HARD CORE FITNESS MANIACS FOR TUES FEB 15

Today was cardio and I chose P90X Kenpo-X. I'm shocked at my calorie burn, this one never gets my HR up that much. I think I topped out at 140 bpm and that's not high at all.

It was an ok workout, Tony was getting on my nerves this morning. His chatter is annoying. And I always thought that the warmup - which is close to 12 minutes long, should be the cool down. Such great stretches and really, those should be at the end.

HR STATS:
1 hr total
17 minutes below zone
30 minutes in zone
15 minutes above zone
423 calories burned


Roselyn - Did you get your chocolate covered strawberry??

The Squat Rack workouts are used in place of Meso 3's leg workouts. I loved the Squat Rack workout. If you do the ones that are in Meso 3, you do leg exercises combined with intervals of cardio. The Squat Rack workout is just heavy lifting. And it's fun!
 
This mornings workout was Jari Love's Extremely Ripped Boot Camp w/up and rnd 4 shoulder push up, lunge to the ground shoulder press, speed skater with a hop 17 min 101 calories. I followed this with Slow and Heavy Shoulders 30 min 123 calories, then did Jari's Bootcamp Abs 13 min 58 calories(this is actually the first part of each round so I ended up repeating the shoulder push ups again). Next I did Shock Cardio Athletic Step 47 min 352 calories, max hr 153, ending with Flexible Warrior Athletic Yoga Swim segment 10 min 29 calories(this is always a good one for shoulder stretches) Total time was 1 hr 57 min and calories burned 663.

Debbie, before I purchased some workouts with shorter segments I used the yoga based warm up on P90X CardioX because it was about 10 minutes. I like Kempo + a lot better than the original KempoX. I think it is a lot more fun and I get my HR up pretty well with it.

Teddy, I have done Mesocycle 3 both ways. I really enjoyed the Squat Rack workout. I was able to get some pretty heavy weights in. I don't have a squat rack but used my weighted vest and Bowflex to get the weights up.

Roselyn, nice workout. I keep thinking that I want to add that bonus leg workout on to something. I really like it.
 
Debbie – Thank you! I went to Cathe’s workout manager and printed out the STS squat rack rotation, I see :) I may use them now, the routines are crazy wonderful:p:p:rolleyes: I will still stay on course with STS workout until program is finished.

Add - on...........
Diane - Excellent idea I don’t have a rack I do have a 20 pound vest and plan to use it., doesn’t matter, just as long as I get the exercises in, there’re so many, gee.... with all the routines and my heaviest weight I am domed….
