day 39 I think we did back and Biceps. We took the kids to the swimming pool for about 4 hours and then went home to work out. I did my best.... I was very drained... Caught my second wind later in the evening so we took a walk around the neighborhood. Very peaceful day.

Well today was the 1st day we really broke our diet. It was my wife's birthday and so we made pizza, and had cake. 1 day shouldn't kill us. :)

Looking forward to the new workout tonight.

Keep it up everyone.

Back and Biceps?? Happy Birthday Mrs Havok ... just what you always wanted for Birthday

I have had a few cheat days. i am trying to limit to once a week ... but I get that angry regret feeling too when I do break it.

Well done Ang ... keep it going ... Day 39 ... almost half way matey and just 2 and a bit weeks away from eating some Carbs

Day 32:

Yoga X

Getting better with the Crane in that I can get one foot off the floor.

Starting to do Table and the Shoulder Stands.

I love to get all those Vinyasa exercises out the way. Half moon etc. The bit where Tony says 'that's the hard part out the way ... kinda'. that gives me a second wind

Diet's going well.

Feeling good today.

Keep bringing it ... esp you Yoga-haters!!

2nd phase is going well. The new workouts shake you up as they are different. Look for the Plyo Push Up, One Arm P)ush Up, corn Cob Chin Ups.

I have found Yoga and AbRipperX easier. The former from having done it twice last week. The latter benefited from the Core sessions, in my opinion.

Look forward to the pics

I have enjoyed following your thread. I am five days behind you guys and check in on what is going on with your posts. Helps me mentally prepare for the pending pain. Lol....

My wife just started this week and is enjoying it!

angelinamiller75...your 30 day results look great!!!!!

Keep pushing it!

JB

Day 33:

Legs and back and AbRipperX

Was very hyper after Yoga yesterday. Felt very relaxed and positive ... but then I woke up this morning and felt shattered

So I really had to push myself ... but once again I feel it was worth it as I feel good. It's like P90x wakes me up.

Did better at all exercises. I was able to use the Bowflex's on the legs for the first time and that added to the session.

I think having not done the leg exercises in 2 weeks made it feel like a whole new session. I guess that's what they mean by muscle confusion.

Diet ... all good.

We had to skip our workout last night, due to a previous engamgement, so we'll be making it up on Sunday. We wanted to go the local 4th celebration tonight so we did Legs and Back early. Its quite a different experience when the kids are awake and asking a ton of question while we're trying to work out. But we got through it. I actually did 5 unassisted pullups. So that was a bit accomplishment for me. Now grated they weren't all at one time, but I'm getting there.

Hope everyone has a good holiday, for those of us celebrating. Sorry Mig, no day off work for you.

Keep bringing it guys.

Cheers for thinking of me Havok

Happy Independence Day folks ... even if your guy beat our guy in the tennis today

I take it this is a big eating festival out there? A cheat day for a few of you? What kind of things do you have for it?

Day 34:

KenpoX

As mentioned before I love this session. My favorite out of the P90x dvd's.

Had my weekly cheat day yesterday ... and felt awful. Not just the guilt but also felt lethargic when I woke up. I feel that's a good sign though.

Anyway KenpoX felt great and has put me right.

Today I felt like I was punching and kicking better. Finally know when to look back and forward for the knuckles, front kick, back kick routine.

Even my jumping jacks and x moves were better.

Good session.

Have a great 4th July folks.

Day 36:

What a struggle today was ... but I still got there.

I didn't want to get up this morning and have felt lethargic all day.

I was naughty yesterday and had some Chinese. Not good. I will now not have another cheat day for 2 weeks.

Chest Shoulders and Tri's

Was able to get through more exercises. Plyo push up and One Arm push ups are still a no-no for me.

AbripperX

Not as good as last weeks improvements but I was starting to feel shattered at the end of this one.


Not great ... but still pushed play which is the main thing.

Yeah today was rough around here as well. I had the day off and worked around the house all day. So when it was time to work out I was pooped from the chores I'd been doing. I sucked it up and finished, but it was a rough one.

Well hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Keep it up guys.

Well done Havok for bringing it. It's these harder days that will bring the results that we dream of.

Day 37:

Plyo

Always glad to get this one out of the way.

Was hard as I didn't sleep too well ... but I felt I made some advances on this session.

I work out in the garage and the washing machine was on ... how to add heat to a sweaty workout!!!

Diet has been on point since my Sunday blowout ... but early days

Keep pressing play!!

I am still pressing play! My diet has went down hill. I plan to get back on the wagon in phase 3.

Hi Angie

Think we have all had a few sins but have got back on the horse. Was it the July 4th celebrations?

Mig

Thanks for the heads up Mig

So i started phase 2 yesterday with Chest, shoulders, Tri's and I dont think it was a bad start at all. There is quite a variation from phase 1 and of all the exercises, one arm push up was the toughest (2 push ups only)..

ABX- did 320 and felt awesmoe, but still struggling with fifer scissors, just can't hold on to it..

Diet is going well, except few cheat days here and there :-D

I want to post after pics but I accidentally deleted my before pics stored on the phone but for sure i can see the results...

PS: I just bought Powerblock Dumbbells ranging from 5LB-50LB for $CDN 320- I'd highly recommend it if your planning to buy more weights.

Brint it pals!

Plyo was good tonight. We tried to keep up with Tony and crew and wow did we have a good workout. I don't think I've ever sweat so hard. But it felt good.

I could have use a double of recover drink tonight.

Ang, we all have those days. This afternoon I was so hungry and I was out of snacks at my desk. I ended up bumb'n a protein bar from my buddy and having a few woppers.

Keep up the good work guys and gal..

Finished with Backs and Biceps in the morning and I think I am really loving the workout,I could feel the burn as I have started to increase the weights in Phase 2..

ABX- will do in the evening.

Diet's been good today- 4 egg whites and vegie's, wheat muffin, recovery drink, protein shake, cottage cheese and mandarins and its only 12:45PM.

Burn it!
