - X3 Ab Ripper
Got it done early again. I did quite well for the first time doing this in a year and a half. My range of motion wasn't great in some areas, but I got all the moves in. I'm happy with the last two days.
Time: 15 minutes; Calories Burned: 113; Avg Heart Rate: 143; Max Heart Rate: 220.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 205.6 (-1.6 lbs)
Body Fat: 24.0% (-0.1%)
It's a start. I didn't eat perfect, but was at least conscious of things.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
My fitness isn't where it should be, but Saturday and Sunday gave me some hope.
