P90X - Day 18

March 7, 2012

Workout:
     This morning I started my day off at the gym. I did a whole 35 minute session on the ARC trainer elliptical machine on an interval setting. It was exhausting but I feel so good right now. The machine says I burned 450 calories!
     This afternoon was arms & shoulders. Today I moved out of the 5lb dumbbells for my triceps moves and into the 8lb ones - This is great, cause anything triceps is done with light weights and that means I am moving up in the world! I was also able to do 25 chair dips with 1 leg straight which is an improvement from my bent knees :-) The curls were super hard today because I choose to up my weights to 20 lbs! I'm feeling stronger every time I do my routines and it feels wonderful!

Diet:
     I made OK choices today. We had breakfast for dinner which destroyed my plan to only have protein prior to bed, but it was yummy and the extra carbs were probably needed since I did 2 workouts today. Here's my journal.
