P90X - Day 23

March 12, 2012

Workout:

      The exercise schedule for this week has been mixed up a bit. According to Tony Horton by switching up your workouts occasionally it helps your body avoid plateaus and not get “bored.” Apparently our muscles actually have a type of memory and if you’re doing to same moves and workouts all the time it will actually impede your progress. So this week’s line-up looks like this:

• Monday - YOGA X
• Tuesday - Core Synergistic
• Wedsnesday - KENPO X
• Thursday - YOGA X
• Friday - Core Synergistic
• Saturday - KENPO X

My hubby was working from home today so I was able to make it for my Circuit class at the gym. 45 minutes of pushing, pulling, squatting, lunging and crunching. I really like this class because I am forced by the clock to get all my reps done in the 30 seconds allowed for each move

Diet:
     Did a little better today with my food, but I still let the chocolate cake call my name a little too loud and had a small piece. Lucky for me I don’t really care for store bought frosting so I always skip the edges that are covered in it. Here’s my food journal:
