MONDAY - APRIL 27, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Recovery 4 Results

Even though this is a supposed " recovery" workout, you can push yourself a bit and still stay a bit mellow. I did that today and it worked out great.

TUESDAY - APRIL 28, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Bun Shaper

WEDNESDAY - APRIL 29, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Diamond Delts

Short, concise workout. I went a bit faster than he did and finished up about a set ahead of him. All went well and I feel I got a good workout in.

FRIDAY - MAY 1, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Mammoth UML

SATURDAY - MAY 2, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Med Ball Core Cardio

SUNDAY - MAY 3, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Killer Abs

WEEK OF APRIL 20, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 9 - WEEK 3

MONDAY - APRIL 20, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 30/15

32 pushups. 16 Band Pulldowns. Went well. I feel good.

Start Time: 7:25 pm; Workout Time: 58 minutes; Calories Burned: 297; Avg Heart Rate: 101. 


TUESDAY - APRIL 21, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Plyo Legs

The more I di the more I realize this thing is really a beast, and I don't even go full range of motion. On most moves I don't touch the floor because if I did I'd lose my balance an only get in six reps instead of twenty or thirty. I usually just reach towards the floor. I do what I can do. All the respect in the world for this workout.

Start Time: 7:00 pm; Workout Time: 63 minutes; Calories Burned: 338; Avg Heart Rate: 103. 


WEDNESDAY - APRIL 22, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Just Arms

This was just a straight on old school, no frills workout, and I came through it OK. I used 30's on the Bicep Curls, and I might be ready to try 35's. I used 25's on a few of the tricep moves, and used 20's on a most of the moves near in the bonus round. Unspectacular, but steady and effective. 

Start Time: 7:05 pm; Workout Time: 46 minutes; Calories Burned: 269; Avg Heart Rate: 107.


THURSDAY - APRIL 23, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Fountain of Youth Yoga

Footwear situation. I tried ankle socks covered by calf length sticky socks. They twisted a bit, but it seems like a step in the right direction. I wasn't slipping all over the mat and was able to hold my balance a bit better.

Start Time: 7:10 pm; Workout Time: 47 minutes; Calories Burned: 219; Avg Heart Rate: 99. 


FRIDAY - APRIL 24, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Road Warrior

This used to be a throw away workout where I didn't get much out of it because I was constantly experimenting with which band to use and where to step on the band for proper resistance. Today I used the old Beachbody bands. Yellow for the heavier loads and Maroon for when I needed more latitude in the stretch. I got my foot placement more consistent for each move. This worked out great, and I felt like I got a really wood workout in. 

Start Time: 8:30 pm; Workout Time: 53 minutes; Calories Burned: 360; Avg Heart Rate: 112. 


SATURDAY - APRIL 25, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Super Cardio

Nothing major here. I got through it. I modified two moves, the side twisty lunges and the 180 jumps. I lose my balance on both, so I replaced them with Low to High Twists and Soccer Drills respectively.  

Start Time: 8:00 pm; Workout Time: 46 minutes; Calories Burned: 218; Avg Heart Rate: 94.


SUNDAY - APRIL 26, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Killer Abs

Once again, I did this from the worksheets instead of the video, and did the tougher moves first. It went OK.

Start Time: 8:45 pm; Workout Time: 20 minutes; Calories Burned: 97; Avg Heart Rate: 97.


SUNDAY WEIGH IN

Weight: 171.2 (+2.2 lbs)
Body Fat: 16.2% (+0.6%)



THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK

I'm obviously a bit surprised at the weight and body fat gains, but I did have a few donuts mid week that I haven't had in a long time. Maybe that was it. I'll just keep an eye on it. I don't anticipate repeating the donut thing. I thought the workouts themselves went very well.

WEEK OF APRIL 13, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 9 - WEEK 2

MONDAY - APRIL 13, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Recovery 4 Results

I was a bit sore and tired, so this was a good one for me today.

Start Time: 6:10 pm; Workout Time: 38 minutes; Calories Burned: 215; Avg Heart Rate: 105.  


TUESDAY - APRIL 14, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Bun Shaper

This one had my legs shaking, especially during and after the Eight Card Pickups, which are brutal. I actually paused the workout twice, just to let my legs calm down a bit. That usually doesn't happen, but I guess the intensity is a good thing.

Start Time: 7:30 pm; Workout Time: 49 minutes; Calories Burned: 316; Avg Heart Rate: 110.


WEDNESDAY - APRIL 15, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Diamond Delts

I'm glad this is a bit of a shorter workout. I didn't really struggle too much, but those Y-Press things can get a little tough. I used 20's on those, but I really tired near the end of each of those two sets. Overall, it was a quicker, efficient workout. Works for me.

Start Time: 7:40 pm; Workout Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 212; Avg Heart Rate: 105.


THURSDAY - APRIL 16, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Fountain of Youth Yoga

Certainly much better than last week. My flexibility was better and my balance might have been also

Start Time: 8:15 pm; Workout Time: 47 minutes; Calories Burned: 199; Avg Heart Rate: 96.


