MONDAY - JUNE 24, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Chest, Back, and Balls
I got a real late start on this ine because I had to attend a retirement get together for a co-worker. I really wasn't looking forward to doing it after a long day, but knew I had to get it done. I went quicker than he did, because I wanted to get it over with, and I also did a few reps more than I did last time, because my friend Kristin has motivated me to do more. The "Kristin Rule" is to do more reps or increase my weight on at least one move from the previous time I did that particular workout. I'd had it in the back of my mind before, and used it before many, many as motivation, but now it is officially in effect.

TUESDAY - JUNE 25, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Plyocide
I'm a bit indifferent on this one. There are a lot of one-legged moves I can barely do, so I don't get a lot out of them. Some of the others I just tolerate. But I did what I could where I could. Admittedly, not always max effort on all the moves, but there were some I did well on. One moves that's always bothered me over the years is the Depth Charges. I always felt tentative on the stool I'd been using, so today, I used my workout bench, which is a little sturdier, but had more cushion, so I still didn't feel same. However, the big fear is that I'm going to land incorrectly and sprain or break an already weak and tweaky ankle. I normally do 12 reps on that move. Today I did 6, then stopped. I think I'm going to find an alternative for that move in the future.

WEDNESDAY - JUNE 26, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Shoulders and Arms: MC2
This is a good workout. My arms are really feeling pumped afterwards. I was trying to see where I could use my "Kristen Rule" to increase my reps or weight on a move and didn't initially see one. I thought I'd maxed myself out when I last did this two weeks ago. I then realized the purpose of the rule in the first place was to get a little better somewhere, so even though I was struggling to do 12 reps of 25's on the first two sets of the Arnold Presses, I decided to use 30's instead of 25's on the final set. I did two less reps and put the weights down mid set, so I was really struggling with the increase. I then decided to do 12 reps instead of 10 reps on the Six Direction Shoulder Flys, and that worked OK. I used 40's again on the Seated Bicep Curls. I got eight reps in each time, but there were a few times I had to set the weights down for a few seconds because my form was going bad while trying to muscle up the weight in my left hand. The right seemed OK.

THURSDAY - JUNE 27, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Yoga: MC2
Long day at work. I put this off till about 8:30. My balance was bad, so I was getting frustrated a bit. I guess the best way to put it is that I endured the 66 minutes.

FRIDAY - JUNE 28, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Base and Back
Kind of an emotional day today, as a co-worker for 20 years retired today. I took the day off today to play golf (I said my good byes yesterday), so I didn't get to see her off, but knowing she won't be there on Monday to talk with is a bit of a bummer. She was the only one in the office I could talk to about things, and I'll really miss that. I got the workout started late, again. Once I get to around week 11 in these 13 week programs I start to wear out a bit. I'm not as ready to jump in and get the workout done. I'm more apt to delay it as long as possible. As with a lot of workouts, I went faster than he did and finished about five moves ahead of him. I laid on the floor a bit while he finished up, then followed him through the cool down, which was somewhat tough in itself, because I was so exhausted. A tough workout, but I did OK. My increase was doing 24 Jump Knee Tucks instead of the 20 I did last time..

SATURDAY - JUNE 29, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Total Body X
Not a lot of tough moves, but I did increase my reps on a lot of them. I was a bit ahead of him at the time, so I decided to try and do 20 Frog Burpee Squats instead of the 16 I did last time. These things kill me, especially near the end of a workout. I got the 20 in, but they were weak on the last few reps. I could barely get my legs off the ground. I then watched Tony do them on the video, and I think he only did eleven. I was happy with myself, not only because of that move, but because of the overall increases. .

SUNDAY - JUNE 30, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ARX2
It went OK. I did a few more reps on a few of the moves, including 110 Bicycles.

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
The workouts went OK. I'm stressed out with other things, so there's no doubt the workouts help with that, even though thinking about having to do the workouts each night adds to the stress. This is how I think.

