P90X Yoga X Warrior One
Namaste! I just completed P90X Yoga X. Today is day 18 of my P90X workout, which means only 3 more days to the recovery week! These days keep flying by and before you know it I’ll be heading into Phase 2, and then Phase 3!
I think I’m steadily getting better at P90X Yoga X. I feel like I’m able to maintain my balance better on the more difficult poses. I still stumble and fall sometimes during the poses, but I’m slowly improving. The Half Moon and the Standing Splits are 2 poses that I always have trouble with. I normally tumble when I try to do the Half Moon. Also, I can’t lift my leg up all that high and I have trouble holding it up when doing the Standing Splits. Oh yea, and I tried the Crane again today, but failed. I’ll get it one day!
I did the same thing today like I did on P90X Day 11, and I tried to shut off the outside world as much as possible to keep any distractions at a minimum. I also focused on the poses and my breathing versus the timer. Towards the end though, I did find myself going through my to do list in my head. I tried though to push those things aside and focus on the workout. Overall, I think it was a great workout.
