Day 30

Plyometerics- Kind of exhausting for me tonight. I was more in the air then previous attempts. I had my trainers on to give more support on the landings, so I was able to feel like I could get up more. The exception being the moves in the run stance, I did the low impact version on those. Landing laterally, seems a bit 'iffy to me. My heart for the most part was in the 140's and maxed at 150.

I feel like if I could start running again I could increase my lungs size. I sort of want to replace Plyometerics and Kenpo X with a Stretch X / Running Day(s), but.. I probably won't.. I would feel like it would be cheating to do that.

30 Days, I'm one third of the way closer to the end. If I was following the program exactly I would be taking my 30 days picture (which I'm not going to do BTW). I'm impressed by the small little changes I notice every week, I don't a picture to motivate me.

Day 29

Chest, Shoulder, and Tricep- Another new one. Alot of various forms of Push-Ups in this one. It feels strange in the arms near the end (for me), because its like a chunck of your arms in middle didn't get worked out as much as everything else.

Ab Ripper X- The return of Ab Ripper X. I did good, I think. Straight lets are a problem in "Heels to Heavens" and "Fifer Scissors", but they were allways off the ground and in motion.

Its a little disappointing having Ab Ripper X after the Strength Resitance workouts, because whatever muscles groups I was working do not feel nearly as tight as immediantly after I finish. It makes me wonder if my muscles (that are worked before Ab Ripper X) are getting the nutrients they need after I do Ab Ripper X. I like doing Ab Ripper X though. Just makes me think it might be better after a Cardio workout for me, since my Cardio doesn't really need as much improvment IMO.

Day 28

Stretch X- It's definately not like the other workouts, much more relaxed. I should really do it on my rest days.. I could definately use the improved flexability.

Tomorrow is start of Phase 2 of 3, which includes 2 new workouts.

Day 27

Yoga X- Everything went pretty well, no major improvements.., but overall I want to say I did better then last time. I added 5 seconds to my crane pose.

Day 26

Core Synergistics- Everything went well. I didn't really get any back pain this time around. I got the "Superman" position down pretty well this time, though.. my mat might have helped some. I felt worn in the upper arms and lower abs tonight.

Yesterday Day 25 was suppose to be Stretch X, I sort of skipped it. Either I'll do it when I wake up tomorrow or do it on my Rest Day. I was off from work yesterday and today.. so my nutrition suffered a bit and my planning got a bit skewed.

Day 24

Kenpo X- Posting kind of late.. I don't remeber anything that stood out.

Day 23

Core Synergistics- Something new. Overall I think I like it. It has a good balance of moves I could improve on and things that I do fairly well at. Most of the stuff moves on pretty quickly too. There were a few moves were I felt some back pain, but I guess thats common when starting out.. and (as ar as I read) the more I engage the core muscles the back pain will dissipate. I imagine, it's like how I had lower back pain on the first week of Ab Ripper X.., but then on the third week I had no back pain.. but had that burning sensation in my abs.
