MONDAY - AUGUST 26, 2019 - P90X3 - Isometrix
This one is tough for me because I can't balance on one leg. I did the best I could. Holding the various plank moves for 45 seconds is also tough, but again, I did the best I could. I think I hed most of them for the 45 seconds, but I know there were a couple I came out of early, mostly because my back feet were turning.

TUESDAY - AUGUST 27, 2019 - P90X3 - Accelerator
This is a pure cardio routine, one of the most difficult Tony has in his arsenal. I remember the many times in the past where I went to my knees midway through many of the moves. For some reason today I never did that. There were times I was going a bit slower than they were because of balance or coordination issues, but for much of the workout I was right there. I'm sweating like crazy afterwards.

WEDNESDAY - AUGUST 28, 2019 - P90X3 - Dynamix
My Birthday today. I turned 62. I don't feel like it. I feel like I'm 40. I'm crediting these workouts I've done over the last 11 years with a lot of that. Today was a mobility workout. I did OK. My awkward knees (twisting in) curbs a lot of that mobility, but I did what I could. It was a perfect workout for my Birthday. Relaxing, and not beating my body up.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 227; Avg Heart Rate: 106.
THURSDAY - AUGUST 29, 2019 - P90X3 - Pilates X
Not horrible, but not great. I didn't go up on the side plank moves near the end. My left ankle cramped up, so I did those moves from my hip. From what I remember that's how I did them anyways. My mobility on those is bad to begin with.

FRIDAY - AUGUST 30, 2019 - P90X3 - Decelerator
I hadn't done X3 in two years ,but I remembered I didn't like this one. I thought my recall might have been exaggerated, so I went into it with a fresh mind and decided to take it one move at at time, I didn't like it again. Too many moves I really can't do properly for one reason or another. But I got through it.

SATURDAY - AUGUST 31, 2019 - P90X3 - X3 Yoga
This was a very long day filled with a fantasy football draft and follow up. I squeezed this workout in around 8:30 pm. It wasn't bad. My balance still sucks, but it's always like that. My mood was OK for it, though.

Maybe the scale is stuck?
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I'm a bit ambivalent about "Recovery" weeks. On the one hand, I like relaxing a bit and not beating my body to a pulp. On the other hand, not doing that for a full week leaves me wanting a bit more. Not that these workouts are a cake walk. They're not, but even though the moves from one workout to the nest aren't identical, the premise is similar enough to get a bit bored. Accelerator is a change of pace here, but Decelerator doesn't really belong in a Recovery week. I just put it here because I created the schedule myself, to model the original P90X, and I didn't have anyplace else to put it. The original "X" had Core Synergistics twice during the Recovery Week, and it's somewhat tough, but the X3 Recovery Week is a different beast than the original P90X and Decelerator is just a shock.

WEEK OF 08/19/19 - P90X3 - ROUND 7 - WEEK 3
MONDAY - AUGUST 19, 2019 - P90X3 - Total Synergistics
I took it one move at a time and did OK. I used a 40 lb dumbbell on Relive' Plie's and got in 36 reps. I used a 30 on the Squat Rockers and got in 30 reps. I struggled mightily on the one legged balance moves, but other than that I was fine.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 324; Avg Heart Rate: 128.
TUESDAY - AUGUST 20, 2019 - P90X3 - Agility X
I tried to keep a good attitude about this one today and was pretty successful. Just as yesterday, I took it one move at a time. I did what I could today, instead of getting frustrated and giving up on a lot of the moves. The results weren't always great, but the effort was better. The only one I gave up on was the 3.4 Run near the end, but he's changing direction so fast, it's almost impossible to keep up. Overall, I felt better about this workout than I have in a long time.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 266; Avg Heart Rate: 115.
WEDNESDAY - AUGUST 21, 2019 - P90X3 - The Challenge
I upped my numbers to 35 pushups and 7 pullups. I didn't think the pushups would be a problem, and they weren't, but I thought 7 pullups might be stretching it a bit, because they were times in the recent past where I struggled with three. On the first set of Wide Grip Pullups I felt my left bicep tweak a bit. I got in 6 pullups, came off the bar, then got back up and did the other. On the second set, with my bicep still a bit wonky, I came down after 4, then did 1, then another 1, then another 1. I thought I was in trouble, but my bicep calmed down and did 7 on all the remaining pullup moves without coming off the bar. I actually felt pretty strong on most of them. I was starting to feel some of pushups during the second half of the workout, but never really came close to failure. I feel good that I'm able to progress like I have. I haven't always felt that way.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 194; Avg Heart Rate: 108 (I think my heart rate monitor crashed before I finished.)
THURSDAY - AUGUST 22, 2019 - P90X3 - X3 Yoga
I was feeling pretty good and a bit more relaxed going in than I am sometimes. It certainly wasn't perfect. I was losing my balance a lot. Last week's workout went pretty well, so I guess I was trying to out perform it, and while doing so, I think it made me tense up and lose that balance. However, I didn't become overly frustrated. I just expressed a little shock and moved on.

