P90X Ab Ripper X Fiffer Scissor
I just completed day 10 of my P90X workout!! Now I’ve only got 80 more days to go! Today was Shoulders and Arms and Ab Ripper X. It was a great workout and my arms, shoulders, and abs are exhausted!
I was finally able to find a store that had the plates I needed for my dumbbells (Dick’s Sporting Goods; I should have gone there first). So today I increased my weight on most of the exercises by 10 pounds. Towards the end of the workout I had to go back down to my original weight, but I pushed harder today and I got a great workout.
After P90X Shoulders and Arms, I did Ab Ripper X with my wife so I had to make sure to bring it! We are both super competitive with each other so I couldn’t let her show me up! I had to pause the P90X DVD like usual, but I was able to get through the entire Fiffer Scissor exercise without stopping! I also was able to get through all 50 reps of the Mason Twist. My wife of course had to show off and one up me during the Mason Twist. She held a 5 lb. plate during the entire exercise. Ok, I’ll admit it. She kicked my butt this time.
Nutrition for today-
Breakfast: Bowl of Fiber One cereal, and a protein shake.
Mid-Morning: Protein shake.
Lunch: Peanut butter & jelly sandwich (I used all natural peanut butter) Also had a protein shake.
Mid-Afternoon: Berry Smoothie with 1 cup of frozen rasberries, blueberries, & blackberries, 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed, 1 scoop of protein powder, and skim milk (not sure how much, just filled up the cup).
Dinner: A shrimp taco with black beans, shrimp (with mojito lime taco seasoning), lettuce, tomatoes, and shredded cheese (not a lot) on whole wheat soft taco shell.
After-Dinner: Protein shake.
Also, after my P90X workout I had a protein shake. I can’t wait for my P90X Recovery drink to come in! It really does seem to help me recover faster from the workouts and it tastes great.
Well, I’m off to watch The Biggest Loser! My wife LOVES the show and she got me into it. It’s a really great show and will definitely help keep you motivated. For everyone who is doing P90X, great work and keep pushing play!!
