But then it started to work my legs and I wanted to scream so I figured that I was just getting it in a different way. Either way it's a good workout and I'm sure I'm getting fitter. My legs haven't felt like this since I was serious about racing and doing intervals.

Of course, there aren't any other sports right now except moving. Big cross training of moving and cleaning. The new house is going to be epic for exercise. Grandeur Peak is now my backyard. <BR/><BR/>I'll keep ammending the program as I go and probably use the X Plus workouts in the third block and do more sport's specific stuff. X Plus is shorter, more hollistic, more intense. But it can't touch, nor is it meant to, the foundation of the standard X stuff.Steve Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17639176315514772554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-88261267869375691162008-04-14T08:14:00.000-06:002008-04-14T08:14:00.000-06:00hey allwe're sticking with the p90x schedule and j...hey all<BR/><BR/>we're sticking with the p90x schedule and just finished plyo. chest and back seemed better, so we added a little more weight to perpetuate the suffering. plyo is hard for me but i like it. my it band appears to have calmed down a bit. i wish i wasn't in the company of geezers (steve!) so i could complain about the old age thing, but even tony horton as a year or 2 on me. damn!<BR/><BR/>good luck all.<BR/><BR/>marcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-24076000181258337962008-04-13T22:58:00.000-06:002008-04-13T22:58:00.000-06:00So, I'm just going to put this on here so you all ...So, I'm just going to put this on here so you all know what I'm doing.

You list different workouts than in the P90X guide. Should we follow your program or the regular P90X program?<BR/><BR/>I'm still pretty sore today, but I feel pretty good. I rode the FS yesterday and the singlespeed today and my legs are very tired, but alright. We'll see how they feel in a couple of days when I hit them up again.<BR/><BR/>-ReedReedsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235713513617918694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-51295411094844686252008-04-12T15:24:00.000-06:002008-04-12T15:24:00.000-06:00lordy, finished week 1 and just got back from a ri...lordy, finished week 1 and just got back from a ride. 2nd time this year on the hippy bike and the trail up from the zoo and dry creek both felt like riding up walls; i even dropped a tooth and rode 35x20 (on a 26"). i'm hoping the flatness i felt was due to p90x. either way, back to the grind and week 2 tomorrow. good work to all!<BR/><BR/>marcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-83386301492452069052008-04-12T14:33:00.000-06:002008-04-12T14:33:00.000-06:00I just finished the Cardio X.

It was nice to be able to do a cardio workout and feel good the whole way through. After yesterday my hamstrings and butt are pretty sore and my abs and back are sore and "crunchy." <BR/><BR/>I'm going to be out on the Hippie bike this afternoon and tomorrow so we'll see how the legs feel after that.<BR/><BR/>Good job everyone.<BR/><BR/>~RReedsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235713513617918694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-87226974731158319312008-04-12T14:09:00.000-06:002008-04-12T14:09:00.000-06:00After the leg and back workout yesterday, I woke u...After the leg and back workout yesterday, I woke up this morning with my calves feeling like they were hit with a crow bar - they are tight.

Actually one of the things that gets on my nerves in typical yoga classes is all the tooty frooty stuff. And it's not like I'm not open minded. I actually kinda like eastern philosophies. If I wasn't a strict adherant to Pastafarianism, I'd be totally some sort of Buddist Hindu mega spaz. But I get so sick of space cadets telling me to find my inner shakira when I'm down dogging two inches away from hippy yogi's musky ass. Give me drill sargent. I'll take that, Trebek.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309712607740704777noreply@blogger.com
