Soo, after doing about half of the first week of the P90X last week I quit about halfway through. I didn’t really quit as much as I didn’t have time for the last three days and I had to skip them. Well, not being one to give up quite that easily, I started fresh this week with day 1 – Chest & Back and the Ab Ripper X. This time I worked my way through the entire workout, though much of it was a struggle. Last week I was only able to complete a bit more than half of the exercises and this time I did my workout all the way through, I also kept track of everything on the worksheets.
I now understand that you really have to commit to this plan 110% if you want to make it all the way through and see results at the end. The workout is quite exhaustive for the chest portion – doing 5 different push up type exercises and then doing another set of all 5. The back exercises are more pull up focused, though I find myself too early in the game to be able to do full pull ups, instead I use the elastic bands to mimic the motion in hopes that I get stronger over time and will be able to join in. The work out characters are all incredibly buff and in shape, but as our personal video trainer Tony Horton likes to remind us, they all struggled at first and as the days and weeks passed they were all able to improve.
All in all I feel that this might be a ridiculously successful workout system … as long as I’m able to see it to the end.
