Long long day and a late night yoga session for me. Well maybe not so late, but late enough for me as I am usually not starting my workout at 8:00 p.m.
It was a pretty good run through and felt good after sitting in the car and at my desk all day. All in all yoga is a good end of day routine. Even though I worked hard and got a decent sweat going, afterward I was very relaxed and felt great getting back in the car and driving up to OC.

Day 39...SHOULDERS AND ARMS AND BALANCE
Fun and quick moving workout...basically standard bi,Tri, and shoulder exercises on one foot or balancing in some other sort of fashion.
Big difference from Mondays difficult routine in the fact that I could actually do the workout without stumbling around like a kookmeyer.
I didn't have time to AbRipper so that's in the bank.

Day 37...PLYOCIDE
This was round 5 of Plyocide for me and I have to say that I really like this one. It is likely my strong suit at this point and that very well be because I have multiple attempts at it by now.
I cannot keep up with the DvD quite yet, but I am at around 70% already which is acceptable to me for now.
I am anticipating a 100% turnout before the end of Phase 2.
Brace yourself...shoot...brace MYself.

Day 36...CHEST BACK & BALANCE
Well I made it to Phase 2. After spending 4 weeks in phase 1, Brando and I made the transition today. Personally, I felt like I could keep at phase 1 for another month or two as that is how novice I still feel about it. But onwards and upwards!
Initial thoughts:
The push-up and pull-up alternation is good. I like it.
The moves are HARD. lots of balancing for the push ups and lots of core engagement and impossible holds for the pull ups.
This is a challenging workout hands down.
Four ball push ups...lol...it took me a couple minutes just to be able to get into the position...Tony and the kids moved on to the next exercise by the time I finally got myself balanced. That was frustrating and probley my low point in the workout.
AbRipper X2 style...I can see this one improving now. After the beat down I took in the workout, it was encouraging to see better performance here.
Plyocide mañana amigos.

Day 35...REST
Day off. Day before Phase 2. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.
I do feel like my body has done some recovering. Groin already feels a whole lot better, my neck/shoulder is still not perfect, but is improved, and I am itching for some resistance style workouts.

Weigh-in: 196.0

Day 34...KENPO
What? Kenpo? Yep...I decided to mix up the week a little more. Hey, Tony says that you can vary your recovery weeks however you see fit. So I threw in a little P90X classic Kenpo.
My groin pull made some of the moving around tough, but I made it through and it felt good to have a little cardio going.
Noticing a lot of weight fluctuating but it seems to be gravitating towards the 197 mark...

This Yoga routine is continuing to grow on me. I noticed an improvement between today and earlier this week already. The one thing I want to note is that I over stretched my groin during the splits section. Won't do that again. Ouch.

Day 32...REST
I took an outright rest day today. Other than my typical light stretching I left my body alone. My knee is my primary concern now as my neck/shoulder is slowly on the mend and I am noticing it less each day.
Few more days until it's back to hitting it hard.
Stay healthy.

Day 31...RECOVERY AND MOBILITY
A little stretching...a little foam rolling...just what the body needs.
Do I feel more normal after a few days off of resistance training? Yes. I still am sore in my hamstrings from yoga the other day, my neck/shoulder seems to be feeling a little better, but my knee is still off.
My main hope is that by the start of Phase 2 Monday, my neck and shoulder issue is a thing of the past.

Day 30...YOGA
After several rounds of this yoga routine, I can say I like it better than P90X classic yoga. While there are some similar aspects, X2 Yoga moves a bit quicker, establishes a sweat a bit sooner, and I think for the most part is a more intense and efficient routine. Not as long, but definitely harder.
I notice I put a lot of strain on the outside of my right knee during pigeon. I will have to back it off next time as I am not sure that is the right thing to be doing given the pain I feel in it.
Some cool balance poses I am improving on and hope to get down pretty solid by the end of the program.

Day 27...BALANCE AND POWER
This is up there as one of my least favorite...not sure if I have made that clear yet. I blame a lack of coordination and core strength.
I can say however, that today was a nice improvement over last week. Not a huge improvement, but nevertheless an improvement...so I'll take it!
The bonus round on this one is a mother. Definitely where the money is.
So I am closing up week four of phase one here. Next week will be full of recovery and mobility and hopefully my body is able to mend before phase 2 kicks into high gear. Still experiencing pain and discomfort in my neck and left shoulder, as well as the outside portion of my right knee.

