Day 26 of P90x-Insanity Hybrid

Today was Day 26 and the plan called for P90x Core Syn.  I just love this workout because it really attacks your core and your able to get a little cardio in.  My daughter decided to join me for this workout.  Checkout the pic that's attached.  Since I am turning it up a bit, I decided to also add in about 25 mins of cardio/strength training.  I'm really sore and will need to make sure that I take my Shakeology tonight before going to bed.

P90x-Insanity Hybrid Day 22 - Core Cardio & Balance

So, today was Day 22 of our Fit Phatty hybrid challenge.  It's been a long time since I've done Core Cardio & Balance.  Can I just tell you that my core is screaming right now!??!?!  I'm super excited that it's recovery week because there are some great workouts scheduled this week.  Also looking forward to Thursday as that workout is Core Synergistics.  Even though it is recovery week, I will add in some of my own additional cardio workouts but plan to take it easy. 

Have a great recovery week!

P90x-Insanity Hybrid - Day 17: Shoulders, Arms & ARX

Today was Day 17 of our Team Fit Phatty hybrid of P90x-Insanity.  I have to say, it was a good day.  I was focused on heavier weights in the 8-10 rep range.  I'm looking to increase the muscle size in my arms and legs.  Needs to say, I worked myself today.  By the end of the workout, I was feeling accomplished and pooped!  I love when I lift and I can be drenched with sweat and breathe heavy.

Day 5: P90x/Insanity Hybrid Challenge - Legs/Back & ARX

Well, my legs are burning like CRAZY!  Today was day 5 of the P90x/Insanity hybrid challenge.  What was on tap???  Legs/Back and ARX.  I started the morning with 20 mins of running intervals.  I then hosted our 6am 8 in 8 workout, which was Cardio Abs.  Shaun T puts in down in only 15 mins and my abs feel it and say thank you!  Next up, legs and back.  My legs are burning from all those squats, skaters and lunges.  I'm tryna burn my thighs OFF!  I even got my pull ups and chin ups in.  I was so proud that I got in 9 chin ups in a row!  WOOT....go me!  To close my workout, I did Ab Ripper X.  Tony put in another 15 min workout that sent me over the edge.  This challenge is NO JOKE....you should join me/us!

Day 3: P90X/Insanity Hybrid Challenge - Shoulders/Arms and ARX

So, today was day 3 of the p90x/insanity hybrid.  The schedule called from shoulders/arms and ab ripper x.  I knew I was going to be in for it because I had to host the 6am 8 in 8 challenge.  And of course there was a twist to that workout.  I started the day with 30 mins of running intervals.  Then we did Insanity's Insane Abs for the 8 in 8.  The end my workouts, I completed Shoulders/Arms and Ab Ripper X.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to complete the bonus round because I found out school was closed with no power.  I didn't know if it was true because I hadn't heard anything on the news, the school website nor school line was updated and we hadn't received a call.  Finally, I saw when of the bus drivers and she confirmed that it was, and then after all that we received a call from the school saying it was closed.  Next week, I'll complete the bonus round.  I'm feeling really good after today's workouts.  I'll continue to stretch to make it through the day.

See you guys tomorrow!

No Cage Fitness or Tennis but Softball???

So, as you guys know, a couple of weeks ago I asked about doing something different with my fitness routine.  I was looking at either taking Cage Fitness or Tennis.  Unfortunately, neither one of those fit into my schedule with my son playing football.  But instead of not doing anything, I am playing co-ed softball.  The games are on Tuesday's which still interfere with football practice but I can make most of them because of the timing.  I've calcuated that I can burn about 350-375 calories during that hour.  I'm really excited about it since I haven't played in like 15+ years when my church back home use to play.  I'll report back to let you guys know how the season goes!  :)
