The Transformation Begins
I am happy to report that I started P90X on Saturday! Only two days into it and I am extremely sore. It must be working!
Here are my starting body measurements and fitness test results so you can see my progress. I will post my before and after picture once I finish phase 1 (30 days).
Body Measurements
weight: 130.4
Waist 32
Hips 36
Chest 33
R/L Arm 11.5
R/L Thigh 22.5
Body Fat 26.3%
Test Results
Pull Ups (palms in) 2
Pull Ups (palms out) 1
Vertical Leap 12
Push ups from Toes 25
Inches from Toes -4 (means I cannot touch my toes!)
Ins & Outs 35
Wall Squats 1 min 11 sec
Arm Curls 12lbs/13 reps
Overview
Day 1 is Chest and Back. During this exercise you do different variations of push ups, pull ups and weight lifting. I burned 1527 calories for the entire day; however, I only wore the Bodybugg during this workout. My Bodybugg wasn't working right so I am not sure how many were burned during this specific workout. At my peak, I burned 5 calories per second.
Day 2. I didn't leave myself enough time on Saturday to do Ab X so I added it to today's workout. Ab X is all out the abs and strengthening of your core. Even though this workout is only 15 minutes, the moves are designed to make your abs burn.
Day 2 is Plyometrics. Going into this workout I had no idea what to expect. Let me tell you, this workout is gut wrenching! Tony has you do lunges, squat jacks, heismans, frog jumps and other moves similar to what you do in the Insanity program. By the end of the 58 minute workout I was exhausted and could hardly move. I have burned 1434 calories so far today. Bodybugg projects that if I am sedentary for the remainder of today I will burn around 1700 calories. At my peak, I burned 6.4 calories per second.
Tomorrow is Shoulders & Arms and Ab X.