Day 25...TOTAL BODY AND ABRIPPER
Today was brutal. One would think that by week number 4 things would be getting easier. It's not exactly working out that way. Last week I do not remember feeling the way I did today after round 1. I was done. Had enough. Felt like I put in a full workout.
But I had to do it all over again...more Boing push-ups, half chair deep swimmer curls, warrior three kickbacks, mule kick burpees...AHHhH!!!!
And of course after persevering through another round (which by the way was done well) I had X2 AbRipper to look forward to. Awesome. Well, I had to take a break in-between the two and get my wits about me before rolling into AbRipper. This allowed me to make a good go at this routine which has been slow to grow on me.
It's amazing how incredibly exhausting these workouts are. I understand why there are two Recovery/Mobility days each week. The body needs it!

Day 24...RECOVERY AND MOBILITY
Early morning recovery and mobility session felt great today. The outside of my right knee has been a little tender/achey lately and I am not sure what the issue is. Feels good to stretch it out but only to a point. The pigeon is a little too strenuous on it.
Foam rolling today was especially brutal on the inside of my thighs. I felt like I could lay on each of them for hours and still not get the release. No pain no gain so at least I know I got some gain!

Day 23...PLYOCIDE
This is a routine I am able to feel good about. Not because it is easy. No,no,no...not at all. I just have better coordination and ability to do these types of moves without flailing about.
I would say I am operating at about 75% the level of the kids on this routine. Not bad really. This is a pretty intense workout which i have just recently been introduced unto the likes of. According to Brando, this is very INSANITY-like.
Good stuff!

Day 22...X2 CORE
Beginning of week 4...
I still am feeling like a novice. I have some numbers improvements and that's all fine and good but I just feel so remedial doing some of these exercises. I don't mean the exercises are remedial, I mean that I am...as in how I am doing the exercises. My balance is shake city, and I think my form suffers as a result because I am flailing. It's like day one for me and I am not kidding.
Supposed to be transitioning to phase two after this week but I am not feeling confidant.

Day 8...X2 CORE
Week two, so you would think that I know what to expect now. Not so much.
It might as well been day 1 because I barely remembered ANY of the exercises. To be fair to me, the names of the exercises are all pretty long and complicated and new inventions as far as I am concerned. Burpee plank one legged 3 point roll up or something or other may roll of the tongue nicely, but takes some comprehending which can take a while.
This is a good workout. At the end Tony remarks to the kids, "it creeps up on ya, don't it?". It really does, and the sweat gets dripping like crazy.
My numbers were a little off from last week and I am not sure if that is because I was being more careful about form this time, or if I dropped off a little. I will be interested to see how my body performs next week and if there is a noticeable and measurable improvement.
Here is a little post super bowl fun fact....
Mid-morning weigh-in: 205.4 !!!!!
Dang. That ain't new muscle either.

There is the option of the RECOVERY AND MOBILITY routine today or REST. I am typically going to do the RECOVERY AND MOBILITY exercise unless otherwise prohibited by something such as, oh, say...Super Bowl Sunday.
This will be cheat day of cheat days during this X2 journey.
Great Super Bowl party with Chili cook off AND Wing cook off!
No weigh-in today folks...but tomorrow will be ugly!

Day 6...BALANCE & POWER
Early workout today.
Challenging workout today.
Who knew I was so out of whack balance-wise? As I rolled through this workout, I was really noticing the "core" aspect in this routine. It seemed like everything had me engaging my core as much as anything else...and it works you!
More or less I was moving through the workout at a slightly above novice pace. However once I reached the "BONUS" round I got the X2 smack down! Here is where the men and the boys diverge. Even so, the last move was an insane core move (of course,right) that is M-O-N-E-Y!
I am being asked what my favorite day is so far and I can't really say at this point. I think after another week I may have an idea because at the moment I don't really know what the hell I even did each day!
With X2, there really isn't anything as simple a just a push up anymore.
Meal plan is going great. Still enjoy it and it is definitely effective.

Day 5...X2 YOGA
Well I have some catching up to do in the blog posting department...while I had the time to get my workouts in, I most definitely didn't have the time to post.
So X2 YOGA!
Given that P90X Yoga is the only Yoga routine I have ever done, of course this X2 routine is a different experience.
Not holding the moves for as long a duration, not building up from beginning to end, not 90 minutes long. X2 starts out a little similar with the Astunga Sun Salutations and then it get gets moving throwing in warrior 3 and half moon and and all the more difficult poses right away instead of at the end like P90X.
Oh and guess what else? A nice little bout of Abdominal exercises not so much like Yoga Belly 7, but it's there.
I have my eyes set on getting some of the tricky new poses down real soon. I am hoping my learning curve is steep on this bad boy!