WEEK OF 06/17/19 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE- ROUND 3 - WEEK 10
MONDAY - JUNE 17, 2018 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - UBX
This is not an easy workout, but I did pretty good on it today, even if I say so myself. My form probably could have been better on a few of the moves, but that would be nit picking. One modification I made was on the last move, the Overhead Tricep Extensions using a band attached to the pullup bar. I never felt safe with this move, always feeling the band would snap, or the pullup bar would come apart and hit me in the back, so I didn't go full blast with it. Today, I simply wrapped the bands around the bar and pushed down on the bands. It's still working the triceps, and I think I got more out of it.
Time: 60 minutes; Calories Burned: 586; Avg Heart Rate: 122.
TUESDAY - JUNE 18, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Core Synergistics: MC2
I've said before that this isn't my favorite workout. I tied to shut that off and just concentrate on one move at a time. It worked a bit. I still have problems doing the one-legged moves, but I tried my best. My main accomplishment, however, was doing twelve Dreya Rolls with an 8 lb Med Ball. The last three times I did this workout I got zero in. I got it done.
Time: 67 minutes; Calories Burned: 559; Avg Heart Rate: 112.
WEDNESDAY - JUNE 19, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - V-Sculpt
It went pretty well. I used the same weights I've used the last few times I did this workout, and my pull-up numbers were almost identical to last few times also. Maybe looking at those numbers put a ceiling in my brain, but I was mostly losing my grip as opposed to tiring out. I might try more weight here and there the next time. I really like the band moves. Overall, it was a good workout.
Time: 56 minutes; Calories Burned: 560; Avg Heart Rate: 124.
THURSDAY - JUNE 20, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Yoga: MC2
As I think I've said every time I do this one, I don't like it. Today I just decided to do it one move at a time and maybe I'd enjoy it more. That only worked for so long. After a while, I found myself pacing around the mat a few times because I just didn't feel like doing it. Not much more I can say.
Time: 66 minutes; Calories Burned: 447; Avg Heart Rate: 103.
FRIDAY - JUNE 21, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - P.A.P.
I'm sort of mixed on this one. I don't mind the actual P.A.P. workout with the complexes, but it's only 40 minutes of a 70 minute total workout. He spends 20 minutes on a warm-up. Part of that he calls a "heated" warm-up where you do 6 or 7 various push-up and cardio moves, the repeat them. I only did them once. I didn't want to wear myself out before the real workout began. I did OK there. I used 25's on the lunges and the push-up rows. I did two sets of plyo push-up from my knees, then did the last two sets from my feet, even though they were slow and ugly. I held the Side Planks longer than I usually do, several times going the full 30 seconds. I also did well on the 4 Ball Chaturangs Planks. I like those for some reason. The cool down was similar to the Neuro Integrated Stretching he does in X2. I'm not really a fan of it, but I don't hate it either. Overall it was an OK workout.
Time: 69 minutes; Calories Burned: 559: Avg Heart Rate: 114.
SATURDAY - JUNE 22, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Stretch and Recovery
I always look forward to Stretch workouts, and this one might be my favorite. I wasn't very flexible today, but I still enjoyed it. I sprained my outer right ankle about two weeks ago and was feeling it a bit. I hadn't really noticed how many of these stretches it came into play. It wasn't a major problem, though.
Time: 69 minutes; Calories Burned: 361; Avg Heart Rate: 94.
SUNDAY - JUNE 23, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ARX2
Nothing exceptional. I did 20 reps on all the moves, except for the Scissor Clappers, which I did 40. I just like that move. I've always done 20 reps with this workout. Maybe next time I bump it up to 24.

WEEK OF 06/10/19 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE- ROUND 3 - WEEK 9
MONDAY - JUNE 10, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Chest, Back, and Balls
Start of month three, and Volume Three of the One On One's. These workouts are generally longer and a bit tougher in some areas than Volumes One and Two. Today's went OK as I was used to most of the moves. I didn't really have too many problems with the push-ups, except for the "Possible Push-up", where I didn't get any reps in. I kept losing my balance trying to get into it, then realized I was so exhausted and disoriented that I'd hurt myself by trying further. I also didn't go too low on the Three Ball Military Push-up, but I did get some reps in. I also did OK on the pull-ups. Not big numbers, but OK for me.

