Its Christmas Time!

Me at the office, this is the Christmas tree in my area. I love the silver and gold, so pretty!
My girlfriend Diane and I celebrated Christmas this weekend. She got a wonderful dessert for us, it was a cheesecake with strawberries on top. YUM!
It was from McCarthurs!

On another note, I finished Insanity!
Finally me and Shaun T. can part ways, it was fun while it lasted......a major sweat fest!

Now it is day 2 of P90X2.
So far, boring. I know it may be because Insanity was such fast pace but this one is more about balance and using a foam roller. (which I already do)

The warm up is the same each workout, not like P90X which was different each one. I'm sure its easier to piece it together that way but if you get bored easy like I do, you may not like it.
 
My warm up is 50 Jacks, then P90X2 warm up without rolling. I am not following the meal plan on this, I am doing the Clean Eat magazine recipes. So its Christmas time, are you ready for Santa?
 
I am :-)

P90X2 all workouts + 2 bonus = 14


P90X2 all workouts + 2 bonus = 14 I have previewed 14 Discs.

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
Single leg walk out to sphinx
Ball moves using 2 or 4 med balls to balance on
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

4. X2 Total Body and X2 Ab Ripper - Great overall workout

Level pull up = keep legs straight and out at an "L"

This workout is has many more balance moves then the original P90X and adds some great challenges that you can implement without all the toys. The meal plan and workout plan is less complicated, they really simplified it.

P90X2 Deluxe Ordered!


Last night after my workout I had the worst stomac ache *sigh.

I did not feel like eating at all. I don't know if it was the Energy strip I tried (only 1) since I am not used to doing those things for a workout or just a slight bug. My client brought me some salsa and Magic Pops and I had one of those, could it have been that?

Here is what they are if you never heard of them Magic Pops 15 cals each

I drank lots of water and had a few sugar free cookies since I had no crackers to try to soak up the gurgling.

Posted my pictures on the memory boxes I got now I have to put them all together and that should be sometime this week.

My workout was just the squats for the challenge but on a single step. I's so proud my client she did her first pull up! I was so proud, she worked it hard and fierce and was dripping in sweat...looooved it!

I pre-orderd the new P90X2 DELUXE (more toys lol) it ships in December, I can't wait.
