P90X Lean Workout Review

Mental note to self, NEVER take that much time off again!!!!! I had a protein shake for breakfast. Work was another busy day. Lots going on, plus I was trying to resolve some insurance issues before my daughter’s surgery. Stressful day I guess you could say. My AM snack was a strawberry soy joy bar. You can find them in the fitness food isle of just about any grocery store. They were much better than I expected! For lunch I had some beef barley soup and an apple. My PM snack was an ounce of turkey jerky. Once I got home from work and got the kids off the bus I decided to jump right back into things. No use waiting until later tonight when I’m all comfy after dinner. It was core city tonight. I am ashamed to say that those days off really took a toll on my body. It is amazing what those days of lazy can do! I still had the great form and the max reps, but my stamina was shot by about 45 mins into the exercise. I was pouring sweat and breathing nice and heavy by the time we reached walking push ups. It wasn’t much long after that when I threw in the towel for the night. It was to the point that my form was suffering badly. I figure 45 mins is not too shabby though coming off 5 days off, a cold, and some nasty burns to my leg. I am happy with the results tonight, but certainly not thrilled. I guess it will be PUSH PUSH PUSH this next week to get back up to par. Tomorrow night’s workout is cardio x. I can’t wait to see how that kicks my ass! They say this phase 2 period is when you really start to see some defining results. So I plan on kicking it into high gear here and blowing everyone away. So now that I am all soaked and smelly I am going to go jump in the shower before it’s time to cook dinner. Oh, dinner for tonight will be kidney beans with brown rice and turkey kielbasa. Nto sure where that falls on the health scale of things, but I know the rice and turkey are good LOL! So I will talk to you all tomorrow after my trip down cardio lane.
