MONDAY - OCTOBER 29, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Chest, Back and Balls
Start of Month Three and Volume Three. As a whole Volume Three might be tougher than Volumes One and Two. These were the testing grounds for P90X2. This one wasn't as tough as it could have been because most of the ball pushup moves were in Volume Two. There were a lot of pullup moves I couldn't do with my pullup bar, so I went to some standard type pullup moves instead. I did better than usual on those. All told, it was a good workout. One caveat though. I filmed myself doing the Four Ball Pushups and noticed my butt was up in the air, so my form needs to improve on a lot of the moves.

TUESDAY - OCTOBER 30, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Plyocide
This always seems like a bit of a dis-jointed workout in that I'm not sure what is trying to be accomplished. There are some moves that are explosive upwards, but there are others where your feet don't leave the floor. I can't say I hate the workout, but I can't say I love it either. Today I did OK, but not great. I did get winded at times, and I couldn't move as fast as he did at times.
Time: 66 minutes; Calories Burned: 324; Avg Heart Rate: 116; Max Heart Rate: 148.
WEDNESDAY - OCTOBER 31, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Shoulders and Arms: MC2
This was a no frills routine. I looked at my numbers from last time (April) and tried to up my weights in a few areas. I used 40's on the Seated Bicep Curls and got in 8 reps each time. I'm fairly happy with that. I also used 20's on the last two sets on the Crazy 8's, only faltering a bit on the last few reps with the left arm. All in all, a good routine for me today.
Time: 58 minutes; Calories Burned: 251; Avg Heart Rate: 115; Max Heart Rate: 139.
THURSDAY - NOVEMBER 1, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Yoga: MC2
A friend of mine is a Power Lifter. A few months ago we were discussing our workouts and I mentioned yoga to her. She said she'd done a bit of it before, but nothing further in years. A few days ago she mentioned on Facebook that she was trying it and loved it, and even gave me credit for turning her back on to it. So, with today's workout, I guess I had a bit of a renewed spirit with it. I remember I hated the particular workout when I's done the One On One's in April. I just remembered there were a lot of strange moves. When going through it today, I realized it really wasn't that bad. There weren't really as many new moves as I had thought, just a lot of familiar moves in different sequences than I was used to. The workout went fairly well. I wasn't fighting it as much as I usually do. I was just taking it one move at a time. Some I still couldn't do, but I wasn't getting too frustrated with that. Thanks Kris!
Time: 66 minutes; Calories Burned: 164; Avg Heart Rate: 111; Max Heart Rate: 132.
FRIDAY - NOVEMBER 2, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Base and Back
This is one of those workouts where you have to collapse on the floor when you're done and lay there for a few minutes before you can get back up. Tony even does that at the end of this one. For me, the plyo moves are the ones that kill me in this workout. I did 20 reps on each of those. I still struggle with pullups, but I'm noticing I'm better than a year or so ago. My numbers were very close to those from last April, only falling a rep or two short on a few of the moves. Once again, I went a bit faster than he did on the second round because I was doing less reps than he was, and I didn't want to be sitting around waiting for the next move. That would have killed me. Tough workout.

SATURDAY - NOVEMBER 3, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Total Body X
My body was feeling tired and sore all day. I finally got it done in the early evening. Some moves are tough, some aren't, but thee are only 16 of them, so I didn't have too many problems. The Frog Burpee Squats near the end were cruel, though. I felt much better when I was done.
Time: 41 minutes; Calories Burned: 157; Avg Heart Rate: 110; Max Heart Rate: 139.
SUNDAY - NOVEMBER 4, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Ab Ripper X 2
I think I did fairly well. The first two moves really had my abs on fire, and I wondered how I was going to get through it, but they calmed down and I was all right.
Time: 45 minutes; Calories Burned: 119; Avg Heart Rate: 104; Max Heart Rate: 137.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 178.6 (-0,4 lbs)
Body Fat: 17.8% (-0,1)
Nice, but still could be eating better, And the ironic thing is that I want to eat better. I'm just not planning.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I knew these workouts were going to be tough, but going through the first two months prepared me for them. I'm doing well.

