Got to throw away to plate this morning!
I know what you are thinking what the heck is he talking about? Let me tell you, today was chest, shoulders and Triceps and it was the last time I will be doing this workout for a few months. One of the exercises is chest flies. For those of you that may not know what this is, you get in a push up position and put a paper plate under your left hand. When you go down into your push up you slide the plate out to the left and when you come back up you slide the plate back so you are back to a normal plank position. You do this four times then you switch hands and do it again. Once I finished that exercise there was no need for the paper plate I have kept in the office since I started this round of P90X so I got to call it a day and throw the plate away. When I went to bed last night I made the comment that I really have to go after this workout today because I wanted to really bring it and see the numbers go up one last time before ending this workout. That did not happen, a few of the exercises the reps went up but most of them stayed the same and some of them even went down. I just felt like I didn't have all the energy that I normally have going into a workout today. Don't get me wrong it was still a good workout and I was covered in sweat when I was done but it didn't go the way I wanted it to. I really don't know if it was just an off day or if it had anything to do with running out of vitamins, or even that I have not had a Shakeology in the last few days. I am thinking it is mostly just an off day. I guess we will test that theory tomorrow on Cardio and Ab day. I will be doing Bob Harper Cardio and Abs so it is going to be a killer workout. The good thing is I am starting my work day close to home at 9 AM so I will be able to sleep a little bit longer than I normally would before stating the workout so that is a win. It is pretty awesome that I now have less than two weeks left in this round of P90X, so a week from Monday I will be taking my final fit test to see how far I have come in two rounds of it. I will be taking the next day off and going right into INSANITY which will lead me right up to my birthday and some time at the beach. I am really hoping to have that six pack by then but we will see. I am totally excited to do INSANITY, I have a guy that posts on my Team Beachbody thread that is crushing it right now and I want to see if I can get the same results has he dose. Keep an eye on the blog to see how that goes. By the way I am such a nerd I even have my fitness scheduled out all the way to May of next year. I will be doing INSANITY, followed by a week off, followed by P90X/INSANITY hybrid, then will take two weeks off in December. At the start of the new year it is time to start training for the county music marathon, then I figure I will need a little time off after that before deciding what to do next.
