See Sandye you are doing Classic, and HIIT too you're a mad woman, don't throw up!

Meowmix - As long as you're not bored, lol, that's the main thing.

iDream 10-05-2009 06:19 PM

Tummy~ haha, I just might!!! Actually, I was trying to figure out what days to do HIIT and what days to get my 3 mile runs in...I'm thinking I should do my 3 miles on Mon, Wed & Fri (as much as I love running on Saturdays) because for the most part those are they days my legs will be less worked with P90X. I mean, I just don't know if I can run the same day as doing Plyometrics! :eek: (and you've convinced me to stick with the Classic--thanks a whole lot you wicked drill sgt you!! :drill: :lol:) Or maybe I should do it M, W & S? Ack! I'm so conflicted!!!!

I need to hurry up and make up my mind--hubby will be home in about an hour and I'll need to know which workout to do! :lol:

Tummy Girl 10-05-2009 06:37 PM

Sandye - I sometimes do HIIT on my Plyo days, it's hard and I stopped for a bit and just did it on Th and Sat so I didn't kill myself. I find that whatever cardio I do the harderst stuff should be M, W, F because they go with resistance days. However, kenpo isn't too hard once you're used to it so getting in extra that day is no problem. Yoga is also easy to add cardio too but it's really long so it all depends on your time restraints. LOL, glad you decided on one of them at least, I'd just hate to see you lean out more, hubby won't know where to find you anymore. And I have no doubt inches will still come off, especially with the Ripper!

Tummy~ well, I went ahead and ran my 3 miles tonight--it just made sense to do it today rather than attempt it tomorrow. HIIT is my 'easy' cardio now--funny huh? I remember when I first started it and it was super challenging! :) The body is a marvelous thing isn't it? I don't really want to get smaller--just tone up all the wobbly stuff--which will make me smaller I guess, but I'm not looking to lose any more (well, besides the weight I gained this weekend ;))--but you know what I mean. ;)

For everyone who cut and pasted my dates--Oops! I forgot the 6th!!! :lol: Sorry about that girls!! :)

Tummy~ OUCH!! Owie, owie, ouch-ouch-ouch!!! For the love of Peter, Paul and Mary!! I started feeling a little soreness in my chest last night, but today--:eek: Holy cow!! And to think, while I was doing that workout yesterday I was thinking, 'this isn't too horrible, I'll eventually get the hang of push ups, but he pull ups are easy peasy' :lol3: silly, silly, stupid me! Oh my shoulders and my chest and my ABS!!! I haven't been this sore in ages!!! I don't think I was ever this sore with my old routine--proof positive I needed a change huh? Plyo was intense and FUN!!! I don't have a mat though and I was trying to use my yoga mat and nearly fell on my face when I tripped on it!! So, I pitched it to the side and just did the workout on the concrete. Then I wacked my leg on the stool doing those cross over thingies--I'm sure I'll be sportin' a bruise in no time! :lol: So glad I bought this!! Thank you for all your help on everything!!! :)

Tummy Girl 10-06-2009 09:46 AM

Sandye - I was thinking this morning that plyo first, then hiit would be better than the way I was doing it. B/c like you, my HIIT is easy cardio now :lol3: The way I was doing it I was getting pretty popped out by the time it was afternoon and plyo time. Today, I woke up at 5:30a to do plyo first since dd is starting to get sketchy with her afternoon nap and interrupt the workouts. I imagine, I'll have more than enough energy to do HIIT later today. Glad you loved it, I found the sore muscles the same, it hurts less each week although you get this general stifness by week 3 then recovery week and it all fads away, then you switch some of the resistance workouts and you start feeling it all over again, ie where I'm at now. It's awesome!

Oct. 1 - 30DS 28 minutes; Yoga (p90x) 90 minutes (118)
Oct. 2 - Running 91 minutes; Legs and Back (p90x) 60 minutes; Abs (p90x) 17 minutes (168)
