It is week two of my journey into P90x for the umpteen time I have started.  I have me a workout partner now.  He decided to go to California (San Diego) and leave me hanging to do the workouts.

Now, I own a small women’s fitness studio where I teach quit a few body toning classes anyhow and so trying to keep the energy and motivation up for my P90x is hard.  Just wanted you to know that so you won’t think I am a weakling.  :) 

So, I managed to get up enough motivation to do the legs and back routine, which I knew was going to be a hard one, so that is why it took me a while to get it done. 

I really love this workout.  It is extremely exhausting especially if you give it all you got.  Getting low, pushing through the heels on the squats, staying on the toes on the sneaky lunges, going lower on the wall sits, pulling and squeezing every ounce in your body on the back exercises.  Whew, getting exhausted telling you about it all.

My booty is sore today.  My back is still there but I need to stretch it today.  Been working back hard this week. 

Legs and back, you have to give a try.  You will like it.

“A year from now you’ll wish you had started today.”

I mentioned last time that I would get back with you on how it went with the Super Cardio 5-6 Plus.

Okay, so I watched the video and thought this would be great to try on my class and see how they do.  WOW!  When I was watching Tony do his exercises he seemed to get winded really fast and he wasn’t really doing anything to hard compared to say the Plyometrics on P90x.  So, I thought I would just add 15 seconds of jumping jacks in between the little 30 seconds exercises. 

He has three segments on this dvd.  The famous squat and turn, I have a kid who really loves this exercise and I told him to keep it low and not jump because he has to do this 3 times.  Well, just like a meat head he goes all out.  He is huffing and puffing by the end of section 1.  I then tell the class to do jacks, then the next exercise is a lunge and reach, well again add a little plyo jump there and you have your heart rate going crazy.  30 seconds doing jacks and the squat kicks.  No time for break.  Tony however takes a little break for some water.  No water break until all 3 segments are complete.  Yes folks, they were huffing and puffing and they still have 2 more sections to go.

Now, this Super Cardio is only 35 minutes long.  Well, I add the Killer ABs from the One on One dvd.  Had to get those abs in.  They loved it.  Well, maybe I loved hearing them moan.  HA!  280 reps of crunches total.  They should be hurting today.

Oh, by the way, I had a soccer player in the class and he ran three miles before coming to class.  He was hurting.  I tell those people not to really exert themselves before they come to class because they will not have anything left to do the class because Tony doe not call it extreme for nothing people. 

Make sure you have your water and towel when doing thise exercises.  Burn those calories. Not sure how many it burned because I was busy with the stop watch and busy keeping everyone motivated.  Next time I will do the whole thing, maybe I will leave out the jacks. HA Not a chance.  Come on you have to push it.

“A year from now, you’ll wish you had started today”

Can not believe that 2009 is upon me.  It has been a crazy year.  I am putting 2008 out the window and hope the Texas wind doesn’t bring it back.  I am ready for a great 2009.  I am tired on being broke and I am tired of being the same weight for the past 5 years.  I can go down, but then my body likes to go back where it is confrontable.  Well, I have news for the body.  Next year in about 4 hours, I have something else in mind.  I plan on making a plan and completing my P90x and the upgrade.  Workout to the new Chalean Extreme Workout program.  View a couple of more tapes, get my bio down for a company that is waiting for me to get my crap together, focus on marketing the studio more and beachbody stuff and the list goes on.  This year I am not going to slack and let the days leave me behind.

With that being said, tomorrow I have the review on Tony’s holiday treat in which I watched the other day and I think tomorrow as a Post Holiday Recovery Workout I will do that one.  Not too long of a workout.

I want to wish all of my followers a Happy New Year and let’s bring it for 2009.

I know it has been a while since I have posted.  I am an Adjunct Professor for two colleges here in town and the semester is long.  Seems like I don’t have time to get on my computer and post anything.  My computer also decided to start slowing down and doing all kinds of funny things, so I had to have it checked out.

