The end of level 1-2

Well I have the final three days for levels 1-2. The move to 3-4 will very welcome. The sweat 1-2 has been a great workout to start but need something more to push me. Although the 7-7-7 is still tough, the rest of the work out is becoming easier. The P 90 is a great way to start your fitness goals. I would recommend it to any one just starting out. I am glad I bought this instead of going straight into P90X!

P-90 Update

I have made some minor adjustments to my diet the last week. Just playing around to see if I have more energy for my workouts. I added pasta back into my diet. Now the thing is I love pasta and can eat plate after plate. What I did do is proper portion control and what a difference. My workouts were fantastic!!! The latest Sweat 1-2 and Sculpt 1-2 were the best since I started. I will keep the pasta in but I will not make a staple to my meal plan. I also have to incorporate brown rice into the picture. Not much of rice eater but it is a good source of carbohydrates! I am learning more as I go along.

Talk soon!

Sculpt 1-2 Update

Did P90 Sculpt 1-2 last night. Overall give it a 8 out of 10.

Still struggling with the 7-7-7 pushups. I can get to 15 and then have to go on my knees to finish the rest. Also I am not doing the pushups at the same time as Tony, thus I am done quicker. I have to start to slow down. I will have to pick up some heavier weight here soon as the 10lbs is just not enough for the back exercises and bicep exercies. It will do for now.

I do use the resistence bands as a change of pace. Overall very effective and in some cases much harder then the weights. The bands work well for the military press and Swimmer press.

My muscles were bagged by the end. As I pushed hard throughout the 30 minutes. I am less then two weeks away from posting my measurements and pictures for 30 days in. Cant wait to see the improvment.

Holidays

I will be doing both Sculpt 1-2 and Sweat 1-2 with ab ripper today. My wife and I had a movie date last night and was to late to do a workout when we came back home. So I will double dip today. We off on our vacation tomorrow. So I will be posting again sometime in early August!! See ya!

Sculpting 1-2 Beach Body

Well ……………… in knew it would be a challenge but the workout last night just showed how out of shape I really am. IT is always nice to get a good dose of reality! The stacking of exercises and constant movement looks easy but doing it is other story, even with Tony stretch breaks. 

The push ups really killed me in the end. The 7-7-7 was tough and barely completed them (form was terrible). The other issue was doing my reps to fast. They do the reps way slower. So I was finding my self doing 20 reps to their 15. I have a lot of work to do. I am slightly sore but more fatiqued in arms and chest. I also now this is just day 2 of 90 days, so I can only go UP!

My son again did the work out with me. He has sore arms today. I let him use the 2 pound weights. He is trooper, did the compete 30 minutes. Back to cardio 1-2 tonight and Ab Ripper. My abs are still sore from Monday – in fact they are worse not better LOL. Talk to you later!

Todays Feeling about last Night P-90 Workout

I woke up this morning with sore arms and ab muscles. Not surprised about the abs as I need a great deal of work to get them back into shape! The Ab Ripper did its job.
Diet wise I will need more Carbs. I felt good throughout the work out but this morning I was really dragging. I will have to look at a recovery drink. After some research I think I will stick with low fat chocolate milk. Cheap alternative but yet very effective. I must drink within 30 minutes of when I stop my exercise! I will give that a shot and see what the response will be. I cheated abit today having 6 purdy chocolates our neighbors brought over. We helped them with their garden – weeding it etc. Nice gesture and they are great people!!! I will do the P90 Sculpt 1-2 tonight – I will give you an update later on.
