Day 10 P90x, work contest, First Day push up challenge, busy busy busy

Posted by swljuggernaut on July 14, 2010

So tonight I hummed and hawed and didn’t get my workout in til nearly 10 pm (started it).  No other reason than I bummed around after work and supper and did anything but move.  Not wanting to start missing workouts this early in the game I went down stairs and banged out my shoulders and arms along with Ab Ripper X.  I still can’t do all the ab ripper x moves but I am getting more and more each time out of the gate!

To add to P90x my buddy Josh started the 100 push up challenge today and well being the competitive sort we are I couldn’t let him start that and me not follow suit so I started today as well.  Following the Day 1 workout of week 1 I did the following sets with 60 sec rest

1.  10
2.  12
3.  7
4.  7
5.  20 (max reps)

My arms and chest were still sore from Mondays workout and I had to follow it up with my p90x workout so I was happy with 20.   Next workout for pushups is Fri.

Also today I found out with one person left to weigh in who was absent today I am leading a work Biggest Challenge contest! yay me.  Looks like I am guaranteed the 90 dollar second prize, and perhaps will win the first prize, (can’t remember the prize, 200 I think?) .  So keeping my fingers crossed for that.  We’ll hopefully find out tomorrow.

Work has been completely balls out busy.  Craziness.  And we just found out something goes into affect in the morning that could make it loads ahhh……we’ll say more interesting.  Sigh.  Can’t wait for 4 pm tomorrow. 3 day weekend.

woo.

Day 8 Chest, Back and Ab Ripper X

Posted by swljuggernaut on July 12, 2010

Another day down and a great workout in the heat tonight.  I had a good workout, and a good day of eating.  I have not been on the scale since Saturday morning and I don’t plan on getting on all week except when I have to weigh in for a work contest. 

Went for a walk this evening after my workout to the local drug store to get my refill for my blood pressure medicine with my wife.  I also walked home after work the 5km, so I have gotten lots of exercise today, and got in 31 points nutrition wise today.  I continue to come up short with my water intake, gotta work on that. 

Not much else to say tonight, I will be back tomorrow after my workout.
