P90X Days 2, 3, 4 and 5

Day 2 Plyometrics

This workout, WOW! It was tough, I made it to the end though. I don't think I have ever sweat so much during a workout before. My legs were on fire and I was very nauseous during this one, I'm sure that will eventually go away. Hopefully by week 2 or 3! Because I started my P90X journey on a Thursday, I will be doing Plyometrics every Friday, except during recovery weeks, and I must say that is the only reason I will look forward to doing Plyometrics!

Day 3 Shoulders & Arms, Ab Ripper X

The shoulders and arms workout felt great. I was, however, very sore today. My quads were killing me. It hurt to sit down and it hurt to stand back up. So I know that I am bringing it with my workouts. If I wasn't sore that would mean I didn't push myself hard enough. My abs hurt the worst today though and it took everything I had to make it through Ab Ripper X. Since it was Saturday though, it was nice to have my husband around to chat with while I was working out! I think I pushed even harder because he was there!

Day 4 Yoga X

Trust me, this isn't your laid back "let's just get some good stretching done yoga". This workout is also a killer! There were quite a few moves that were very hard for me and some that I could barely do. I worked hard though and did the best I could do. It will get easier with time as I get more flexible. I found the first half to be the hardest. The moving yoga sequences are tough. The second half works on balance, this is what I am used to doing for yoga, so I found it to be a little easier. Only because I was more familiar with the poses. All in all Yoga X really stretched me out good. A lot of the soreness from the past few days went away and the rest of the day I felt good.

Day 5 Legs and Back, Ab Ripper X

I woke up this morning feeling the best I have felt since I started this journey. The back portion was just 4 different types of pull ups. The leg exercises, however, were tough. The amount of different types of squats was insane! I know that I will feel this workout in my calf's and quads come tomorrow morning! No Pain, No Gain! Ab Ripper X was much better today. I was able to do some of the movements better today than I could the first 2 times, so I know it's working and I will only improve more as I move forward!
