P90x: Day 15 – Push ups and Pull ups
Already on day 15, wow it has been going surprisingly fast. Today marks the day of the beginning of week three in my P90x routine. I am very excited to get to this point, because last year I tried doing P90x I got only through two weeks of it, because I got lazy, but I was also 40 pounds heavier at that point of my life. The last year has been quite a journey with my weight, I have made some great accomplishments and I think making those goals earlier on in the year is going to help me achieve finishing the P90x program I am doing right now. So today I did the third round of P90x chest and back. I want to keep on pushing myself so today I decided to add the push up stands, and boy did it make a difference. After the workout today I could barely lift my arms, and that is a great thing. Putting those P90x push up stands in my workout really added a whole new element to the routine. it made me push harder, I did less rep, but I had to work harder in maximizing my reps. I also got to fully go at the pull ups again, because my latissimus dorsi muscle felt a lot better today, it did not hurt at all doing the pull ups. I still use the chair to support me in my chin ups. I try to do as many as I can without it, but if I want to get more reps in I use the chair to help me. Today, was a good day of working out, and now that I started using the push up stands I have to keep on using them, I cannot go backwards in my routines.
