Wed - Rest day, musings about p90x

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I took a rest morning today b/c I'm feeling under the

weather with this darned cold and I want to fight it

off and get rid of it. I felt pretty crappy last

night and during the night, so I though sleeping in

would be a good idea - trouble is DD woke up at 5:15 -

ugh! I tried to convince her to lay in bed with me,

but that lasted only about 10-15 minutes. Oh well.

If I feel up to it tonight I may get Back & Biceps

done, if not, I'll re-schedule it for tomorrow.

Now, on to my musing about p90x - I do think it is a

good program and I would like to get some of the

workouts at some time, but after doing this rotation,

I'm not sure that I like this structure - I don't

think I like splitting body parts as they do - it just

doesn't work for me. I actually prefer total body

workouts, and, at best, if I do a split I prefer it to

be more general - such as " upper body " " lower body "

and " core " I don't really feel a great need to spend

an hour working biceps and back or chest and back

only. I feel that I could get a decent overall upper

body workout done in an hour that hits it all. I guess

I'm just not a " body building " type or something like

that. And, it is just personally hard for me to stick

to a rotation like this b/c if I have to miss a day

I'm always scrambling as to how to " make it up " and

" get it done " That said, I really do like many of the

workouts in this set and would love to acquire my

favorites at some point. I think BeachBody's pricing

on individual workouts isn't great though - but maybe

I can try the trade boards or e-bay. The ones I'd

most like to have are PlyoX, Kenpo, CardioX, Core

Synergistics, Legs & Back. I wouldn't mind having the

stretch one, or the yoga one (although I never

actually did the yoga one - I would give it a try at

some point if I got back to more regular yoga

practices). I liked the upper body workouts, they all

just seemed too specific for me and my rotational

needs at this point. If anyone would like to split an

P90X order in the future, let me know, we can divide

them up!

I wonder if the p90X plus set would be better for me?

I only skimmed the info on on it - but i wonder if it

is divided more into total body workouts than p90x?

I'm also curious about the Masters series as that also

seems to be more focused on total body workouts or, at

least, more general splits.

Anyway, that is my rambling for the day!

Take care,

Donna
