We are doing the Classic P90X program. However, the first week's workouts are a bit out of order since we started on a Tuesday, but plan on starting next Monday with Day 8.
Day 1
To say I am not a morning person would be an understatement. I need at least 8 hours of sleep to feel rested and on the weekends I tend to sleep for 10 hours. The alarm went off at 5:30 am. I immediately thought I was going to quit on day 1. Luckily I have a very encouraging husband who basically told me that I better be out of bed by the time he got back from letting the dog out. I was praying our dog Monday would take her time. Before I knew what I was doing, I robotic-ly rolled out of bed, changed clothes, brushed my teeth, and was out the door. Now for this "workout."
We made our way over to our fitness center and set up shop between two of the lat pull down cable machines since we did not purchase a pull up bar and it was "chest and back" day. Once the laptop was ready to roll, we started our warm up. WOW, is this guy annoying or what?! Who talks like that? Shakers? I mean seriously, I like the encouragement and all, but his catch phrases are annoying already and it's only day 1. I always thought I could do my fair share of push ups, but after an hour of 6 different ways to do a pull up and push up I was flopped on the ground. ...which accidentally got me prepared for the Ab Ripper.
Unfortunately for Luke, he had to hop in the shower and head off to work. Me on the other hand? I crawled back into bed and woke up at 9 am - SORE. Really? I finished the workout 2 hours ago and I am already sore? Pulling the refrigerator door was painful - so maybe that's how they help you control your eating...
