P90x: Day 10 – Arms and Shoulders
Well, P90x day ten is done and over with. I officially only have 80 more days. That sounds like a lot of days!! Pretty much I am not even close to finishing the P90x program yet, one day at a time though. So far I have not missed a day, which is great, it would be terrible for me to miss a day in the first couple weeks, because the holidays are coming and I have to get as many workouts in as possible before Thanksgiving and Christmas take over. Today I did P90x shoulders and arms, and I did pretty well today. I upped my weight in a lot of the workouts, instead of using the red band I used the green band as much as possible. It is amazing how much those p90x resistance bands workout your muscles, especially when you raise the resistance level. This was my second round with this workout, the workout is great because it works out your arms and who doesn’t want good looking defined arms. This is also a great workout for your shoulders, and I feel that the resistance bands work great for your shoulders. I used to go to the gym with a buddy and we would do a lot of free weights and machines. I actually ended up injuring my left shoulder, doing a shoulder press, mainly because I was straining my self to get up the last rep. The resistance bands help me with a smooth action, so there is not a lot of strain on my shoulders.
Oh yeah and I always forget to mention this, but I did p90x ab ripper x again. I did a good job with it today to, this is still probably one of the most, if not the most challenging workout they have for me. My abs (core) suck. But today I probably did the most reps I have yet. I don’t know about you, but some of the moves hurt my tailbone. I know I talk about a lot of injuries but when I played football I injured my tailbone, some bigger guy knock me on my ass about 5 yards back. So since my tailbone hurts a lot when I do the ab ripper, I usually put a pillow under my butt, I find that it helps, it does not take away all the pain, but it makes it bearable. I am sure Tony Horton will be fine with that. Alright my favorite workout is tomorrow P90x Yoga!!! I was kidding, I really do not like Yoga, but I will do it anyway.
