Today was
P90X Legs & Back. Had an excellent workout. I ate quite a bit yesterday, but I didn't really over do it. I had lots of energy this morning and I don't feel bloated at all. I guess that's good. Could have been worse.
This week I went deeper with all the lunges, used weights in an exercise that I did last week and had great numbers for all the chins and pullups. I am really happy with this workout!
This is how it went:
Balance Lunge (BSS) - 12's/25 reps each side
Calf-Raise Squats - 15's/25 reps
Reverse Grip Chinups - 12 unassisted, 5 assisted
Super Skaters - 25 each side (this time the leg that was off the floor never touched the floor unless I lost my balance.)
Wall Squats - an eternity at high and low levels, did these on the stability ball
Wide Front Pullups - 2 unassisted, 10 Assisted
Step Back Lunges - 12's/15 reps each side
Alternate Side Lunges - 10's/24 reps alternating
Close Grip Overhand Pullups - 5 unassisted, 7 assisted
Single Leg Wall Squats - 1 minute total, 10 second holds each side alternating, used stability ball
Deadlift Squats - 20/side (again, didn't touch the floor unless I lost my balance)
Switch Grip Pullups - 12 total, 6 sets reversing grip, all unassisted
1 minute break
Three-Way Lunge w/kick - 5 each side going side, 45 degree, front
Sneaky Lunges - 20 each side
Reverse Grip Chinups - 7 & 4 unassisted (Last week I used bands)
Chair Salutations - 2 - 30 second chair poses (burned like a mother)
Toe-Roll Iso Lunges - 8's/20 each side (last week I didn't use a weight)
Wide Front Pullups - 5 unassisted, 5 assisted
Groucho Walk - 4 up, 4 back for 45 seconds
Calf Raises - 20's/did 15 reps slow, 10 reps fast with feet turned out, front and in. Should have went heavier
Close Grip Overhand Pullups - 15 reps/used bands with all 3 tensions, this was tough)
80-20 Sieber Speed Squats - 30 a side (I liked these)
Switch Grip Pullups - 11 sets w/band using all tube tensions.
Loved this workout.
Then I did the
Ab work from Step, Jump & Pump. Got abs in twice this week!
Linda - This rotation is longer the 12 weeks? I thought it was only 12 weeks long. I won't do the Yoga X workout the entire rotation, either. Change is good, Tony keeps saying that. LOL!
Thanks for the kitty stories. THey are FINALLY getting along. This morning they have been chasing each other around and can be near each other without hissing. I'm happy. Hopefully this will continue and they be best buddies.
Hi to all! Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