About two weeks ago I ordered my P90X t-shirt and some Protein Bars.  I received them about a week ago.  The protein bars I ordered were the new Cafe Mocha.  They are AWESOME!  My hubby even likes them, if you can believe that, he is not one to get into things like that.  I do know that they give me energy and have really helped with my performance. 

I started a new class late at night and I actually eat the protein bar in the morning but it seems to last throughout the day.  I am going to order some more Cafe Mocha and the Wildberry.  The NEW protein bar is peanut butter.  Now, I do like peanut butter but I get a little funny when it comes to protein bars, sometimes the peanut butter overwhelms the bar and it tends to get a little gritty.  I will definitely try them but not right now, probably when I get tired of the Cafe Mocha bars.

I have also ordered the P90X Peak Health Formula multivitamin.  My hubby takes those too in the morning to get him through the day.  I have also taken those and I too like them.

I bet when they do the autopsy on me they will find all kinds of P90X stuff in me.

I have also tried the Slimming Formula and I take the Performance Supplement.  Geezzzzz!

i love these products.

I am anxiously waiting for the mailman to bring me my new DVD on Tony Horton’s One-on-One Training DVD.  This new one is suppose to be “Just Arms.”  I can’t wait.  I don’t know why.  I guess it takes a while for each to come in.  Seems like it gets later and later in the month to get here.  Oh well, it is not like I don’t have enough to keep me busy.

I like it when new stuff comes in the mail.  It is like Christmas each month.  I am addicted to new and exciting workouts.  I love challenging myself.  I can only take so much, but I love it.

I am thinking about uprgrading my P90X or should I say incorporating the Plus system with the P90X.  Tony has come out with P90X Plus.  It has 4 additional DVD’s with 5 extreme workouts.  I am thinking about purchasing that real soon. 

Now, I have to say that I love BeachBody products.  One because they are affordable.  Second, the experts are really cool people.  I have met just two of them and I think they are great.  They know what they are doing.  Carl Daikeler  Co-Founder/CEO of Beachbody really know how to pick the experts. I am impressed.

The 10 Minute Trainer has some really good exercises on it too.  I will get that next as well.

If you want to get those DVD’s or any of Tony’s DVD’s at a discount.  Be a coach.  Go to milliondollarbody.com and sign up to be a coach.  It is well worth the discount that you will pay.  Sign up under me (pkayfit) and let’s become a team and get people motivated to workout.  This epidemic we are facing is really getting out of hand.  The epidemic itself.  I look around all the time and can not believe my eyes.

I will be back with what I think of the new DVD if I ever get it in the mail.

Have a great workout.  ;)  Always Bring It!

If Tony is a little extreme for you.  I will post another workout system that is awesome also.  These experts are going crazy with all this old school stuff that they are bringing back.  Things I did back in the 80’s just alittle more upgraded.  I love it.

It is Saturday and I have been sticking to the Eating Plan pretty good.  I have the plan on the fridge and each day I tape a new one on the fridge.  

Did I reach my goal like I wanted?  No!  I did however drop 5 lbs and within a 1/2.  So, I lost 1 1/2 inches.

I started out the week good and ran on Monday and did my Turbo on Tuesday and Wednesday I just could not get the cardio in due to putting in Lowe’s blinds.  Thursday my sinuses started running and hit me like

this boulder right in the head.  I was pretty much on the couch most of the day and I did not get to do my Turbo or teach my class.  So, I took some of my Detox tea with some lemon juice and honey.  That seemed to do the trick.  Yesterday was OK. I still kept to my eating plan.

Today, I feel like I could go pretty good.  I should be on the treadmill right now, but instead I am writing this blog.  I have to stay with it if I want to see improvement.

I will run for about 45 to an hour and then I have to do my biceps and back.  I have been slackin on the P90x.  I feel bad.  Go to do it no holding back and NO EXCUSES! 

If you want it, you have to work for it.
