Today is the first day of round 3! I’m not going to be posting regular blog updates but I will be posting 30 60 and 90 day result pics as they come so keep a lookout for them. Oh yeah, I’m also planning on doing doubles this time through so the results should be pretty amazing!

I haven’t been posting for the past few days, but I’m still here! Today I did a really hard workout. I would say it is within the top 5 workouts that I’ve ever done in my life. First I started by doing a very intense Chest and Back workout. I pushed really hard and upped my reps on almost all the moves. I also did an intense Back and Bicep workout as well. I followed those up with the Insanity workout Cardio Abs and then I completed Ab Ripper X! I did every workout at 100% and it was just amazing!

Todays workout was Chest and Back and Ab Ripper X and it was fabulous! I pushed harder then ever before. My numbers were up on every single exercise and I’m feeling amazing. Ab ripper x went very well too. I even got through the entire 25 fifer scissors without stopping which is pretty good if you ask me. I think today may have been the best workout I’ve done ever!

Today starts day 1 of my P90X / Insanity hybrid workout routines. I’m still cotinuing to count the workouts as round 2 of P90X just to keep things a bit easier to track. Todays workout consisted of Chest and Back and Cardio Abs. The chest and back workout was really good. I pushed myself hard and I ended up doing a ton of pushups. Then I did the Cardio Abs routine for the first time. It’s a really great ab workout. It’s about the same length as the Ab Ripper X routine but it makes you sweat a lot more. I could really feel it in my abs afterwards. I can already tell this hybrid workout is going to be really hard. I’m looking forward to the challenge!

Our chest and back workout was absolutly amazing. The weight vest that I’ve been wearing for the workout is really helping to push the workout to the next level. I’m going to miss doing chest and back for the next 6 weeks or so. Anyways, I was able to raise my reps on all the moves again and I felt great afterwards. Napua and Bransen also had good workouts today. They are pushing harder and I’m really proud of their progress. Ab ripper x went really well this time too!

Once again I decided to wear my 20 lb weight vest for the chest and back routine. I was able to up my reps on every move and I even feel better after completing the workout today then I did last week. Ab ripper x went better this time as well. I’m very satisfied with todays workout and I know if I keep bringing it like this I’m going to make some amazing gains!

Today was the first day of P90X round 2 and boy was it an amazing workout. I decided to do the chest and back routine while wearing a 20 lb weight vest this round and it totally kicked my butt! I was so sore after the workout (in a good way). I’m excited to see what my numbers will be like after doing a full round of pull-ups and push-ups using the vest. Ab ripper x was pretty hard after being away in Hawaii for so long. I was able to complete most of it though and overall I’m happy with what I accomplished today. Napua did very well today too. Also, Napua’s brother Bransen has started doing P90X with us as well so today was day 1 of his first round. He did very well but it really kicked his but by the end!

Today was officially the last doubles workout routine before we leave for Hawaii. And since when we get back I plan on starting round 2 without doubles so I can start bulking up, it may be the last doubles workout for quite a while. This morning I started out with an amazing cardio workout. Then I did chest and back and ab ripper x this afternoon. The chest and back routine went amazingly well. I upped the reps on pretty much every exercise once again. What a great workout!

I’ve posted my p90x day 120 result pictures on the bottom of the page. I haven’t had a chance to post my measurements yet but I will do that soon.

Todays workouts started this morning with a great cardio workout. Then this afternoon I did chest and back followed by ab ripper x. The chest and back workout was perhaps the best workout I’ve ever done. I upped my reps again on every exercise. By the time it was finished I was so wiped out. I could barely even flex my muscles, which you can sort of tell in the result pictures, especially the biceps one.

We only have 9 more days until we leave for our hawaii trip, so it looks like I’ll be going through until day 129 on my first round of p90x. After we get back then I’ll start on day 1 of round 2.

Today was supposed to be a doubles workout… I did triples instead! This morning I started out with an intense cardio workout. I did Jillian Michaels burn fat boost metabolism dvd. It was very good. I always enjoy doing this workout because as far as cardio goes, it’s one of the best dvds you can get. It’s a really great supplement to the p90x videos. This after noon I did chest and back. Twice. I did it once through, then did ab ripper x. After that I took about a half hour break and then did the chest and back routine again. I didn’t repeat the ab ripper x workout though since I didn’t think that I needed it. The ‘tripples’ workout must have done the trick because after I finished I was making dinner and my brother in law came over for a visit. When he saw me in my workout shorts and tank top the first thing he said was “Dude, you’re so buff!”. I love getting comments like that!

Another day of p90x, and doubles, is in the book. The cardio workout went pretty good this morning. Chest and back went fairly well aslo. I did about the same amount of reps as I did the last time. I did raise them a bit but not as much as I would have liked to. It was a good workout though. Ab ripper x went well also. I had a lot of trouble with the Fiffer Scissors once again though. Overall I would say the days workouts were average to just better then average. Nothing special but still some good workouts.

I wanted to post comparison results of the progress I’ve made from week 1 to week 11.

Key:
C = With Chair
PD = Pull-Downs using Green Band.

Today was the final chest and back workout of the first 90 days of P90X and I had the best workout I’ve ever had. I’m feeling so good right now. I pushed 100 percent on every exercise like always and it really pays off. I was able to increase my reps on pretty much every single exercise again this week. When I compare my week 1 results to todays results the differences just amaze me. It’s so crazy how far along I’ve come in just over 2 months time. Ab ripper x went well also. I could really feel my abs working hard after the couple days of rest that they had over the weekend. Today was also a doubles day and this mornings cardio x was a really great workout as well. At this point I just have one word to describe P90X. Incredible!

Todays workout was amazing. I still love doing chest and back. I was able to up the reps on pretty much every exercise from last time. The workout just feels good! Today was also cardio x and ab ripper x days as well and both of those workouts were great too. What a nice start to phase 3! I have a feeling that these last 30 or so days of round 1 are going to be amazing.

I really loved todays chest and back workout. I was able to make really good progress over the last couple weeks and I’ve been pushing hard every single time. I’m going to miss doing this workout every week but I guess that’s part of the muscle confusion!