Day 4...TOTAL BODY
I think we just switched gears.
This full body workout is no joke. Destabilizing familiar lifts and exercises and integrating balance into them makes all the difference in the world. A little frustrating at times at this point, this workout nevertheless is going to end up a favorite I have a feeling. "Boing Push-ups" and "Crunchy Level Pull-ups"... I mean who thinks of these crazy things?
I felt pretty good after round 1, but I tell you...round 2 smacked me down! My balance and stability suffered big time due to the increasing fatigue my body was experiencing at that point.
Muscles are thoroughly confused. No doubt about that.
How about X2 AbRipper? Tornados and Phelan Twist? Talk about back to the drawing board!!
Meal plan is on point...I'm down 6 lbs from day 1! How is that??

Day 3...RECOVERY AND MOBILITY
I thought iwas going to be sore beyond belief in my legs after the Plyo workout Tuesday. However, I was not really sore at all. I could feel my muscles but that was about it.
Recovery and Mobility! Wow. I never thought stretching would be so painfull! This routine begins in a familiar way with some Sun Salutations (think P90X StretchX). Still a great way to get the blood moving.
After that it was all fresh. The leg swings felt awesome and everything was going well until i got to the 20 minute foam roller section. Ugh!! Talk about feeling it...this was just insane on the muscles! Calves, quads, hamstrings, IT bands, triceps, back, lays, chest...it all was screaming! It was nauseating at times but Tony says, "the more it hurts, the more you need it". He hasn't been wrong yet, so I continue to listen. I definitely accomplished something here. If the saying "no pain, no gain" is true in the slightest...I gained the hell out of something this workout.
Yesterday I mentioned I was on the meal plan and doing the fat shredder level 3 or C (it's level C on X2). Basically this means I am on a high protein diet of about 3000 calories a day. It's been good so far and I have been coming up with some pretty decent meals.
Thursday is a big workout I have a feeling...AbRipper is back? Oh boy.

Day 2...PLYOCIDE
Yes...death by jumping.
Not like P90X Plyo in the slightest. The intensity ante has been raised.
Here is the straight talk:
I am able to hammer P90X Plyo to the floor. No problem. Of course I have repeated that routine a multitude of times and have completely committed it to memory, and know my strengths and weaknesses and can adjust accordingly throughout the workout in order to keep bringing it the whole time.
Plyocide keeps a totally different pace, contains more athletic and coordination required moves, and nearly collapsed me a couple times. I have never experienced the level of fatigue and burn in my legs as I did this morning. Don't get me wrong, I have felt some serious burn and fatigue in my legs during my P90X outings. The difference is that the intervals and intensity level demanded drains you before your body can recover much at all.
I pushed as far as I could while still keeping my form and technique in mind. Balancing during certain moves was a challenge. Certain moves went slower as I had to really concentrate on my form. Even some of the stretch moves were a little confusing and challenging.
This workout was definitely a new experience for me. I have never worked out quite like this, and I think this is really my first introduction to interval type training.
I look forward to the week after week improvements that I made on the original P90X Plyo. That journey gives me a great positive outlook for Plyocide.
It should be noted now that I am utilizing the X2 meal plan. I am doing fat shredder level 3 for the first phase.
I'm going all in for this X2 saga.

Day 1...X2 CORE
January 30, 2012
Finally. Day one of P90X2. The new workout program designed by Tony Horton, the creator of the all popular, world famous, often imitated but never replicated P90X workout.
After several bouts of the original P90X workout, I was ready for a brand new bag. X2 would be just that bag. Finally available December 2011, my X2 arrived during my third phase of the original P90X workout. The plan was to finish the original and then start up X2 on Monday 1/30/2012 with my big brousin Brando. Well...today is that day.
Apprehensive, excited, curious, and injured. That is how I rolled into day numero uno. Yes, I somehow strained my neck just three days prior to departing on the S.S. X2.
But it is going to take a lot more than a stiff neck to keep this kid from going on this trip. My bags were packed, I had my passport in hand, and that was that.
I pressed play at 7:30 a.m.
Immediately, the different faces and warm up reminded me I was in strange waters. I didn't have too much time to think about it though. Since everything was new, I had to learn everything before I could do it....and these were some complicated exercises! I quickly found myself out of my comfort zone. The only familiarity I could latch on to was Tony's coaching and chatter. God Bless Tony.
Focusing so closely on the new routine I found the time went by very quick! Without even thinking of it, I discovered I was sweaty and breathing hard. With all the medicine balls and stability balls, and balancing, and foam rolling I ended up feeling fully worked out and also fully aware that I am starting from square one.