WEEK OF 10/22/18 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 2 - WEEK 8
MONDAY - OCTOBER 22, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Upper Body Balance
I'm very happy with my effort today. I still couldn't do one Impossible Pushup, but I did very well on most of the other moves. The only other one I struggled with was the last bonus move, the Plyo pushups on the ball. I wasn't going real deep on it. I didn't go very deep on most of the pushups, but I was deep enough. I also did very well on the boat moves, keeping my balance on them all.
Time: 53 minutes; Calories Burned: 218; Avg Heart Rate: 114; Max Heart Rate: 150.
TUESDAY - OCTOBER 23, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - On One Leg For Legs
Not anywhere near good, but maybe a smidge better than usual. I pumped up my new Bosu Ball before the workout, thinking I might be able to use it as an alternate to some of the moves in the workout, but never really saw the chance. However, I did do 25 pushups on it while they were doing their penalty pushups. I then flipped it over and did another 25 pushups. I also did 10 full squats on it, touching my hands to the ball. It wasn't super hard, but I had to go real slow, and I'm sure my core was working.
Time: 51 minutes; Calories Burned: 159; Avg Heart Rate: 111; Max Heart Rate: 138.
WEDNESDAY - OCTOBER 24, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Back and Belly
The ab moves were fine. The chin-up moves are fine, but I'm still struggling with the pull-ups. I get to the point where I think I can't do another, and I can't do another. I can't fight through it. It's like my arms have no strength in them at that point. Frustrating, because I'm able to do more and more with other exercises. Just not pull-ups.
Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 141; Avg Heart Rate: 113; Max Heart Rate: 146.
Just a small rant on the Fit Bit I'm using as my Heart Rate Momitor. This thing is great for tracking what you're eating, counting your steps, etc, but I have to think it's way off on how many calories I'm burning during my workouts, especially the strength ones where I'm not moving my feet a lot. When I'm sweating like a pig for 45 minutes and it's telling me I'm burning under 200 calories, something is wrong. The Polar Heart Rate Monitor I used to use had me burning about 10 calories a minute on most workouts, both strength and cardio. This thing is telling me I'm burning 4 a minute.
THURSDAY - OCTOBER 25, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Patience Hummingbird

FRIDAY - OCTOBER 26, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 100/30/20
I really like this workout. I started a bit slow with the jump ropes, but didn't fall apart after the fourth round like I usually do. I tried again what I'd attempted to do last time in the Bonus Round, doing 100 jumps and counting my misses, but this time I succeeded. I got in the 100 jumps, but had 15 misses, most near the end. Last time I only got to about 50 before Tony finished.

SATURDAY - OCTOBER 27, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Cardio Confusion: Mason's Choice
A good workout. There were a few moves where I consciously knew I was pushing harder than I usually do. Not a big deal ("I'm Kind Of A Big Deal"), but still something.

WEEK OF 10/15/18 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 2 - WEEK 7
MONDAY - OCTOBER 15, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Core Ball Sandwich
I'm still not great at the final pushup move because I probably am not doing it right. I also struggle a bit with the moving pushup moves, and my pullups were a bit weak, but other than that I did great on the few remaining moves.
Time: 40 minutes; Calories Burned: 159; Avg Heart Rate: 118; Max Heart Rate: 143.
TUESDAY - OCTOBER 16. 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Butt and Belly
Tony's in a real good mood in this one, so it makes the workout fun. Still, it's sneaky tough. As I've said before the Frog Squats are brutal. 30 of them at a relatively low speed and palming the floor. Ouch! By the time I get to #18 I have to come up and give my legs a small break, then get back into them and come out again a few times more before I get to 30.

WEDNESDAY - OCTOBER 17, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ONE ONE - On One Leg
This is usually a waste of time for me because I can't balance on one leg long enough for this routine yo be effective. I'm usually tapping my foot on each rep which is kind of defeating the purpose of this routine. Today I thought I'd try something different. My sister has given me a small bosu type stability balancing thing she wasn't using, so I was going to try and keep both feet and that while doing the moves. I figured it would force me to keep balancing in a different way. I tried it for the first few moves and couldn't keep my balance at all, partly because it was harder than I thought and partly because I could barely keep both feet on it, as it wasn't very large, only about a foot in diameter.. I then tried putting my "up" foot on a medicine ball. This worked a bit better because I found I could hover my foot above the ball and if I had to tap, my foot only went to the top of the ball instead of all the way to the floor. It even got to the point where I could go more reps without even tapping the ball at all. I'll try this again in the future. I think I'm also going to try and get a real bosu ball and work with that a bit.

