I have two more weeks to go and my second time through P90x will be completed.  Here is what I did for workouts and a few examples of how they were.

9-21

Chest, shoulders and Triceps

This workout is probably my second favorite because it gives you the best upper body workout.  I wont be able to explain every exercise in detail so click above for that but all I can say is lots of push ups.  Make sure you have a recovery drink after and a protein shake for lunch. Don’t forget Ab Ripper X.

Plyometrics

I used to dislike this one cause there was lots of jumping but now I use it as a way to entertain my daughter.  In this workout you do an exercise called jump knee tuck.  Its the hardest thing I have ever done.  Try jumping in place but the object is to hit your hands with the top of your knees.  Its super difficult but you sweat like hell.

Chest and Back- I can’t tell you enough how much I love this workout.  Today I had a lot on my mind.  Tomorrow my wife is one week over due with our second and the anticipation is killing me.  I still managed to do Ab Ripper and the huge amounts of pull ups and push ups.

9-15

Plyometrics-I had to change this workout from morning to after work.  There is so much jumping that I wake up my wife when I do this workout.  I really dislike Rock start hops for some reason but the sports bonus is kick a$$.  You fake throw a baseball 20 times, fake throw a jump shot 20 times and you fake jump tires like a football player does in practice.  Cheesy but effective. We also found out that they are inducing on Friday!  Oh Yeah

9-16

Shoulder and Arms-I now can focus on working out again as the scheduling is now in place for Friday.  This workout is a great way to distress.  Lots of lifting so make sure you have plenty of different dumbbells laying around. Don’t forget your Abs.  AB Ripper X for 15 minutes

9-17

Yoga X-This
