P90X...Bring It!!

Josh and I began the P90X journey the week after we ran the Houston half marathon. We have a vacation planned in May and we both decided we needed to get bathing suite ready. The P90X program is an intense workout regimen that consists of working out 6 days a week using a variety of exercise Cd's that are 1 hour - 90 minutes long. We have really enjoyed it! We are about to begin Phase 3!

Here is the workout calendar that we use to keep each other accountable and keep track of our progress. Look at all those X's!

It has definitely been challenging for both of us, but I have really like the variety of the workouts along with the ability to do them in our own home. The workouts are everything from Chest/back/abs to Yoga, Kenpo, Plyometrics and Core Synergistics. Since we live in an apartment, we can't do all of the exercises in our living room, so we have to do some of them on top of our parking garage. Here is a pic of us getting ready....we place Josh's laptop on the tail gate of his truck.

Even Rusty participates in the workouts. Here he is doing Yoga with me : )

We still have 5 more weeks of the program to go, but we have been happy with the results so far. We have both seen improvements in our strength and stamina. As of week 8 we have both lost around 5 lbs!!!
