So begins round 2
Tomorrow I will be starting my second round of P90X only this time I am doing it a little differently. On Beach Body's website I found a modification of the program that is geared for gaining mass rather than a full fitness program so that is what I will be doing this time around. The modification is a little lighter on the cardio and more focused resistance training. The new program starts with the devil workout and tells you to focus on 8 to 10 reps on each of the exercises. I have already gone ahead and pulled my workout sheets from the first time around and upped the resistance and wrote it down on the new sheets so I have a starting point. I also have some push up bars getting delivered to me today to add an extra six inches of motion to each of the push ups and presses. I have a feeling that I am going to really give myself a workout tomorrow. Another good thing about the new plan is that you don't do the Ab Ripper workouts the same day as the resistance workouts, the new program has the Ab workouts happening on cardio days so I can spend the 20 minutes I would have spent doing the Ab ripper program going on a lap around the neighborhood to really get the blood flowing blood flowing and the calories burning. Talking with a friend of mine, like I have said before, he told me that going on a short run after the workouts helps to kick start the fat burning process, I am hoping that between that and the additional intensity I get some huge results on this round. Take a look at the blog tomorrow to see how the first workout on the new cycle goes.
