P90X Lean Workout Review

Hello everybody! I started off the day with a protein shake. I spiced things up a little and used some strawberries, bananas, oranges, and protein powder instead of the usual mixed berrie. I think if I added a splash of rum it would have made the day really fine! It was kind of a lounge about morning. We puttered around and did a few things. Ran some errands and what not. My AM snack was a Fiber One bar, and for lunch I had some tomato soup and turkey sandwich on whole wheat. In the afternoon I wacked out my workout. I am using the green band for the back exercises and 5-10lb weights for other things (lunges and extensions). I was much better at this workout than I have been at the other. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t hard as hell though. Those wall squats were absolutely killer! My legs were shaking with 15 sec to spare! I liked the tippy toe lunges. Anything that can make a workout fun is great. I can only imagine what my legs are going to feel like tomorrow!!! I could really feel the burn on the back routines. I did between 12-16 reps depending on the exercises. By the last 2 I was barely making it. Onto Ab ripper…..Again, it wasn’t too pretty with a few of the moves. I am absolutely horrible at the oblique crunches. I just don’t understand how you do it or something! Maybe I just need a little more core strength to get it down right. Fifer scissors is no joke! I have to stop for 2 reps in the middle of that one! I can feel that everywhere!!! I like finishing up with the mason twist. It gets you pumped enough that you just want to go full steam ahead. Plus once you’re done you just want to collapse and go “AHHHHHHH”.  So that was my workout. After I showered I had some soy nuts for my PM snack. Things started going downhill after that. I had gotten a gift card to The Chessacke Factory for my birthday recently. For those of you that don’t know, it is a great resturaunt!!! Well, let’s just say I didn’t exactly stick to the nutrition guide tonight. I felt kind of bad after all the hard work I’ve put in this week. But even Tony says you have to be able to fudge a little every now and then otherwise you go nuts and give up. So I think I earned my slice of Snicker’s Cheesecake. I’ll just be sure to work EXTRA hard tomorrow on Kenpo X! LOL! Well, I think I’m going to take my full belly and go do some laundry. You guys take care!
