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 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!

Day 1: P90x/Insanity Hybrid - Chest/Back and ARX

Well since I didn't complete my Day 1 - chest/back and ab ripper x yesterday, I got up this morning and did it.  It's been awhile since I've done this dvd, so I know I'm going to be sore tomorrow.  I guess my scores are alright but I know I did what Tony says not to do - stop to early.  For most of the exercises, I stopped way before the time was over.  I just wanted to give myself a base today to see where I'm at by not over doing it.  I have listed the move and then how many reps I completed in each round.

Standard push ups - 25 / 22
Wide pull ups - 4 / 4
Military push up - 15 / 17
Chin ups - 5 / 5

How I Did For The Week of 8/15

So, below are my goals from last week.  I'm here to share how I did, so here goes......

1. Work out at least 5 times this week. I'm not currently following an actual program right now as I'm getting back into the groove.
Complete by 8/20
I was able to accomplish this goal.  Even started back running last week, so I'm excited about that.

2. Complete a food diary at least 5 times this week. Knowing what you eat each day is a vital part to any weight loss journey.
Complete by 8/20
I was able to accomplish this goal.  This was important since the few weeks prior I was eating whatever I wanted.  I was able to get my eating habits under better control this week.

3. Spend time every day in prayer and devotion. I've learned over the last couple of months that when I begin my day with prayer and devotion, it's much easier to get through the day. Spending time with God is AWESOME!
Complete by 8/20
I was able to accomplish this goal.  What a great way to start off my day!  God is awesome and continues to bless me and my family!

4. Connect w/ my S2S teammates at least 3 times this week. This helps keep each other motivated and accountable.
Complete by 8/20
I was able to accomplish this goal.  I know that my teammates are busy, but I wanted to let them know that I was thinking about them.

5. Read at least 10 pages of personal development every day.
Complete by 8/20
I did not accomplish this goal.  This will be back on my goal list for this week.  Personal development is very important when you want to better yourself and succeed.

6. Follow up with my Beachbody customers to make sure that I'm doing all they need from me as well as make sure that they are moving along their journey.
Complete by 8/20
I was able to accomplish this goal.  It was great connecting with my customers and seeing what they are up to.

I have to say that I had a pretty good week.  I definitely need to work on the personal development piece this week.  Be on the look out tomorrow for my goals for the upcoming week.

It's FRIDAY!!!!

Today was Day 5 of the P90x/Insanity hybrid. I'm almost a week in and I absolutely love this hybrid! My workout consisted of Legs & Back and Insane Abs. OMG!  I forgot how CRA-ZEE insane abs was!  My whole core was burning!.  I decided to add in some cardio - TF HIIT 20.  I just love the energy and movitation that Chalene Johnson has.  My legs have been on FIYAH all day from these workouts, plus the fact I've been walking up and down my steps.  WHEW!  NO MORE EXCUSES!  Get your body moving!

OAN:  I'll be glad when I finally hit the bed tonight.

Day 2 of Shakeology Cleanse

Well, I know it's actually not Day 2 but I'm posting for yesterday.  I will then post my Day 3 tonight.

So.....yesterday was Day 2.  Everything went well.  I ate everything that I was supposed to - 3 shakes, 2 pieces of fruit, 2 cups of tea, a chicken salad and almost 4 liters of H2O.  I did get tempted though.  My sister and I went to the mall to spend some sibling time together.  We went into one of the stores that had candy, snacks, etc.  As we were walking around the store, I had to keep looking in the other direction. Twizzlers...Twix....Potato Chips....Cereal.  "Oh, Nikki....come and buy us!"  LOL!  All of this was thrown right in my face.  How was I going to react?  Keep walking!  I am so proud of myself for not indulging.  I'm focused to do what I need to do. 

People always ask - How did you feel?  Were you full?  Well I can tell you that I didn't have any headaches or stomach cramps from being hungry.  I love the shakes because you can make them thick and they are so filling. Normally, an hour after I eat, I'm ready to grab a snack. Not with Shakeology baby!  I also had plenty of energy throughout the day.  No plateaus or feeling like I needed a nap.

Day 3 and results, HERE I COME!

First Day of 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse

My girlfriends from back home came into town this past weekend for the CIAA tournament in Charlotte.  We had such a blast!  While they were here, I endulged in things that I shouldn't have....ooops!  But that only makes me human, right?  Then I spent the day in the hospital on Monday to have a procedure completed.  Normally, you can pick your own meals in the hospital but because I was out, they decided to choose for me.  Needless to say because I was so hungry when I came out, I just ate what they gave me.  With that being said, I gained some weight.  UGH!  I knew the consequences.  So I decide to take on the Shakeology 3 Day Cleanse to get me back to where I was pre-weekend events.

Today was my first day.  I started the day with a cup of tea.  For breakfast, it was a Shakeology Shake with mixed berries.  I had an orange for my morning snack.  Lunch was another Shake with a cup of tea.  My afternoon snack was a Shake with an apple.  Dinner was rounded out with a chicken salad...yummy!  At the time of this blog, I've drank almost 128oz of H2O

Well I made it thru the first day. I wasn't sure if I would or not.  Day 1 down, 2 more to go.
