Very brief update here. Today marks the official end of Week 1 of P90x. Why I started on a Wednesday last week now seems to make very little sense, but oh well. Anyway, today I was "allowed" to either take a full break or instead do the Stretch X session. I've been extremely sore/tight the past 2 days, so I figured I might as well try out the latter.
Basically, the Stretch tape is like a shorter, more relaxed version of Yoga. And quite soothing as a matter of fact. Just what the doctor ordered. For those of you interested in giving the program a shot, I recommend taking advantage of this stretch day rather than just not doing anything!
Well, since it would be a bit redundant for me to continue writing updates for all the same exercises next week, I think instead I'll wait till the following week to pick these back up....that way I can give a bit of an update on how much I've (presumably) improved.
Till then! Tomorrow we're going back to Chest & Back (*shudders at memory of it*). This made me throw up the first time I did it.
In early 2009 I completed Tony Horton's P90X for the very first time and got in the best shape of my life. Since then (although I am NOT a Beachbody Coach) I've done P90X 3x total as well as other Beachbody programs like Chalean Extreme, 10 Minute Trainer, Insanity, and now I'm starting P90X-2 with my wife, Katie. Being healthy is a lifestyle choice, and I'm doing my best to make it mine. My hope is that those reading will benefit from hearing about the new programs, etc., I try!
