P90X Daily Workouts

P90X Day Twenty: Kenpo X

by Pam on July 10, 2010

Twenty days! I can’t believe it’s been twenty days. Today was Kenpo again which I enjoy. I’m also discovering that when you do everything correctly and engage in the exercises, you get a great ab workout with your cardio. That’s great for me since I can’t do Ab Ripper right now. I am struggling with [...]

P90X Day Nineteen: Legs & Back

by Pam on July 9, 2010

Today was the first time I was able to do all 20 dead lift squats. That’s progress! I also feel like I need to add weight to the calf raises so that’s another reason to pick up some free weights. The balanced lunges are the only exercise that I am still struggling with. I added [...]

P90X Day Eighteen: Yoga

by Pam on July 8, 2010

I thought yoga day would be one of my favorites but I’d say it’s middle of the road at best. It’s not that the yoga video is bad, it’s just not one that I enjoy as much as I like Kenpo or the Shoulders & Arms workout. It’s also the longest workout of the week [...]

P90X Day Seventeen: Shoulders & Arms

by Pam on July 7, 2010

I was able to start increasing my reps on some exercises this week and I feel like my form is getting stronger. I’m getting increasingly frustrated with the bands. They are a great way to start but next time I am near a sporting goods store I’m going to pick up some 5 pound dumbbells [...]

P90X Day Sixteen: Plyometrics

by Pam on July 6, 2010

I’ve officially completed 1/6 of the program! Okay so that’s only two weeks but it sounds better to say 1/6 I think. So, this was my third time doing plyometrics. I’m starting to figure out how to land quietly like Tony repeatedly tells us to do. The key is landing on your toes and bending [...]

P90X Day Fifteen: Chest & Back

by Pam on July 5, 2010

Okay so I went out last night and had a few drinks. Or a few too many drinks. But I was determined to stay with the program so I pushed through Chest & Back anyway. The warm up was much harder than it usually is. Speaking of the warm up, can we talk about how [...]

P90X Day Thirteen: Kenpo X

by Pam on July 3, 2010

I mentioned last week that it was easy to slack off during Kenpo. So, today I really focused on my movements and staying engaged. It definitely made a difference in how hard the workout felt. I also got a little better at the combo moves this week but I’m still pretty klutzy! There are a [...]

P90X Day Twelve: Legs & Back

by Pam on July 2, 2010

Okay can we talk about wall squats here? Holy shizz. By the end of the 90 seconds I am mooing like a calving cow. I only go about half way down right now but that gets the job done for now. I try not to stare at the time ticking down while doing the wall [...]

P90X Day Eleven: Yoga

by Pam on July 1, 2010

Namaste, bitches. That’s pretty much how I feel after Yoga X. It’s yoga, but it’s not that breath deep and visualize your power animal kind of yoga. Even without doing the pushups before the downward dogs, I can tell that I am getting a good arm and chest workout without really trying and your legs [...]

This is by far my favorite weights workout in the program. I’m still using the bands to do all of the exercises but I’m really leaning towards getting some free weights. It’s hard to note how big of a loop you should have or how much tension to have on the bands for these types [...]
