OK, I typed my entire workout with explanations and weights out and lost the internet:mad:
This morning I did P90X2 Total Body, followed by ab ripper x 2 79 min, 359 calories. I followed this on the treadmill 29 min, 2.25 miles, hills, jogging, and 5 sprints, 182 calories. Total time was 1 hr 45 min, calories burned 541.
Total Body Is 2 rounds that are the same but some moves switch sides since you are doing a lot of weight work balancing
Round 1
1 arm chest press on ball 12 reps 20# right 12 reps 20# left
2 4 position pull up 14 reps I did this with a bar across my knee raise dip station since I do not have a door that I can safely put my pull up bar on.
3 push up side arm balance on two med balls 14 reps
4 switch lunge press right side only forward lunge press rear lunge arnold press 16 reps 15# dumbbells
5 warrior 3 kickback on right leg 10 reps 12 # dumbbells
6 warrior 3 curl on left leg 10 reps 15# dumbbells
7 boing push ups this is with a stability ball and you bring your body up with the ball, hard to explain. I used my bosy stability ball with sand:eek: 12 reps
8 crunchy lever pull ups 20 reps I tried this with the bar on the tower and on the bowflex like the guy with the tubing option does
9 mule kick burpee 6 reps This is a burpee with both feet kicking up behind then two push ups in spiderman fashion then back up
10 swimmers curl press in half chair on 1 leg 12 reps 15# dumbbells
11 balance kickback on stability ball 12 reps 12#
12 rocket launcher preacher curl right only 16 reps 15# dumbbells
Round 2 13-24 repeat first round only working the opposite side
 
Today was P90X2 Yoga, 67 min, 191 calories. I really needed this. I think every muscle in my body is sore. I also did URX-MT Keli ROberts Maximum Metabolic Intervals before the yoga, 49 min, 327 calories. The do say in the X2 manual that because of the demands of the workouts they do not add cardio. Some of the workouts like plyocide get you HR up anyway.

Roselyn, I am still previewing and I think I will enjoy this rotation. They give options of 3-6 weeks each phase. Also the recovery time length is up to the individuals needs. They say thy just list it at a week. Each phase is different. I am on the foundation phase.

Total time was 93 minutes and calories 440. I had some greek yogurt with whey this morning and put chicken in the slow cooker. I had to run errands so when I came back I made the chicken enchilada soup from the X2 book. It is pretty good. I needed cubed chicken so I thought that would give me enough chicken for more than one meal:D

The one on one workout was non weighted lower body balance work. I am so much better at balancing on one side than the other. My legs were getting tired. They already have some soreness in them.
 
Today was cardio and I chose Cardio Coach #2. This workout is kind of boring, I should have done CC #2 revised, that one is a bit more fun. Anyways, I had an ok workout. Woke up with TTOM headache and almost went back to bed. But I muddled through and got it done.

CARDIO STATS:
40 minutes total
9 minutes below zone
24 minutes in zone
9 minutes above zone
306 calories burned
2 miles traveled


Did we lose Teddygirl again???
 
This mornings workout was Turbo Fire fire 30, 32 min, 273 calories, max hr 163, I then did 1.25 miles, 16 min on the treadmill, while previewing the first strength workout in P90X2. Calories burned was 118. I then did P90X2 Recovery and Mobility, 56 min, 182 calories. Total time spent was 1 hr 44 min.. Cardio time was 48 min and calories burned for cardio total was 401. With the recovery work it is 583. There is not a lot of movement in the recovery dvd other than the leg swings, squat presses and lunge twists with the bar. This recovery work feels so good. I like the format, yoga w/u, mobility stuff, 20 min foam rolling hitting everything, mobility to see how much looser you are, yoga and stretching ending with foam roller angel.

Debbie nice work on the cardio today:)

Roselyn, I am glad it was a good workout. At least I would guess ouch means good? :)

Debbie, nice workout. You got in some good weight increments.
