Day 14

Cardio X- In a way it's like a sampler of the other Cardio workouts.. Plyometerics, Kenpo X, and Yoga X. With the addition of a few somewhat comical routines. I struggled with the Superman position, I would definatly like to get that down at some point. My heart rate got in the 140's and I generally stayed in the 130's.

After that since I allready had my shoes on, my heart monitor on, allready got a shirt all sweaty, and still had some energy.. decided to go for a little run.

Running- I only ran/jogged 1k, but got my heart rate up to 168.. which puts me in the "Optimal conditioning" or "Anaerobic Zone". Ideally, I should be in the "Aerobic Zone", occasionally crossing into the "Anaerobic Zone" to increase the funcitionality of my cardiovascular system.

Day 13

Kenpo X- I felt like I was giving alot of effort, though my knees felt a little off. My upper body moving strong throughout though. My heart never got in the 140's, but often times entering the break periods it was only in the 110's. Maybe its good because it's showing I can work hard with a low heart rate. Alot of the times I felt, I was giving more energy out then the people in video.

Day 12

Legs and Back- My left knee is definatly worse then my right. I'm not sure I can switch my hands for the "Switch grip pull-ups".... soon though.. soon.

Ab Ripper X- For "Fiffer Scissors"; I lay my arms under my back (to help support my spine), take alot of short breathes (like a woman giving birth), and sort of squeeze my buttocks. This allows me to get the form alot better and really focus on keeping my legs up.. and at the least keeping my bottom leg straight out.

Getting near the end of my (sugar free) Almond Milk (when it comes out in clumps).. it sort of taste a bit like Vanilla Ice Cream, though many people would probably disagree.

Day 11

Ending up not going to lunch at work (not enough time to meet deadlines), so I'm posting a bit late.

Yoga X- As far as I remember everything went well. I have a better idea of the flow and forms for the beginning part (which is also the most intense part), so I don't have to look at the video as much.

Day 10

Got off at around the same time as last night, but this time I got everything caught up. So that will put me in a good position for tomorrow.

Arms and Shoulders- Everything went very well. The weights I used were good and I think they will stay the same next week.

Ab Ripper X- I really felt that burning feeling in my Abs at the end of it this time. I'm getting better at keeping my legs up during the "Fifer Scissors", but still have trouble keeping them straight out or straight up.

Day 9 (Unintended Rest Day)

So, I didn't end up getting home until 5:40am. It still would have given me enough time to workout, eat something, and get 8 hours of sleep... but I didn't plan things out well and end up.. not working out...... I'm disappointed that I just let that happen. What I'll do is, do either Cardio X or Plyometerics next Sunday Night. That should sort of put me back on track. If I ever miss more then 2 days within the same week then I'll likely restart at Day 1. This one minor blackmark, that will hopefully not happen again.

The good thing is, things are going okay at work today. I wasn't able to finish everything I wanted to, but I have most things cleared and should be out around maybe 3am..?

The Programming Competetion starts July 1st (as soon as I get home), though I don't plan on getting much done this week. I would like to think that I'll do a little work once I get home (but after my workout).

Day 8

Chest and Back- It seemed like my muscles were a little stiff going into it tonight. I decided to stay on my knees for most of the time and really try to get good form. I kind of impressed myself when I was doing the "Reverse Grip Chin-Ups" I was able to lock my muscles when I was at the top. I'm thinking next time I might up my 15's to 20's (I won't need to buy any extra weight to make that change).

Ab Ripper X- Not as good as last time, but better then last week.
