My arms feel like Jell-o! This workout was tough for me, but then again, it is "upper" body. The circuits are repetitive, just like with lower P.A.P., each set repeated 4 times. The breaks in between are short. The circuits include push ups, rows, superman, plank, abs, pull ups and presses, just to name a few. I pretty much completed half of every set in the workout. When Tony was doing 10 renegade rows, I completed 5. When they held the plank position for 1 full minute, I held it for 30 seconds before I burned out. But, with this being my first upper P.A.P. workout in this phase, I think I did okay. I know I'll continue to get stronger and eventually complete the workout along with Tony and his pals. I'm feeling optimistic about his phase so far.
On a different note, I tried quinoa for the first time yesterday. I used the recipe in the P90X2 cookbook. It was pretty tasty. And since I'm entitled to a full legume now, I can see myself working it into my breakfast menu.
Until next time...
This blog is intended to serve as both a resource and support through the P90X2 program. As P90X graduates, we've decided to continue to include helpful links, articles and recipes to those who are working through the P90X programs. Although we will mostly focus on the new program, we will keep all links and articles pertaining to P90X on our blog. As always, we welcome comments, questions and any other inspiring words to others who might be reading this and seeking encouragement themselves.