FRIDAY - AUGUST 23, 2019 - P90X3 - CVX
I played golf this morning for the first time in a month, and I have a fantasy football draft this evening, so I had to squeeze this in between. My feet were a bit sore when I got home from golf, but I forced myself to get at this workout pretty quickly, so I didn't feel rushed later. The killer move for me in this workout is the Press Jacks, which I had to do twice in the first four moves. I was wondering how my feet would take it. It wasn't too bad, but I did have to miss a couple reps here and there because I was out of wind, After that I was OK and finished up fine.

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
In my mind, I'm trying harder, especially on the workouts I don't like too much. Whether I really am is up in the air. I do know I'm sore. My legs and arms are feeling heavy.

I was feeling sluggish going into it. Normally that wears off, but not today. This workout is very uninspiring to me, so I half assed my way through most of it, barely going through the motions. My balance was horrible and I couldn't move fast. I wish I could take something positive out of it, but I can't. A complete waste of 30 minutes.

FRIDAY - AUGUST 16, 2019 - P90X3 - CVX
Another good effort. Because I've been getting pretty good results over the last year and a half with the One On Ones, P90X, and P90X2, I'd been hesitant to go back to 30 minute workouts. I thought there was a chance I'd lose my momentum. I'm still very wary of that, but I'm trying to give it my all for the 30 minutes. A lot of these workouts, that's tough, because a lot of them rely on balance, which I'm horrible at, and I get frustrated with them (see Agility X). Today, I tried hard. Not super hard on some moves, but I was cognizant of the fact I have to push myself in the shorter period of time. I just have to keep it up, especially when I don't want to. I burned a lot of calories for the time today.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 340; Avg Heart Rate: 131.
SATURDAY - AUGUST 17, 2019 - P90X3 - The Warrior
As with last week, I just took it one move at a time, but knew to pace myself, as there are very few moves where you can relax a bit. I suppose I could have done a little bit better here and there, but if I had, I;m wondering if I'd have had any gas left on other moves.

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
It didn't start out too good because I really don't like Monday's and Tuesday's workout. However after that I think I did pretty good. As I said, I was really, really sore on Sunday morning. It was probably a combination of CVX and The Warrior, but I'm guessing more CVX. I finally broke the 170 plateau, which I'm happy about. I'd done it about seven years ago, but I found that scale was showing about 10 lbs lower than I actually was, so I'm not counting that.

WEEK OF 08/05/19 - P90X3 - ROUND 7 - WEEK 1
MONDAY - AUGUST 5, 2019 - P90X3 -Total Synergistics
Back at it after three weeks off. I wasn't feeling too well today, so I almost took this week off too, but decided I should get back into it, so I put the DVD in. I'm starting at 170.2 lbs and 15.6% body fat, which is a little down from when I finished the One On One's three weeks ago. X3 is not my favorite workout series because there isn't a lot of resistance training. I've done P90X and P90X2 in between my rounds of the One On Ones, and to my surprise, I haven't done P90X3 in two years, so I figured it was time to give it a try again. Maybe I've learned something over the last two years that will help with this round.
Today's workout started out OK. I wasn't feeling rusty at all. I got in all 23 of the Crawly Crab Pushups and even did great on the Boat to Plow move. However, a little past half way through I started getting a bit tired. He moves fast in X3 and there were times when I didn't even have time to write down my reps. I used 40 lbs on the Plie' Relive's without any problems, but when I tried 40's again on the Squat Rockers I found it was a mistake. Probably because I was holding the weight higher and I was tired. I was bad as usual on the one-legged balance moves. Finishing with the Half Moon Warrior Three thingy's was just plain cruel. Overall, I think I did OK.

