P90X - Plyometrics - Day 2

Man-O-Manechevitz!!! ( I know that it's spelled Manischewitz) lol


The key word for today.... INTENSITY!!!!

I brought the guns with me today... I made sure I lifted higher... pushed myself a little bit more.

And felt the difference.... At the 24 minute mark... I thought that I was gonna hurl... FOR REAL!

Then I remember when Tony, at the beginning of the video, said... GET YA BUCKET!

I truly know what he meant by that now.

But do I ever feel wonderful!!!!

P90X - Classic - Char's Day 18

Curses, Curses, Curses....

***CHARPOWERFITNESS MINI CONFESSIONAL***

My eyes opened at 5:20AM.... Alarm blaring in the next room...

I looked over to my right to see if that mule that was there a couple of weeks ago had passed out from the exhaustion that he must be experiencing from kicking me in the head. He couldn't be found.

I got out of the bed... trudged to the bathroom to find the alarm clock

and... And... AND...

I PRESSED THE SNOOZE BUTTON!!!!!!!!!!!

*GASP*

Got right back in my bed (then I got right out of it three minutes later out of guilt)

Popped Yoga X in and... PRESSED PLAY.

Where is a Topamax when ya need one!

I only made it to the 30 minute mark before my head felt like it was going to explode and I was gonna hurl.

Since I knew that it would look like a massacre in my apartment that I did not want to experience the joy of cleaning my carpet as a result of going forward.. I stretched my way right outta there.

Eventhough I didn't get as far as I did last week. i feel good about pressing through and getting in my 30 minutes.

P90X - Classic - Char's Day 16

Yet another morning that my alarm goes off and I have had less than six hours of sleep.

I was so disoriented. I purposely keep my alarm clock in the bathroom (which is right next to my bedroom) so that I have to get up and move around in order to turn that thing off. At 5:30 in the morning... If that was in my bedroom I would turn it off and roll right back to la la land... lol

So I get up and walk with my eyes closed... to turn it off.

AND THEN I PRESS PLAY!!!!!

Evil... Evil... Evil...

Plyo & Nausea are synonymous for me... BUT not nearly as bad as week 1!!!!!

I'm getting stronger... my form is getting better... And I am hella excited about that.

There are a few moves where I can't leave the ground just yet but I just modify those and get on my tippy toes and reach as high as I can.

I'll be airborne soon with those....

I'll get you Tony Horton... next time

Oh yeah... There will be a next time...
This ain't over until the fat lady sings... Lucky for me buy the time I start singin'... I won't be a fat lady any more... lol

Oh BTW... I added a couple
of items to my page if you hadn't noticed. There's a page counter, and there is a link that will allow you to add me to your favorite RSS feeder.

Have an awesome Monday Folx
