I want to note that CVX has no warmup routine. It just starts with Press-Jacks which have not “torn” my chest since perhaps Week 2 or maybe sooner. I meant to log that somewhere.

I was STARVING because I mis-managed my morning. I was worried I could not bring it. I did not do it before bed last night because I would have slept-walked through it and wasted the time. So tonight I have to do X3 Yoga without 7hrs sleep in between. I may catch a nap but I doubt it because I’m very awake now!

I brought it!
Used 8lb dumbbell for the whole workout.
Maintained Good Form.
Ended up soaking wet!

I really wish I had video of this workout. Ugh. Maybe soon I will figure out how to get my iPhone or something set on a Tripod and where and how to save the video and maybe even edit it and post a clip or two.

I have to do X3 Yoga tonight without 7hrs sleep in between. But I finished with X3 Ab Ripper. I didn’t do great but logged that I burned 88 calories. I can do most of that routine but I’m not sure for example what C-Y Reach is supposed to feel like or if I’m doing some of the other routines right. Like Tin Man Windmill.

Then tomorrow is Dynamix, the end of Block 1, Pix and Measurements!

ADDENDUM

While I was not getting in any sleep before X3 Yoga… I took my youngest son to the gym and went ahead and did 3 sets on the Assisted Pull Up Machine, using at least 3 grips for at least 2 reps in each set. One set had 4 grips, one had 5, one had 3 reps each for 9 or 12 pull ups and one had 5 reps each for at least 15 pull ups.

Then I went to the Leg Press Machine and did 3 sets of 8 and could feel it so while I didn’t use a lot of weight, it was a good 3 sets of 8 and when I go back to the gym.

I think I’ve confirmed that I will supplement Pull-Ups and Leg work at the gym as my home pull-up method is lacking and I think P90X3 may lack leg development at least leg development I can crush.

On days when we are doing pull-ups or full body I will seek to add X3 Ab Ripper, Pull-ups at the Gym and Legs at the Gym. Because on The Challenge for example, my pull-ups were lame and extra reps on a proper assist machine should be a very good supplement.

If I still had a Total Gym, I could also use that for both Pull-Ups and Legs and I may look into that. I do think a Pull-Up assist band would be good if I had a solid pull-up bar. I am not sure I’d want to use it on the ones you hang on the door frame like I’m using now.

26 Days down. 64 to go!!!

Day 90 is a REST day.

Day 91 is the Final Fit Test and After Photos.