TUESDAY - JUNE 11, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Plyocide
I must admit it was a pretty lame effort today. I ate a bit heavy at lunch today for the first time in weeks, and I felt a bit sluggish at the start. I sat though the jump rope warm up, didn't really do any deep stretches, then carried that through to the workout. On a scale of 1 to 10, my effort was a 3 or a 4. One of those days,but I can learn from it a bit.
Time: 66 minutes; Calories Burned: 456; Avg Heart Rate: 112.
WEDNESDAY - JUNE 12, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Shoulders and Arms: MC2
Old school weights. I used 40's on the Seated Bicep Curls. I did eight reps each time, and put the weights down a few times during the sets. I used 50 on the Stability Ball Overhead Tricep Extensions. No problems with that. I used 20's on all three sets of the Crazy 8's. Those got heavy real fast. I was considering going down to 15's on the last set, but decided to gut it out with the20's, and finished up without losing too much form. I feel pumped afterwards.

FRIDAY - JUNE 14, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Base and Back
I went faster than Tony did because I wanted to get this done. I finished all 20 moves when he was just finishing up number eleven. I then laid on the floor until he got to the cool down. I realize he was doing a lot more pull-ups than I was, and was doing a few more plyo reps than I was, so I'm not comparing myself to him. I was just taking shorter breaks and was moving to the next move when I was recovered. I did OK for me on the pull-ups and did 20 reps on each of the plyo moves. I'm certainly better at pull-ups than I was a few years ago, but still have a ways to go before I'm where I want to be.

MONDAY - JUNE 3, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Upper Body Balance
I was increasing my reps over last time on most of the push-up moves, but I know I wasn't going too low on most of them. Still, the effort was there. Zero Impossible Push-ups.
Time: 53 minutes; Calories Burned: 494; Avg Heart Rate: 118.
TUESDAY - JUNE 4, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - On One Leg For Legs
Maybe a bit better in some areas than in the past, but not by much. I did 10 reps on each side on each move. I noticed early on I could have done many more, but I didn't. I guess I didn't see the point because I felt I wouldn't be learning from it, that I'd be just as bad next time. Still, maybe a glimmer of hope.
Time: 52 minutes; Calories Burned: 369; Avg Heart Rate: 106.
WEDNESDAY - JUNE 5, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Back and Belly
For some reason I can do more pull-ups on this routine than others, even though it's the same move. Maybe it's because there aren't many pull-up routines in the series, and I'm not as tired? Or maybe I'm just stronger? Who knows? I exceeded my numbers from two weeks ago on a few of the moves and got worse on one. That was the Close Grip "X' Pull-ups. I don't know why, but I was out of gas on those, as Tony says at the end of the workout. The ab moves went OK, but I'm still not a fan of those V-up roll ups. Never have been, but I got them done. A good workout. Short and sweet, and to the point.

THURSDAY - JUNE 6, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Patience Hummingbird (Yoga)
My mind was racing with other things at the beginning of the workout. It quieted down after a few minutes and I found myself enjoying the workout a lot more. I wasn't trying to be perfect on my poses. On my Warrior 2 pose I concentrated on getting my lead arm on plane with my front leg, and that seemed to work great. I was even able to hold my Half Moons. So, all in all, I'd consider it a good workout. One thing I need to keep in check, though, is that I'm drinking way too much pop lately. Way to much. It's making me edgy. I'm also not eating great. I've been losing pounds, so I've been getting a little cocky with it, but the reason I'm losing weight is because I'm not eating a lot because I'm a bit depressed and anxious about a few things going on in my life. So, I have to get conscious control of the nutrition.

