Finished week six of P90X3. Week SIX! Already. That is fairly unbelievable to me. And the word of the week is sore. More so than any other week so far *sigh* I thought I was doing so well -- Tuesday I completed all of the Warrior with no modifications or exhaustion. Sweet. Yoga/Pilates day got moved to the weekend so that I wouldn't have to move all my gear to Paris (the joys of living in two homes). MMX was still entertaining the second time around, although far less overwhelming this time as I had some idea what was going to happen. But the Thurs/Fri combo of Incinerator and CVX just toasted me entirely. Fri night woke up in the middle of the night with back, shoulders and quads screaming at me. I suppose I should be glad that's only the second time that's happened since starting this program, but I definitely was not so amused last night. And today (Sat) I've been dragging all day.
I can do almost all the exercises in this week's videos -- the only ones I can't are the pull ups and chin ups. Chin ups, on a good day I can get about half way. hahhaha if I can do one chin up by the end of this, I'll be pretty stoked ;) And as for pull ups? Yeah, they're more of a hang and swing activity at the moment. We shall see. The rest though I can manage to some degree, and I do like the days that include the weights -- way more interesting.
So far though, I've been able to check off every single day. Some days it's more of a challenge than others for sure, but I've at least shown up. The fact that it's only half an hour is actually fairly motivating -- I can't justify spending that time on Facebook if I haven't at least made an effort to exercise and I don't need to go anywhere to do it. Half an hour before dinner or before opening my kobo or whatever -- it's doable. Some days harder than others certainly, but doable.
Have to admit, I'm looking forward to rest day tomorrow ;)
