P90X3 Classic Dynamix Calorie Burn

P90X3 Classic Dynamix Summary

Although P90X3 Classic Dynamix is a pretty relaxed routine, I can’t do the Pigeon properly so I usually bring up my leg and hold it there and settle into it as 1 rep instead of following along. I can do most of the other stuff OK but this is another good example of a workout I’d like a Trainer for so I can ask how to do or modify something.

P90X3 Classic Dynamix Notes

This was the start of a Quadruple workout day… I had a lot going on and I also had to workout, drive 3hrs roundtrip +1hr appointment out of town this morning and then workout. The idea was double in the AM and then double at night. Didn’t happen.

My rule is to try to sleep or at least break in between. I think Tony set P90X3 up with the rest periods in between exercises in mind. He mentions getting 7hrs of sleep. So I know by doing 2 workouts or more in a day, I risk compromising the formula.

On the other hand, in this case I need to stay on schedule and I am using the muscles for the exercises, and in order, but without rest I’m only getting a benefit of putting my body through the moves for muscle memory later. I am sacrificing muscle growth and probably some health but I hope not to get this far behind again although getting sick would take it out of my hands.

Anyway day 45 is next week and that will be halfway!

Since I have a desk job this is my only exercise so it’s not like I just got home from construction or stocking or something. So This morning I did Dynamix. I came home and slept and will see how the next 3 go. I wanted to do Dynamix with Eccentric Upper this morning but that didn’t workout. Then it would have been Triometrics and X3 Yoga as a double and that would be OK because you could theoretically add X3 Yoga anywhere you want.

It will still leave a double for tomorrow but I will limp through it if I have to because I want to finish in 90 days and as I say, I have a very non-demanding job and this is not like Army Basic Training or even Mr. Duffy’s 4hr Advanced Kenpo Classes that had 30+ minute workouts to start out. Or Kenpo Camp Saturdays which were 8 hours of work outdoors after an hour or so of PT to warm up… so with my experience I think I can handle this and then have 1 workout Saturday to get on track and then just Dynamix on Sunday to finish the week.