FRIDAY - JUNE 7, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 100/30/20
I played golf this morning and twisted my ankle while stepping into a hole while getting into the golf cart. It immediately swelled up inside my shoe, but I finished up. When I got home it was still swollen, but I mowed the lawn, just to get it dome. I was putting off the workout because I wasn't sure what the jump roping would do to my ankle. As it turns out, it was OK. I got in 333 jumps during the eight rounds. In the Bonus Round I see how many misses it takes me to get in 100 jumps. Two weeks ago it was 26 misses. Today it was only nine, and most of those were late. I think iI was a 69 jumps before I had my second miss. During the max push-ups, I did 86, one more than last time.

SATURDAY - JUNE 8, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Cardio Confusion: Mason's Choice
I like this one so much, it doesn't even seem like a workout to me. It's just fun, but at the same time it is a workout. I did better than two weeks ago. I didn't stop during any of the moves, even though The Egan Brother and Press Jacks are killers near the end of the workout. I'm happy with it today.

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
This is the end of month two, and volume two of the workouts. I think of the three volumes, this is my favorite. The workouts are a bit shorter and a bit more free form. Hard to explain what I mean there. The workouts went OK this week.

I guess I didn't see the point because I felt I wouldn't be learning from it, that I'd be just as bad next time. Still, maybe a glimmer of hope.

WEDNESDAY - JUNE 5, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Back and Belly
For some reason I can do more pull-ups on this routine than others, even though it's the same move. Maybe it's because there aren't many pull-up routines in the series, and I'm not as tired? Or maybe I'm just stronger? Who knows? I exceeded my numbers from two weeks ago on a few of the moves and got worse on one. That was the Close Grip "X' Pull-ups. I don't know why, but I was out of gas on those, as Tony says at the end of the workout. The ab moves went OK, but I'm still not a fan of those V-up roll ups. Never have been, but I got them done. A good workout. Short and sweet, and to the point.

THURSDAY - JUNE 6, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Patience Hummingbird (Yoga)
My mind was racing with other things at the beginning of the workout. It quieted down after a few minutes and I found myself enjoying the workout a lot more. I wasn't trying to be perfect on my poses. On my Warrior 2 pose I concentrated on getting my lead arm on plane with my front leg, and that seemed to work great. I was even able to hold my Half Moons. So, all in all, I'd consider it a good workout. One thing I need to keep in check, though, is that I'm drinking way too much pop lately. Way to much. It's making me edgy. I'm also not eating great. I've been losing pounds, so I've been getting a little cocky with it, but the reason I'm losing weight is because I'm not eating a lot because I'm a bit depressed and anxious about a few things going on in my life. So, I have to get conscious control of the nutrition.

FRIDAY - JUNE 7, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 100/30/20
I played golf this morning and twisted my ankle while stepping into a hole while getting into the golf cart. It immediately swelled up inside my shoe, but I finished up. When I got home it was still swollen, but I mowed the lawn, just to get it dome. I was putting off the workout because I wasn't sure what the jump roping would do to my ankle. As it turns out, it was OK. I got in 333 jumps during the eight rounds. In the Bonus Round I see how many misses it takes me to get in 100 jumps. Two weeks ago it was 26 misses. Today it was only nine, and most of those were late. I think iI was a 69 jumps before I had my second miss. During the max push-ups, I did 86, one more than last time.

SATURDAY - JUNE 8, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Cardio Confusion: Mason's Choice
I like this one so much, it doesn't even seem like a workout to me. It's just fun, but at the same time it is a workout. I did better than two weeks ago. I didn't stop during any of the moves, even though The Egan Brother and Press Jacks are killers near the end of the workout. I'm happy with it today.

SUNDAY - JUNE 9, 2019 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Iso Abs
The workout went well. I really, really like this workout. Except for the Banana Boats, which I struggle with a bit, none of the other moves are exceptionally hard, but I do feel them in my abs. I'll miss this workout.

SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 170.8 (no change)
Body Fat: 15.6% (-0.3%)
Nice drop on the body fat.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
This is the end of month two, and volume two of the workouts. I think of the three volumes, this is my favorite. The workouts are a bit shorter and a bit more free form. Hard to explain what I mean there. The workouts went OK this week.
