Kicking Off Week 2 With A Bang

I started week two of my P90X journey this morning with a repeat of the Chest/Back/Ab Ripper X workout that I did last Monday.  Now that I knew what to expect, I felt more prepared and was able to keep up with the group a little more.  I followed Tony's advice and paced myself during the first half and then took it up a notch for the second half.  I still cannot do full push-ups, but I will get there in time.  I really tried to pay a lot more attention to form, especially on the military style push-ups, so that I could make sure I was getting the total benefit from each move.  I am excited to feel stronger already.  I cannot wait to see the end result.
 
Last week I mentioned that I was not too happy with the same routine all three days for Ab Ripper X.  Today, though, I did want to do the program the way it was intended so with just a few pauses/breaks, I followed the Ab Ripper X from start to finish.  One thing I noticed about both programs today was how quickly they flew by.  Before I knew it, I was done with both and that says a lot for a workout that is over an hour long.  I honestly had a mental block when it came to working out at home and would find every excuse not to do it, but I have definitely changed my tune.  I believe I am getting a much better work out now and am enjoying what each day's challenge will be.  See ya tomorrow for another round of Plyo!
