MMX is AWESOME. I did most all of the moves and most of the reps I think. I was SOAKING WET. I was surprised I did so well. It is an Awesome module. I love it!

This week I’ll have to do a double so I may do something in 8 hours later tonight. I’m being careful not to overdo anything as I’ve had so much time off but I also need to burn a lot of calories and get all my parts moving again. I need to lose no less than 17lbs by Fri Nov 8. I have had a few streaks losing a pound a day recently when I was not working out. I gained much of them back but I’m still down 5lbs in the last 6 weeks or so.

Now that my diet is better, I hope I can get these 17 pounds off and add some muscle and then on the next pass of P90X3 I will expect some definition and to approach my target weight which will mean I need to lose about 20 pounds on that round also.

I’ll finish by this week this Sat, rest on Sun and Week 11 should start next Monday.

I didn’t wait a full 8 hours but I went to Gold’s Gym as a guest and did a circuit of everything but Abs. 3 sets of 8 mostly and I was SOAKING Wet, shaking and exhausted. It was Awesome. I think I had a very low risk of injury as I was using machines and I did not strain seriously on anything but today EVERY muscle in my body was worn out, maybe twice.

Sometime after MMX I noticed my abs were sore. MMX has no “ab routine” other than the sprawls which I didn’t do vigorously and which didn’t last long but that must have been it.

I see Eccentric Upper is next.  I thought it was Complex Upper, I’ll check the book. Complex Upper almost killed me last time. My son and I really brought it at a gym that had a Pull-Up assist machine. That was the hardest workout I had maybe ever done. I almost tossed my cookies. I don’t remember working that hard in US Army Basic Training.
