P90X2 Recipe Fish Tacos

I made this recipe last night and I give it a rating = 9

For me I guess it was so clean I only had one but added some chips all natural and salsa from Harry and Davids, yum.

This was only about 30 minute from start to finish.....that I loved.

Cals = 220 Fat = 4 Protein = 28g (not counting chips and salsa)

I have posted the rest of the moves and will be starting the full program next month. For now I am finishing my Yoga workouts and am going to my first HOT Yoga session Saturday!
100 degrees, and 26 poses, I am so in....say bye bye to toxins!

Have a super weekend, tax time for T.

...........and checking out a new gym = Xist Fitness.

P90X2 ALL Workout Moves = 16 Workouts

P90X2 all workouts + 2 bonus+ 2 One on One with Tony = 16

I have previewed 14 Discs. Plus 2 more the one-on-one with Tony Horton new 4 Legs and Upper Body Balance = 16 total new workouts.

Some moves like Frog and others are in this program but some like the "Draya roll" gets a medicine ball added to it or something to make it more difficult.

1. Warm ups are the same in each (is this a copy cat of 90 Supreme?)
2. Lots of balance and Yoga style moves
3. Each warm up is about 8 minutes cool down 6 minutes = 14 out of 60 minute workout (each workout is 1hr so far)

(Uses roller) Warm up moves:
Worlds greatest stretch
Inch worm - walk down pushup with out the pushup
Scorpion - laying on stomach with one leg reaching out to the side bent up scorpion style (Yogis like Yoga down dog with a dropped over leg)
Groiners - open hip move like windshield wipers in Yoga, or dropping in one knee then the other

Tough moves are:
Warrior 3 cross crunch

3 Ball extravaganza

First 5 Workouts:

1. Core X2 - Lots of walk downs and stretches, planks and again Yoga core moves and using stability ball

2. Plyocide - Jumps but not as many as I thought (see 2 x Balance +Power)

3. X2 Recovery and Mobility (use the foam roller here) with stretch Yoga style moves