I got a lot done at work today, and I have the day off tomorrow to play some golf, so I felt a little less stressed than usual going into it. I can;'t say the workout went a lot better than usual, but maybe a bit better. I certainly felt more relaxed, which is the purpose of yoga. I feel good afterwards.

FRIDAY - OCTOBER 19, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 10 Minute Crusher Pack
I did OK. I'm becoming a bit more familiar with each of the routines. om the 20/12 Abs I'm limited to the range of motion on the hanging moves because I'm doing them in a doorway and I can only go so far left and right, and can't extend my legs too far down because I'm so close to the floor. ut I did the best I could and did 6 reps as opposed to his 12. Hopefully I'll be able to do more once I figure out what I'm doing. On the free form Shadow Boxing moves I'm stick to one Kenpo move on each of the five rounds, None of these are super tough moves, but I do work up a sweat. As I've said with a lot of the One On One workouts, they're sneaky tough. I also bought myself a Bosu Ball today and will be trying it out in the next few days. I'm interested to see what I can do with it.

MONDAY - OCTOBER 8, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Upper Body Balance
Not my favorite workout. I'm not fond of the "ball" pushups nor "boat" moves. However, I gave it my all and pushed myself past my numbers from last time on a lot of the moves. I must say I do like 4 ball pushups a lot. For some reason I can do them with relative ease. I got 25 of them in today. Overall I'm very pleased with my effort.

TUESDAY - OCTOBER 9, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - On One Leg For Legs
Just after finishing this one a friend of mine called me. During the conversation he mentioned that his daughter had just received a promotion at work and was feeling a bit overwhelmed because she didn't know everything. He said she got the promotion in the first place because her supervisor knew she fought through things she didn't know or couldn't do and didn't give up. As he was telling me this I was thinking about the workout I just did. I can't balance on one leg to save my life, but I did my best on this workout. I tapped my foot on almost every move and I did less reps than Tony, but I kept going. Even though I failed on almost every rep, I kept going, and that makes me feel good.

FRIDAY - OCTOBER 12, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 100/30/20
100 Jump Ropes, 30 Crunches, 20 Pushups. 8 Rounds. I like this routine a lot. I'm always a bit wary of jump ropes but I started out strong (for me), doing 40-50 reps on each of the first 4 rounds. I was watching my numbers from the last time I did this, in March, and I noticed I did the same thing happened then, but then my numbers started to fall off significantly. I was feeling real good and didn't think it would happen again, but it did. My numbers in each round were eerily similar to the ones in March. In the Bonus Round Tony's goal is 100 jumps without a miss. I remembered this took a while, so my thought was to do 100 and count how many misses it took me to get there. That didn't happen. I had about 12 misses by the time I got to 30 jumps. When he was done I was around 40 jumps. I guess I was done. One thing I did accomplish was on the pushups. On the last set he does as many as he can until he burns out. I saw I did 55 last March. Today I did 80, a personal best. I wasn't going real low, but close to as low as he was,

During the conversation he mentioned that his daughter had just received a promotion at work and was feeling a bit overwhelmed because she didn't know everything. He said she got the promotion in the first place because her supervisor knew she fought through things she didn't know or couldn't do and didn't give up. As he was telling me this I was thinking about the workout I just did. I can't balance on one leg to save my life, but I did my best on this workout. I tapped my foot on almost every move and I did less reps than Tony, but I kept going. Even though I failed on almost every rep, I kept going, and that makes me feel good.

WEDNESDAY - OCTOBER 10, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Back and Belly
I just like this workout. Simple moves. Good pace. I did my best on the pullups. Just like yesterday, they weren't pretty, but I did my best.

THURSDAY - OCTOBER 11, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Patience Hummingbird
I wasn't as a relaxed as I should have been. My mind was wandering with work issues and I lost my balance several tines from trying too hard and being rigid.

