PX 90 week 3, 4, & 5

Monday 9/5 Day 16-  What a busy day here at the house. I putzed around between laundry, cleaning my bathroom, and 2 batches of cookies made. I even found the time to do Plyometrics with the boy. He showed improvement with it. I do enjoy it, however I stay on the low impact side of it as my knees hurt afterwards. May start some glucosemne to help with that. Even had the boy ride his bike while I walked the dog.

Tuesday 9/6 Day 17- Did my 3 mile run today. It went well. I was against a good headwind for the first half of it. I got it in before the rain hit! Time was normal. Only did half of the P90X this evening. Maybe that is part of the problem, I don't do so well if I wait until evening time to do it. Trying new ankle and knee strenghtening exercises the chiropractor showed me. Hopefully it's not raining too hard in the morning to run.

Wednesday 9/7 Day 18- 30 mintute tempo run and my body doesn't want to cooperate with me today. Everything feels stiff - Hell if anybody offered me a ride home today I would take it instead of finishing this misery! Since no one offered me a ride I better make this my bitch and finish it. That whole Yoga X thing- OMG! I just want it to be over, make the bad man stop. I have seen improvement on my form and endurance, so it's not all bad. Atleast that is what I keep telling myself.

Thursday 9/8 Day 19- Legs, Back & Ab Ripper- Feeling pretty good with this one. I could push more, but not feeling it today. Just get it done then on to my massage! Thank you honey I am sure I will enjoy it. And BTW I am skipping my run today. And that is the END of the 5 K program...Oh yeah.

Friday 9/9 Day 20- Kenpo X BABY...Can I do this one every week or instead of YOGA?

Saturday 9/10 Day 21- You would have thought I had busted out of prision and was on house arrest. I didn't leave, I ate everything bad, and I was HAPPY to do it. I played 4 hours of a video game, watched Diary of a Wimpy Kid with the boy and introduced him to Boyz in the Hood. Almost feel guilty for the lazyness.

Sunday 9/11 Day 22 - What a sad day as our nation mourns the 10 year anniversary of 9-11-01. Watched a few hours of the televised program and I am ignoring FB today (which is hard to do). Yoga X today. I am making the boy do it with me today, this helps him to limber up. As much as I hate to say it- I have noticed a big improvement in my ability to complete the program. Now if some of the poses didn't turn boy wonder into a gas machine I would be happy.

Monday  9/12 Day 23- First time for Core Synenergy- What a workout! Rolling Banana, Banana to Boat- the hour flew by

Tuesday 9/13 Day 24- KENPO X! It's a good day! Think I may have messed my left knee up, will pamper it for awhile. Will have to run tonight as well. Starting the 10k program today. Tried to run at the track, but however boys soccer was playing a game and couldn't use the track. Settled for a 2.25 mile run around the park while Buddy was at practice. Man could I tell I had been on a running hiatis for a week.

Wednesday 9/14 Day 25- 3.5 mile run. I did okay. I did push a little here and there and was an average in the 9's. Felt good about that. Did P90X Stretch. Goodworkout as well. Still trying to determine if knee is bad enough for a doctor.

Thursday 9/15 Day 26- Busy day gotta workout, walk the dog, and do a tremendous grocery store trip and bake lots of cupcakes! Today's workout was Synergystics- not too bad. Did better than the other day. Banana Roll and Banana Boat. Good thing I like Banana Republic too! No tempo run today, I really need to work that back in.

Friday 9/16 Day 27- Yoga, made it through 40 minutes. My time is pretty mashed today. Gotta give a little sometimes (and I prefer to give up when it comes to Yoga.). I have to decorate all those darn cupcakes.

Saturday 9/17 Day 28- 4 mile run. Believe it or not I actually ran with someone else! It was a nice steady jog. No P90X today and I am happy to report I did not have any of those cupcakes!

Sunday 9/18 Day 29- Just got so out of sync this morning.  It's my own fault.  My run started an hour late I was trying to fix the computer.  Run did go extremely well it was in the 9:20's.  The first half was in a good head wind and I had to fight it.  By the time I resolved the computer issues and walked the dog I had no energy left.  Only did 30 minutes of Chest & Arms and skipped Ab Ripper.  I may have to sit down, get the menu organized, and try to follow it.  Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow is only a day away...

Monday 9/19 Day 30- Haven't I said I love Plyometrics before?  If so-  I will say it again!  Also trying the meal plan today for better results.  I did discover they accidentally left 2 scoops of cookies and cream ice cream off the menu for the day, but don't worry I took the liberty of correcting that. 

Tuesday 9/20 Day 31- Back, Arm, & Bicep - I am a glamour girl!  Great workout.  Ab Ripper is showing a lot of improvement.  Ran at practice in the parking lot.  Not great times, but I did it. 

Wednesday 9/21 Day 32- Morning run- 3.25 miles.  Legs are really sore.  Not a great time but not disappointing time either.  A little Yoga scheduled for the afternoon.  Okay- Yoga not happening today.  My glutes are so tight.  I think a bath and R& R are in order.

Thursday 9/22 Day 33- Completed 35 minutes of Back & Legs.  I know, I know,  but somewhere I lost my mojo.  The good news is this afternoon more recovery drink was delivered.

Friday 9/23 Day 34- After a dismal 2 days of P90X I have redeemed myself with Kenpo X.  Love it!  Last day of the P90X for the week.  Almost halfway through the program, where has the time gone?

Saturday 9/24 Day 35- You really didn't think those 5 miles were gonna run themselves this morning did you?  It was a good run in the warm drizzle.  Avg. 9:36 per minute.  Love it!  Note: When its sprinkling/raining I put a baggie around my phone to keep it dry.  I can still hear runkeeper and the music.  And it's gonna be a little drizzle for football today- oh hells yeah!

Sunday 9/25 Day 36- Had a horrible headache last night that left me apprehensive about its return this morning.  It was a slow run, but you know what.. I ran it!  It was just how I like cupcakes light with sprinkles...Finished the Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, and Ab Ripper.  Really it shold be named Push-up. Push-up, and more push-up....Now for some NFL time.
