Power 90 - Day 2

Totally underestimated today's workout - and that's an understatement.  When I watched the vid earlier it didn't look like the workout was going to be that big a deal.  I watched and never winced once.  Where every time I watched a Tae Bo Boot Camp vid, I winced through the entire thing.  So, the Power 90 In-Home Boot Camp sweat day was going to be nothing.  Ha!  The joke was on me.


I lost track how many times I had to hit the pause button because I was going at it too hard.  Glad I was alone because it was beginning to get embarrassing.


Another shocker was it's the first time I had chest pains when working out.  I slowed down considerably after that.  Kinda freaked me out.  

Any who, really liked the power yoga part & of course the "martial arts" part.  Power yoga showed me how inflexible I've allowed myself to become again.  Martial arts?  Bang on.  : ) 

Gave myself a 10 for today's workout.  I gave it my best and learned a lot about the shape my body is in.  I've obviously not been pushing hard enough in my own made-up workouts with my: total gym, gazelle, medicine ball and kettlebells.  Wait! Correct that.  Aerobically I haven't been going at it hard enough or at least not hard enough to keep up with the sweat vid for Power 90.

Also, left out what I learned yesterday about eating.  Going back to the P90x chart to track my food, & eating 3 snacks/day, not 2.  It should make a big difference & I won't overeat.  : )


So, tomorrow's workout is back to sculpting.  Note to self:  Keep watching that form.  Slow down. Focus. Breathe.  : )