TUESDAY - AUGUST 6, 2019 - P90X3 - Agility X
Not a fan of this one. I don't like any of the moves, and don't feel like I'm accomplishing anything. Any more where I have jump up and change direction in the air is almost impossible for me because I can't land properly and keep my balance, so I have to half ass it. Moves where he's constantly yelling to change direction every three seconds is just silly to me, so I half ass those too. I even gave up after 10 or 15 seconds on the one where you're moving left, right, cross, etc.I just didn't want to listen to him anymore, and what do push-ups have to do with agility? I'm a bit disappointed in myself, but that's how I've always felt about this workout.

WEDNESDAY - AUGUST 7, 2019 - P90X3 - The Challenge
My target numbers were 5 pullups and 25 pushups. No problems with the pushuops. A bit with thr pullups, as I was kipping a bit late. About half way through I was doing 6 pullups and 30 pushups. I usually go faster than they so on this workout and finish with about 10 minutes to go, but today I kept pace with them. There was a lot of standing around for me between moves, but I was just patient, and it was OK.

FRIDAY - AUGUST 9, 2019 - P90X3 - CVX
This went OK, but not great. There were a few times when I felt like my legs had a mind of their own and just refusing to move. I know it happened for a few seconds on the second set of Press Jacks, and also on another move near the end. I may have been able to push a little harder, but not much harder. A lot of it is a loss of balance if I go too fast.

SATURDAY - AUGUST 10, 2019 - P90X3 - The Warrior
From past experience, I knew I didn't like this one. However, I went into it with an open mind and just took it one move at a time. Some of these moves really wear you out, so it's tough to go 100% on all of them because you have more coming, and there is very little recovery time between the moves Overall, I think I did OK. Not great, but OK.

SUNDAY - AUGUST 11, 2019 - P90X3 - X3 Ab Ripper

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I haven't done 30 minutes workouts since I finished my last round of X3 in late 2017. I've promarily done the One on Ones, P90X, and P90X2 since then. Most of them were close to an hour each day, and had a lot of resistance workouts in them X3 doesn't, so I'm wondering if I'm going to keep getting the results. I didn't like most of the workouts I did this week, but I'm going to work hard and trust the process.
Back at it after three weeks off. I wasn't feeling too well today, so I almost took this week off too, but decided I should get back into it, so I put the DVD in. I'm starting at 170.2 lbs and 15.6% body fat, which is a little down from when I finished the One On One's three weeks ago.

Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 173; Avg Heart Rate: 99.
FRIDAY - AUGUST 9, 2019 - P90X3 - CVX
This went OK, but not great. There were a few times when I felt like my legs had a mind of their own and just refusing to move. I know it happened for a few seconds on the second set of Press Jacks, and also on another move near the end. I may have been able to push a little harder, but not much harder. A lot of it is a loss of balance if I go too fast.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 241; Avg Heart Rate: 116.
SATURDAY - AUGUST 10, 2019 - P90X3 - The Warrior
From past experience, I knew I didn't like this one. However, I went into it with an open mind and just took it one move at a time. Some of these moves really wear you out, so it's tough to go 100% on all of them because you have more coming, and there is very little recovery time between the moves Overall, I think I did OK. Not great, but OK.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 240; Avg Heart Rate: 116.
SUNDAY - AUGUST 11, 2019 - P90X3 - X3 Ab Ripper
I did OK. The only move I really struggled with was the Dolphin Hops. I never went to my knees, but I wan't bringing them in too far on the hops. I fell a few times on the Side Arm Balance thingys, but got through them.
Time: 15 minutes; Calories Burned: 102; Avg Heart Rate: 106.
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 170.8 (+0.6 lbs)

Still not eating great. Drinking way too much Diet Pepsi still.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I haven't done 30 minutes workouts since I finished my last round of X3 in late 2017. I've promarily done the One on Ones, P90X, and P90X2 since then. Most of them were close to an hour each day, and had a lot of resistance workouts in them X3 doesn't, so I'm wondering if I'm going to keep getting the results. I didn't like most of the workouts I did this week, but I'm going to work hard and trust the process.
