Day 3 Shoulders & Arms

Day 3~ P 90X round 8

Did my 3 mile power  walk this morning before work, 17000 steps on the feet so far, went up the 8 flights of stairs to the top floor piece of cake only mildly winded.
Now it is time for Shoulders and Arms, Had my Nox oxide,time to go down and get crazy with Tony and Bobby.

Shoulders and Arms – This is very similar in “style” to chest and back but we all found it to be a much easier workout and that makes sense as it is working two small muscle groups as opposed to two large muscle groups. The workouts you will do TWICE are: Alternating Shoulder Presses, In and Out Bicep Curls, Two-Arm Tricep Kickbacks, Deep Swimmer’s Presses, Full Supination Concentration Curls, Chair Dips, Upright Rows, Static Arm Curls, Flip-grip Twist Tricep Kickbacks, Two-Hand Shoulder Flys, Crouching Cohen Curls, and Lying-down Tricep Extensions with bonus rounds including In and Out Shoulder Flys, Congdon Curls, Side Tri-Rises. After all that you get to also do Ab Ripper X!!

Day 2 Plyo X!

Day 2 - P 90X  Pylometrics Round 8
It has been along time since I have done this and it was great@!

Missed this Video with Pam the blam , the one legged man (amazing) , and Tony and the Dominic (leap frog)

• Plyometrics – This is by far the hardest workout and is mostly cardio of the lower body and often referred to as jump training. You are run through a series of grueling high impact moves, but if you have knees or back don’t worry there are alternatives shown. Everyone in our test group has herniated discs in either the lower back (2 of us) or neck and we adapted easily. Some example moves are jump squats, Heisman side to side, and lunges. Your thigh and calf muscles will be pushed to the max but after 90 days you will be amazed at how it adds to your fast twitch muscles and endurance.!!
Love this workout, be careful at first until your legs are stronger and support the knees well.
Enjoy 

Tomorrow 
Shoulders and Arms !

P90X Round 1 Week 1 Day 1

Love Chest and Back and being with Tony and the kids at 5am !~

Gave Platelets at the Red Cross tonight and it was hard to not move for 90 minutes arms were sore, they stopped it a few minutes early for me!
You have to pick out a movie to watch as your arms are tied down you cant read a book, they go in one arm  and out the other , filtering the platelets and then putting the blood back.
Good news was the bloodpressure was 120/80.
Watched Kill bill Vol 1, go figure all that sword swinging how could I sit still LOL

Tomorrow Pylometrics !!
