Round 2: Day 75: ARX, Shoulders & Arms, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

I decided to workout in the evening instead of morning. I've been having hard time to sleep lately, thanks to this humid and hot weather. Besides tomorrow is my rest day so I don't have to go to sleep too early.

Anyway, working out in this hot humid weather was quite a challenge. I was already sweating even before started ARX. Can't believe this is the last Shoulders and Arms workout for this round.

Round 2: Day 73 - Yoga X & Day 74 - ARX, Legs & Back, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

Day 73 - Yoga X
Felt good to do Yoga again, though I was slacking off on my Chaturanga in the beginning. But at least I could hold Half Moon poses a bit longer than before.

Day 74 - ARX, Legs & Back, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs
I've been having hard time to go to sleep at night, thanks to this hot and humid weather. Plus, since opening the window means a light sleeper like me get more distracted by the noises from outside, especially when the train passes by. I live nearby a railroad tracks. Good thing I still managed to drag my asses off the bed and did the workout, and not ditching ChaLean again.

Also I noticed Tony promoted Beachbody.com in Legs & Back a lot more often compared to his other videos. Been noticing for a while but I keep forgetting to write it on the post.

Round 2: Day 67 - Yoga X & Day 68 - ARX, Back & Biceps, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

Sorry for the missing post yesterday, was quite a busy day. I had to do Yoga in the evening because I had to be fasting in the morning prior my medical examination. My lunch meal was more like late lunch and super early dinner so was pretty messed up. I had to cut Yoga X short (up to the balance poses only).

ARX, Back & Biceps and ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs this morning. B&B video was the most cheerful compare to other P90X. Seems like everyone in there always chimed in to Tony's lame jokes. I am not always listening to their conversation, instead just had to keep hitting pause button to finish my reps or to adjust my dumbbells.

Rest day tomorrow, more sleep.

Round 2: Day 66 - ARX, Legs & Back, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

Lately it's pretty tough to get up and workout in the early morning. Could it be I start to get burn out from morning workouts? Blah..I won't get it get to me. It's the last phase, and I want to push myself even harder.

I decided to do Legs & Back today so I have ample of time for my legs to recover before the beach run this coming Saturday. L&B is always tough as usual but I do have my favorite: 3 way lunges (which was introduced by Dreeeeyaah according to Tony).
Single leg wall squat is very deadly to me. I could only manage to hold halfway..anyone could hold the full minute?

My chest and arms are still sore from CST from Sunday.

Round 2: Day 64 - ARX, Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

We decided to skip the beach run today and slept in a bit and I did the usual P90X resistance workout. CST was always tough as usual. My triceps was trembling a lot by the end of it, not to mention ChaLean also had additional push ups for the ab workout. For Day 60 pic, I decided to skip it. I've made my mind that I won't put any picture up unless there's a lot of significant difference from the previous ones. As far as I know, Day 60 pic doesn't look much difference from the Round 2 day 30 pic. We'll see how Day 90 pic will be. Anyway, Day 90 won't be my last day of workout, more like my last day of P90X routine and after that point I'll be working on my own routine.

For the ones who live in the US, Have a safe and fun 4th of July! Enjoy the BBQ in moderation and have fun watching the fireworks tonight!

Round 2: Day 60 - ARX, Legs & Back, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

I tried to do extra reps per Carl's suggestion in order to be more intense and in some ways it worked. By the time I got to Leg Climb and Mason Twist, I couldn't do extra rep anymore. I intended to do Mason's Twist to 60, but by the time Tony stopped counting, my legs just dropped and I couldn't do more. Instead I did cobra and a brief child pose then moved on to Legs & Back. Tough as usual, but I enjoyed it in some ways. I still don't quite get the 80-20 Debby Sieber's Speed Squat tho.

I almost wanted to skip ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs due to certain circumstances, but I was like screw it and just got it over with! And I did. I felt "guilty" if I sabotaged my own workout schedule, especially I am in the last phase. No cutting corners here!

Tomorrow will be another resistance day, Shoulders and Arms and more abs. I know it's not advisable to do resistance workout back to back, but the idea of having Friday as my rest day appeals me more.

Round 2: Day 58 - ARX, Chest & Back, ChaLean Extreme I've Got Abs

Guess what? This is Phase III and I gotta bring it! Wow, this second round flew by so fast and now I'm already in the last phase. I decided to go back to regular Ab Ripper X instead doing the reverse. Gotta keep my abs muscle confused, right? Also today is the first day of resistance workout and after a whole week without them, I struggled quite a lot in some ways. I even struggled with ARX, almost lost it at Mason's Twist...ugh! However, I pushed myself to do at least 20 reps of the push ups, first 10 on toes and last 10 on knees. I did manage cranking out 20 reps of standard push from the toes at the first round, but had to break it down to toes and knees on second round.

I wore my HRM, and total calories burn of today's workout is 156 calories.
