P90X Round 3 Lean Day 4 Core Synergistics


Hello Tony Horton......I'm back! and fully committed for another round of extreme fitness with you .

I was going to start Insanity August first, but have decided not do to this program due to my knees. I have only did 1 full week of Insanity, and its a great program if you can do a lot of jumping.


Since my surgery I had to take almost 3-4 weeks off extreme workouts and packed back on my body fat that I lost *sigh and feel I lost strength. Yup, back on my meal plan (my meal plan is written by a nutritionist/trainer in NY) which also should show major improvements.

I was rowing 75lb easily and doing glute press of 55lb now I have scaled back to 55lb and 45lbs until I can build back up to do 8-10 reps. For my home workouts I will be using 15lb - 25lb dumbbells.

So the good news is......that my arm feels much better and I am able to do pullups and pushups again. I have not done any heavy lateral lifts and will continue light until I have progressed enough being mindful of that injury.

What is the program I am going to do?

P90X Round 3 Lean. (First round was P90X Lean, then P90X Classic now P90X Lean)

I started last week and here is how my workouts will be for the next phase.

Monday - Off day (yoga, stretch, hula hooping, walking)
Tuesday through Friday - P90X Round 3 Lean
Saturday at the gym
Sunday at the gym

I'm super happy about this plan, and ready for big changes since I have 2 weeks till my reunion.