FRIDAY - APRIL 17, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Mammoth UML

I just took it one move at a time. Struggled with my balance a bit on some of the "lower" moves, but other than that it was OK. I modified a few moves at the end. I did 60 Wide Pushups instead of the Plyo Skippers, and did Mary Katherine Lunges the best I could instead of the Jump Knee Tucks. I can't jump.

Start Time: 7:35 pm; Workout Time: 55 minutes; Calories Burned: 322; Avg Heart Rate: 106.


SATURDAY - APRIL 18, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Medicine Ball Core Cardio

This shouldn't be difficult, but it is for me because of my lack of balance. Cardio wise it got to me also.

Start Time: 4:40 pm; Workout Time: 36 minutes; Calories Burned: 217; Avg Heart Rate: 104.


SUNDAY - APRIL 19, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Killer Abs

I did this without the video while I was watching TV, and I did the harder moves first to get them out of the way. It worked out OK.

Start Time: 7:30 pm; Workout Time: 20 minutes; Calories Burned: 89; Avg Heart Rate: 95.



SUNDAY WEIGH IN

Weight: 168.0 (-1.0 lb)

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK

I got through the week OK with the workouts, and as I type this I am making a long overdue commitment to eat better, and I'm actually excited about it.

WEEK of APRIL 6, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - ROUND 9 - WEEK 1

MONDAY - APRIL 6, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - 30/15

It's been four weeks off. I'll admit I'm not bouncing back as fast as I used to. Mentally, I probably could have taken a few weeks off, but I've been feeling a bit physically "blah" so I forced myself to get back into it. I wasn't even sure which program I was going to do until just before I started. I was considering PowerSynch60, but looked through the workouts and realized I didn't really enjoy the workouts as much as the One On Ones. It's become my go-to program. Some other programs are shorter, but I feel like I get good results here, and for the most part, feel the extra time is worth it.

So, we start with 30/15. Chest and Back. Back to the first P90Xworkout. My numbers were 32 pushups and 16 Band Pulldowns, which I do instead of Pullups now. I've just lost the ability to physically do a pullup anymore, and the Pulldowns do make me feel it in my back a bit. Overall, it was a solid workout today. I even did a small Bonus set of 16 pushups and 8 Pulldowns to get me to 400 Pullups and 200 Pulldowns.

Start Time: 6:45 pm; Workout Time: 58 minutes; Calories Burned: 337; Avg Heart Rate: 105.  


TUESDAY - APRIL 7, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Plyo Legs

Plyo is tough for me anymore because of my lack of balance. I didn't go fast today, nor did I go very low (touching the floor) on many moves because of the balance issue, but I got a decent workout in and am pretty sure I'll be feeling it in the next few days.

Start Time: 5:55 pm; Workout Time: 63 minutes; Calories Burned: 369; Avg Heart Rate: 106.  


WEDNESDAY - APRIL 8, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Just Arms

I'm glad this was a shorter workout. I was thinking it was going to be an hour, but it was efficient. I don't think I shied away from too much. Twelve reps on most sets. There were a few moves where I wondered if I could have used a heavier weight, but think I played it smart. I did use 25's on a few of the tricep moves, where I'd used 20's the last few times I did it. I'm pleased with what I did.

Start Time: 6:45 pm; Workout Time: 46 minutes; Calories Burned: 298; Avg Heart Rate: 113.


THURSDAY - APRIL 9, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Fountain of Youth Yoga

Not real good. Flashes of never ending vinyasas crept in and it put me in a less that great mood. I wasn't too flexible and am still searching for the right footwear. Bare feet is out, as I can't have any cuts on my feet. All the socks I try either twist or slide down my feet when I'm in down dog. That is a lot of frustration right there. If I knew my footwear was sound I might be able to concentrate on the poses a bit more. I also feel like I've lost a lot of flexibility the last few years, and I have no balance because of the nerve damage in my feet. However, I'll keep trying. Totally giving up is really not an option.

Start Time: 7:15 pm; Workout Time: 47 minutes; Calories Burned: 194; Avg Heart Rate: 95.  


FRIDAY - APRIL 10, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Road Warrior

This is probably the best I've felt after doing this workout. I'm figuring out which band to use of each exercise and more importantly where to stand on it. It's still nor perfect, but certainly a lot better than when I first started.

Start Time: 7:05 pm; Workout Time: 53 minutes; Calories Burned: 361; Avg Heart Rate: 112.  


SATURDAY - APRIL 11, 2026 - TONY HORTON ONE ON ONE - Super Cardio

I wanted to do this in socks because I don't like wearing my workout shoes on my new hardwood floors. They just feel weird. I ended up putting on some shorter socks, then added a pair od knee high compression socks to give myself a little padding. I found out those were making me slide a bit, so I added another pair of sticky socks. The three layers and better traction seemed to work well. I've even try that combo next time yoga comes around to see if that combo works better on those workouts. With more confidence the workout seemed to go well. 

Start Time: 6:10 pm; Workout Time: 46 minutes; Calories Burned: 256; Avg Heart Rate: 101.



SUNDAY WEIGH IN

Weight: 169.0 (-1.2 lbs)
Body Fat: 15.6% (-0.8%)



THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK

One reason I like this program is because I know the workouts are going to be tough. I don't mind spending the time on harder workouts. I was sore most of the week, but I felt accomplished.
