Hit up Core yesterday. I am sore today and there are some moves that have me falling all over the place.
Today I should have made up yoga but I was just not feeling it.
Tomorrow starts Phase two and the energy boost diet. We start adding in carbs and the work out really intensify. I posted some extra pics from this week but we will be taking the official day 30 pics this week, we are very excited.

Day 24 & 25
I took yesterday as my rest day, so I will be working out through the weekend. Thad is on his long stretch at work so he has not done much this week but I did see him bust out about 7 pull ups on the bar tonight.
Tonight was Kenpo, it never feels like that great of a work out but I am always sore the next day. That leaves core and yoga to wrap up the "rest" week. However this week I am finally starting to see some definition in my upper abs. Thad abs looks shredded it is so unfair how much easier it is for guys to get in shape.
We are going to rev it up this weekend so we are ready for day 30 pictures, 1/3 of the way to HARD BODIES!

Day 23
Yoga, twice in 3 days, plus I have it again on Friday. I have to say it is not as bad I as first thought and the flexibility I am gaining is amazing. Yoga unlike the other P90 videos is 1 hour and 30 minutes. The others are just 60 minutes. Plus he throws in abs at the end, he wouldn't be Tony if he didn't.
Thad is already jacked up for day 30 pics. I cheated and posted a pic on my facebook after my yoga work out tonight. I was feeling pretty good. I have to admit I have been doing some extra flexing too :) Kenpo tomorrow.

Day 22
Today is a yoga day, but I made up yoga yesterday. So I am switching yoga for core synergistics. Tomorrow I will do yoga again. Which I am happy to say is getting way easier so I am able to relax my mind and more through it.
Thad and I both did the core synergistics today. It is a full body work out. Up and down, standing and on the floor, weights and body resistance. Tony yells at you to squeeze your abs and butt a lot. It is a little awkward your first time through because you don't know what to expect, I am looking forward to doing later again this week, I will be able to work harder. I still think I will be sore. We are looking forward to day 30 pictures.... Coming soon!!

Days 18-21
Day 18 Yoga, skipped it
Day 19 Skipped it
Day 20 made up day 19 Legs & Back, Ab Ripper X
Thad and I did this workout together. I can't believe how many pull ups he can do now, I did not use the exercise bands instead I did pull ups with the assistance of a chair. My upper body is getting way stronger.
Day 21 Rest day today, I made up Kenpo X today. I am really sore from legs yesterday but I still brought it!!
This was a rough week, supper busy but I am not losing motivation.
We are going into a recovery week. It is yoga, kenpo, and stretch. We also add core synergistics, not sure what it is but we hear it hard. One last week of the fat shredder diet and than we go into energy booster.

Still Bringing it.
Days 13- 17
Yoga,
Chest & back, Ab Ripper X,
Plyometrics
and tonight makes Shoulders & Arm, Ab Ripper X!
Although I have too busy to blog with starting my new job and all I am still getting in the workouts. Even if I start at 10pm at night. It is defiantly getting easier and easier. I am excited to switch it up next week. I still can not make it all the way through Ab Ripper, well see how it goes tonight :)
Thad has been doing his own modified schedule because of his work schedule, skipping Plyo 2 weeks in a row, but getting in all the lifts. It will be interesting to compare our individual results at 30 days.

Day 12
Today I did Kenpo X. I worked up a sweat and got out some stress and aggression.
Today Thad caught up on Day 12 with Legs and Back.
Tomorrow we will both get back on track and do yoga together. It is better to have a work out partner to push you through.
We have been so excited about the results we are already seeing that we could not resist taking a few Day 12 picture. I know the blog gets a little boring being all writing so....her are our Day 12 pictures. You may not see a difference but we can feel it! Bring It!

Day 10 and 11
Day 10 was yoga I missed it due to my unfortunately busy schedule but promise to make it up on Sunday (rest day).
Day 11, today was Legs & Back and Ab Ripper x. Legs are not too bad, I am still using the green band as an option for the back part. I was suffering through ab ripper tonight. It is harder especially after the legs because you use a bit of legs during abs. My abs were burning. Hopefully they are sore tomorrow.
Thad is on his long stretch of work but still squeezed in day 9. He will have some catch up this weekend too. He is definitely trimming out, down 7 pounds, you can start to see the beginnings of a six pack (I am jealous).

Day 9...Plyo
I was sweating it up tonight! I made it through a lot more of the moves with consistent intensity second round. You cover a lot of ground and need a bit of room to really feel it, I am always worried I am going to to jump into the ceiling fan. Not a chance. Still loving it, more tomorrow.

Day 8...Chest & Back, Ab Ripper X
Cycle 2. Defiantly getting easier. We are both already feeling the gains. I switched to the green exercise band instead of the pull-up bar. Thad stayed hard core with pull-up bar. I am still doing push ups on my knees but I am able to pump out more reps! Thad also saw a increase in his reps (not on his knees).
Ab ripper x continues to bring the pain. I can't believe how much we are eating, protein, protein, protein. We added the recovery drink at the end of last week hence it does help with the muscle recovery.

Day 5 and 6.
Day 5...Legs & Back, Ab Ripper X
This was not so bad I feel like they got easier as the week progressed. Legs are a piece of cake for me as they are my strongest part of my body. Legs were not so easy for Thad and I caught myself laughing a couple of times.
Back was hard but instead of using the pull-up bar I used the 40 pound resistant bands, I was able to do more reps and get a better workout.
Day 6... Kenpo X
This is there version of kick boxing. It is a lot of kicking, punching and HI-AH! It is fun and a good way to take out any extra aggression you might have stored up. It is meant to get you heart rate up and it works. We thought it was pretty easy, the easiest so far but let me tell you we are SORE this morning!! Our upper backs and my butts.
The good news is I am already starting to see and feel the results. The friendly scale says I am down 5 pounds! We are both already feeling more toned and like we have more muscle definition. Today is a rest day or stretch for me. Thad has to catch up on Day 3 he missed from working his night shift. I will definitely doing at least some of the stretch.

Day 4...Yoga X
Yes yoga, 1 hour and 30 minutes to be exact. That is the most yoga I have ever done. Apparently flexibility is an important part of getting ripped. I got dizzy, fell over a couple of times and defiantly got distracted mentally. But I am a beginner after all. More tomorrow.

Day 2 and 3
Day 2: Plyometrics
Tony says this is the most extreme workout of the entire 7 disks. Thad and I defiantly felt like we wanted to throw up by the end of it. Basically it is a lot of jumping and bouncing.
Day 3: Shoulders and Back, Ab Ripper X
Shoulders and Back, supersonic extreme! This a fun 60 minutes workout. Lots of up row raises and triceps movements. I can see how the shoulder get so built.
Ab Ripper X, I hate it but I love it. Just my second time through and I can already do more of the moves. My abs were sore for days. Bring it Tony.

Day 1....Chest & Back, Ab Ripper X
Well if you have not seen the infomercials google it now (I'll wait)... okay now you know why we are doing this. After many 2 hour training sessions spent at the gym, not getting the results we really wanted, we have decided to take the 90 day challenge.
Today is Day #1. The program is complete with a day by day meal plan and day by day hour long work out schedule. At first I was intimidated by the meal plan, a lot of planning and cooking.
The cooking and eating is the easy part, the work out not so much. Of course we started with an intense upper body workout which is my weakest area. 1 pull-up and I was dying, but Tony is serious about Bringing It! This consisted of 60 minutes of hard core push ups and pull-ups. Finally, we ended with 15 minutes of ab ripper x, x because it is EXTREME.
