Day 22

Yoga X- I think I improved on the Yoga Belly section. I tried to increase the time held in the crane position, but fell at the same time (30 secs)... only not on my head this time. I also earned a sun burn yesterday.. so "Plow" and all the other "put all of your weight your shoulders" positions were a bit unpleasant.

Day 20

Kenpo X- For the most part my heart rate rate was in the 130's.

Now on 4 hours of sleep.. I'll meet with my sister's family, go swimming, and then stay awake for the next 20 hours? Hopefully I can get a qucik nap sometime in the day.

I have now offically caught up with last year's progress.

Day 19

Legs and Back- I was definately sweating alot for this type of workout... I would like to think it was because I was working hard, but it was probably due to the fact that I ate not long before I started the workout. I didn't have much issues with my joints today. I ended up getting less reps with my pull ups, but.. I think I did go lower then last week (but, I'm still not going from as low as hanging).

Ab Ripper X- I lost some progress I made two days ago. My "Mason Twist" were the best they've been though.

Day 18

Yoga X- Everything went well. I would like to see my self improve by staying off the ground near the end of the Movement Positons phase (with "Half Moon" and such). I held "Crane" for 30 secs, and then fell on my head x_x . My wrists were feeling a little sore the next day, but now they seem fine.

Day 17

Arms and Shoulders- I increased my weight on some of the routines. My strategy will be, if I get 12 with good form then increase the weights for the next set. The trick for the "Tri-Side Rises" for me... I think is pushing more with the palm (then the hand) and keeping the top leg up in the air to help balance. It's kind of crazy how huge your muscles feel imeediantly after the workout is over.

Ab Ripper X- I noticed an improvement on my form on the "V-Up Combo", during the up part. For "Fifer Scissors" my feet never touch the ground now. I felt my "Hip Rock & Raise" was very good. I probably struggle most with "Pulse-Ups". I getting to the exercise.. seeing what I could do better, and then really improving on it over time. Ab Ripper X is kind of nice because it is so short and is done so frequently within P90X.

Day 16

I started really late, but I was determined to not repeat last week's mistake.

Plyometrics- I think I did well. I had my heart rate in the 140's or 150's throughout the majority of it.

I haven't been getting a good amount of sleep since the weekend before last. I think it's starting to catch up with me.

Day 15

Start of week 3...

Chest and Back- Though I was on my knees alot, my push-ups had great form.. elbows, straight back, and going down low. I increased my weights for the "Lawnmowers" and "Heavy Pants" to 20lbs, and feel I can increase my weights for "Back Flyes" to 10lbs. I didn't notice an improvement over last week in my pullups, I may have just been more tired going into it this time though.

Ab Ripper X- I improved on some routines, but also did worse on some others.
