MONDAY - JANUARY 28, 2019 - P90X2 - X2 Chest + Shoulders + Tris
I saw this was relatively shorter than most of the other workouts, so I was a bit excited. It didn't look like any of the moves were extra hard, so I was more excited. It still wore me out. I did 30s/25s/20s on the Shoulder Press Strip set. I've done heavier weights in the past, but haven't done that mich lately, so I tried to play it smart. As it was, the 30's did feel heavy at first. I got in 6 repd each of the 3 ball Extravaganza. I didn't get me knee all the way to my tricep, but I gestured at it, and it might have been more than half way. The three ball tricep dips gave me a bit of a problem balancing my feet on the front ball, but I got in 12 reps each time. I thought my balance would have been better on that one, but I'll work on it. Overall, this one tired me a bit more than I thought it would have, but that's cool.

TUESDAY - JANUARY 29, 2019 - P90X2 - Plyocide
Storm brewing outside. Not really in the mood to do the workout. I always struggle with the Warrior 3 Lunges, but today I wasn't even trying. That was my low point. After that I put a bit more effoert into it, but it still wasn't a great workout.
Time: 55 minutes; Calories Burned: 509; Avg Heart Rate: 118; Intensity: 5; Form: 5.
WEDNESDAY - JANUARY 30, 2019 - P90X2 - Recovery + Mobility
No work today because of a blizzard, so I just stayed home and got in some much needed relaxation. My body and mind needed it. It's amazing how much we overlook that. Today's workout added to that. The only problems I had was with the touch downs, as usual. Ankles and shoulders once again with the foam roller.
Time: 57 minutes; Calories Burned: 236; Avg Heart Rate: 89; Intensity: 7; Form: 9.
THURSDAY - JANUARY 31, 2019 - P90X2 - V Sculpt
Another day off of work. I got this one in late afternoon. I hadn't remembered too much about this one so I watched a couple YouTube videos on it and they said it was hard. I went at it hard. When trying to determine which weights to use on an exercise, I tried going high. Even with that, there were a few moves I can even go higher next time. Pull-ups are my weakness, and there were a lot of them, but I did what I could. My Form score below will reflect that. I was good on the weight moves. I feel really good and energized afterwards.
Time: 53 minutes; Calpries Burned: 482; Avtg Heart Rate: 121; Intensity: 8; Form: 6.
FRIDAY - FEBRUARY 1, 2019 - P90X2 - X2 Yoga
While I was finishing up in Shivasana I realized how relaxing most of the workout was. I found myself enjoying Tony and the cast more than I had in the past, They seemed to be having a good time and I got caught up in it without noticing it. I still struggled with the Half Moons, but I did get to touch my fingers in both attempts at the Wrap. Before the workout I pulled out my Rumble Roller because I had a little crick in my back. One of my vertebrae felt a bit out of place. While rolling I heard it click into place, and it feels better. All in all, a good workout.
Time: 67 minutes; Calories Burned: 455; Avg Heart Rate: 103; Intensity: 8; Form: 8.
SATURDAY - FEBRUARY 2, 2019 - P90X2 - Base + Back
I went a bit faster than they did on the video, finishing about 3 moves ahead of them. In fairness, I wasn't doing anywhere near the amount of pull-ups they were doing, and I was only doing 20 reps on each plyo move, and I think they were doing 25. I'm still not comfortable with the pull-ups after all these years. They're still a massive struggle for me.
Time: 55 minutes; Calories Burned: 509; Avg Heart RateL 118; Intensity: 7; Form: 6.
SUNDAY - FEBRUARY 3, 2019 - P90X2 - X2 Ab Ripper
For some reason I struggled on some of the moves, coming out of them a few times.
Time: 16 minutes; Calories Burned: 115; Avg Heart Rate: 104; Intensity: 6; Form: 6.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 175.2 (-1.2 lbs)
Body Fat: 17.0% (-0.2%)
Back to where I was 2 weeks ago.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
Not a good week mentally, but I got the workouts in. I ate like crap the last two days. I'll be OK, though. I just have to realize I'm doing this to get in better shape, not to just get the workouts done to say I did them.
