P90x Day 5 Legs and Back + ARX

Day 5 Legs and Back + ARX

Well I didn't go crazy with this today - most of the legs stuff I only went for 10 reps as I want to be able to walk pain free tomorrow .

Pull ups, I upped the weight (20kg to 25kg on pull downs) and reps for all from Day 1 so was pleased with that.

But by the time I was on to ARX I was shattered. I managed to up from my 15 to 20 reps on the first few moves but then it got worse as my energy levels really bottomed out
I missed a meal today, I had a double shake first thing and it lasted me longer and with a crazy work day, it was time for lunch before I knew it so missed my normal snack. I've also been very low carb the last few days and I think today I knew to it.

I checked my HRM when I was eventually done after a few breathers to be able to finish ARX, and I did a few more extra stretches I had burnt 762 cal so double whammy!


My knees have been a little tender over the last few days too, when I sit down in a chair they moan which I don't like, I'm hoping they are just adjusting so we will see over the next day or two. If not I feel a rest day coming on?
