P90X: Day 10

We’ve completed 10 days!  I know Chris will agree with me when I say that so far we are very pleased with the program.  On top of that, we both have more energy and are starting to feel a bit more powerful.  Whether or not that’s true is probably up to interpretation, but at least we feel good.

Today was the second day of Shoulders & Arms (as well as the normal Ab Ripper X).  For whatever reason I found myself having the ability to power through this workout like I couldn’t last week.  The easy answer is that my body is adjusting, but I am pretty sure that there’s more to it than that.  I was pushing higher weights longer than I thought I could, and I was enjoying the pain.  I’ve always had trouble getting over that initial hump, so I’m actually very happy with my workout from last night.  My arms are not so happy with it…but it occurs to me that they aren’t supposed to like it.

Later today I’ll be doing Yoga for the second time in my life.  I’m not sure if I’m looking forward to it, but I will be curious to see how I manage some of the poses now that I’ve gone through it once.
