P90X Round 2 Day 59 – My arms are looking big.

Dennis — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 00:39:15 +0000

Todays workout was Shoulders and Arms. I had a really good workout. I decided to do the workout a bit differently today. I didn’t use the dvd, instead I just went off of the worksheet, and I decided to do the exercises from the bottom of the worksheet and work my way up. It was pretty cool to do it this way. I was able to do a lot more reps/weight for the exercises at the bottom that I am normally tired by the time I get to, and also I had to really push hard to get the normal amount of reps that I’m used to doing by the time I made it to the top of the sheet. I would recommend trying it sometime. Ab ripper x went very well also. I was able to complete the fifer scissors moves again which is pretty cool. About an hour or so after I finished the workouts my wife saw me with my shirt off and she said, “Your arms look really big!”. Yep, P90X Shoulders and Arms works…

P90X Round 2 Day 52 – Working my arms

Dennis — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 00:26:50 +0000

I had another good workout today. I did Shoulders and Arms and followed it up with Cardio Abs. Both workouts went well. Bransen was over doing his Kenpo workout so he decided to do the cardio abs routine with me and he was suprised by it but it was good.

P90X Round 2 Day 17 – Another breakthrough workout

Dennis — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 03:32:09 +0000

Todays workout was Shoulders and Arms. I pushed myself as hard as I possibly could and I made gains in pretty much every exercise. By the end I had such an amazing pump going in my shoulders, arms and chest. I’m going to miss this workout for the next 6 weeks as well. Ab ripper x went really well today also. I’m very happy overall with todays shoulder and arms / ab ripper x routine. Bransen worked out with us again today and he did pretty good as well. He was using heavier weights this time and I think he got a nice pump from the workout too.

P90X Round 2 Day 10 – Lifting Heavy

Dennis — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 01:40:21 +0000

Today was day 10 of P90X round 2. Shoulders and Arms. I tried to raise the weight or reps on every exercise and I had an amazing pump throughout almost the entire workout. It feels really good! Next week I’m going to try to bring it even harder if that’s possible. Ab ripper x went ok this week. I wish it was better but I’m not too disapointed in it. Overall todays workout was really good.

P90X Round 2 Day 3 – Shoulders and Arms

Dennis — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 13:45:46 +0000

Todays workout was Shoulders and Arms. I did fairly well considering it’s been a few weeks away in Hawaii without working out. I actually was able to lift a fair amount of weight so I’m pretty happy about todays workout. My left arm and shoulder are still a little sore from the day 1 Chest and Back workout but I managed to work through the soreness. Bransen did well on his first shoulders and arms workout also. He decided to use lighter weights and focus on his form since he’s still pretty sore from days 1 and 2. He did better then I expected though. Ab ripper X went well for all 3 of us. I’m still at the stage where I can really feel my abs burning, even when sitting up in bed and doing normal daily activities. It’s a great feeling!

P90X Day 122 – Changing it up a bit

Dennis — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 02:53:45 +0000

I felt like doing something a little different today so this morning instead of pushing play I decided to take a walk on the treadmill and then ride my bike around the neighborhood in place of the normal cardio x workout. It was a really nice change of pace and I’m glad that I did it. This afternoons workout was shoulders and arms. This time around I just tried to match last sessions numbers, which I did for the most part. There were a few exercises when I did a few less then last time but I’m ok with that. Overall, I think today was a pretty good workout day.