FRIDAY - OCTOBER 12, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 100/30/20
100 Jump Ropes, 30 Crunches, 20 Pushups. 8 Rounds. I like this routine a lot. I'm always a bit wary of jump ropes but I started out strong (for me), doing 40-50 reps on each of the first 4 rounds. I was watching my numbers from the last time I did this, in March, and I noticed I did the same thing happened then, but then my numbers started to fall off significantly. I was feeling real good and didn't think it would happen again, but it did. My numbers in each round were eerily similar to the ones in March. In the Bonus Round Tony's goal is 100 jumps without a miss. I remembered this took a while, so my thought was to do 100 and count how many misses it took me to get there. That didn't happen. I had about 12 misses by the time I got to 30 jumps. When he was done I was around 40 jumps. I guess I was done. One thing I did accomplish was on the pushups. On the last set he does as many as he can until he burns out. I saw I did 55 last March. Today I did 80, a personal best. I wasn't going real low, but close to as low as he was,

SATURDAY - OCTOBER 13, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Cardio Confusion: Mason's Choice
I really enjoy doing this one, so I usually give a good effort. Today was no exception.
Time: 43 minutes: Calories Burned: 255; Avg Heart Rate: 120; Max Heart Rate: 157.
SUNDAY - OCTOBER 14, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Iso Abs
I really like this one also. I really reel it in my abs when I'm doing the workout and also afterwards. I still have problems with the Banana Boat, especially in the second round, but do well on all the other moves.
Time: 38 minutes; Calories Burned: 63; Avg Heart Rate: 94; Max Heart Rate: 119.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 179.2 (-0.6 lbs)
Body Fat: 18.2% (no change)
Didn't eat great again.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I really, really, really like these workouts. They look like easy throwaway workouts at first glance, but they're extremely effective. Love them. I do need to concentrate on my eating a bit more. I'm losing weight, but what I'm eating could be better.

WEEK OF 10/01/18 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 2 - WEEK 5
MONDAY - OCTOBER 1, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Core Ball Sandwich
Sort of a choppy workout as I had to stop a few times. There are 10 moves in round 1, then repeated for round 2 The first round goes very slow for some reason. He goes faster in the second round because he's running out of time, but I went even faster because I wasn't able to do as many reps as he was on each move. There's definitely things I can improve on here.
Time: 41 minutes; Calories Burned: 142; Avg Heart Rate: 109; Max Heart Rate: 142.
TUESDAY - OCTOBER 2, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Butt and Belly
I like this workout, except for the Frog Squats, which are quad killers. I even liked the 8 card pickup move as I'm getting used to it.
Time: 46 minutes; Calories Burned: 206; Avg Heart Rate: 116; Max Heart Rate: 151.
WEDNESDAY - OCTOBER 3, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - On One Leg
Shoulders and Arms balancing on one leg. I used 15 lbs on most exercises, 10's on the tricep moves. I was stumbling all over the place, but did the best I could. Not really an effective workout for me.
Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 138; Avg Heart Rate; 115: Max Heart Rate: 142.
THURSDAY - OCTOBER 4, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Patience Hummingbird
The last few times I did this routine the sequences started making sense so it became more interesting and enjoyable. Today I was out of synch a bit, but I still did OK I do like that it's a shorter workout with mostly simpler poses.
Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 65; Avg Heart Rate; 100: Max Heart Rate: 120.
FRIDAY - OCTOBER 5, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 10 Minute Crusher Pack
I sort of like this one because it's not that long, but I really don't like the Ab moves on the pullup bar in the 20/12 Abs section. The Legs of Gold section is OK because they're simple leg moves. Shadow Boxing is probably my favorite, as I like getting better with the jump rope and the boxing moves are kind of silly and almost a break, which is appreciated once in a while.
Time: 33 minutes; Calories Burned: 170; Avg Heart Rate; 117: Max Heart Rate: 144.
SATURDAY - OCTOBER 6, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Cardio Intervals
No real hard cardio moves on this one, but for some reason I don't give it my all. Maybe it's because the moves aren't that hard. I didn't really dog it, but I could have done better. I may learn to like and appreciate this one more than I do right now.
Time: 41 minutes; Calories Burned: 247; Avg Heart Rate; 116: Max Heart Rate: 142.
SUNDAY - OCTOBER 7, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Iso Abs
My favorite ab workout and one of the longest. I did pretty good on it today. For some reason it just hits the spot with me.
Time: 38 minutes; Calories Burned: 62; Avg Heart Rate; 97: Max Heart Rate: 122.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 179.8 (-2.0 lbs)
Body Fat: 18.2% (-0.2%)
Both are good numbers. It's the first time I've been under 180 in years.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
These workouts don't seem as tough as Volume One's, but they're still effective. I'm happy with the weight loss, but more importantly I'm feeling good and more toned.
