Day 9 and 10 - Plyometrics and Shoulders & Arms + Ab Ripper X

I was dreading doing Plyometrics again, as it is by far my least favorite workout. We actually did a little better this time around and only took 2 very short breaks. I think if I had made the effort to spend an extra $30 on a heart rate monitor it would have been reading 'what the f*ck are you doing, you're about to have a heart attack!' lol. I get soo dizzy doing all those squats and jumps and lunges. I definitely did better on the chair leg swings, I didn't hit the chair once! Go me! I was soo tired after working out that I passed out in bed with my sweaty gym clothes still on. Ryan had to wake me up and remind me to get my sweaty butt in the shower before I fell asleep for the night, lol.

WE ARE NOW ON DAY 10! I am so excited that we are now a 10th of the way done! I am pleased to say that muscles soreness is at a minimum now. This time last week I felt like a semi truck had run me over, but I guess my muscles are now accustomed to being drained every day. Today we did shoulders and arms which I also felt I did a little better at. I even felt good enough to go straight into Ab Ripper and I completed a lot more reps this time than normal, and some I didn't even need to take any breaks in between! THAT'S an accomplishment!

Tomorrow is yoga and I have to go it alone because Ryan will be working late tomorrow night. Boo. For anyone who is in their first week or two of P90X, keep it up, it DOES get easier!


DAY 10 RESULTS!
We knew we'd been seeing and feeling results, but it's definitely gratifying seeing the comparison photos! You can see some minor changes in both of our bodies. I see some changes in my abs and definitely in my back. Ryan's chest is gaining more definition and his back muscles are also more defined. I can't wait to see day 20! Click to zoom in!
