Begin week 4. Excited to start this final week of Phase 1. I will most likely not be doing a Recovery week in between Phase 1 and 2 as it is optional per the P90X2 schedule. I don’t feel like I will need it after this Phase. So next week comes Phase 2!

Day 22 – X2 Core – I’d be lying if I said I was pumped up for today’s P90X2 workout. I have yet to miss a workout nor do I have an excuse to miss one so I was not going to skip it. I just wasn’t “feeling it” today. Nonetheless I pushed play and had a good workout. Still showing an improvement and lessened my foot taps today.

X2 Core Stats:
Workout Duration: 51:54
Calories Burned: 617

Day 23 – Plyocide – My goal today was to push harder than I had the last time. I did pretty good today and it felt great to get this one in. Plyocide is not that long of a workout, in terms of the amount of time you are actually working out. This is another one of my favorite workouts.

Workout Duration: 51:56
Calories Burned: 714

Day 24 – X2 Total Body – Total body continues to be an awesome workout. We hit all the major muscle groups and of course we use the stability ball. I kept with what I did last week and this week was a bit easier compare to last week. In hind site I should of upped the ante today. Even so I got a good burn and it felt good to get it done today.

X2 Total Body Stats:
Workout Duration: 63:43
Calories Burned: 770

Day 25 – X2 Yoga – NOT! No disrespect to any yoga lover’s out there, but I just can’t get around to liking yoga. So instead ZI stuck with an Insanity Workout. I went with Core Cardio and Balance as it’s one of my favorites. It’s the one cardio workout per week I get so Insanity seemed to be the way to go.

Core Cardio And Balance:
Workout Duration: 37:12
Calories Burned: 620

Day 26-28 – Sick – I caught the bug that was going around my household and was way to sick and weak to do X2 Total Body.

Week in Review:
Started this week off on the right foot, ended badly. I started the week with my shoulder and hamstring pains pretty much gone. Two days this week I had one of my daughter’s home from school with a virus going around. I was fortunate not to catch it until the end of the week. Thursday night it hit me pretty hard. It wiped me out completely for 24 hours. Knowing I was transitioning into Phase 2 Monday I didn’t want to do a workout on Sunday when I started to feel better, so I just took those days off to re-coop. Monday I will be starting Phase 2 and I’m pretty excited about it. I’m ready for some more strength training in my workouts. Stay tuned…
