Yeah, I know I didn't say much about finishing up the P90X Lean program, but we really did get all the way through. Well, almost. We didn't do much that last recovery week, but that's OK, because we were just mentally gearing up to properly attack our new program... P90X Classic!
Although, it's really more like P90X-Lower Body. I've shuffled the program around a bit to include more Legs and Back and more Core Synergistics, and less upper body. So it's going to go a little something like this:
Week 1:
- Tues: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper
- Weds: Plyo (can't wait!)
- Thurs: Shoulders & Arms + Ab Ripper
- Fri: Yoga X
- Sat: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper
- Sun: Kenpo X
Why are we doing this, you might ask? Because while we appreciate how important building our upper body strength is, both of us have much more need of leg strength and core strength... Me for my running, Big E for his ultimate. We discussed this at length and figured that the P90X program seemed a bit more geared towards having a pretty, beach-ready body with huge guns and sexy triceps, which is great and all. But we really care more about having really strong abs, strong legs and while looking good in a bathing suit would be great, it's more of an added bonus and less our goal.
When do we start our P90X-Lower? This coming Tuesday. And yes I'll be attempting a nutrition plan again (but remind me to tell you later about the awesome healthy energy cookies I made last week!). We'll also be measuring our results this Sunday so we'll keep you posted!
