P90X3 Isometrix, Dynamix, Accelerator & BodyCombat 68

Monday was Dynamix chased with Isometrix and OMG I had forgotten how tough Isometrix is! Those 60 secs holds feel like an eternity 😞

Wednesday I did Accelerator - was a good one but tough for me because of all the Plank work ☹️
Will my shoulder ever get strong enough to do all the plank work in these programs??

I’ve been crazy busy and stressing over all sorts of stuff (and comfort eating) so today I decided to punch and kick the stress away and burn some of those chocolate calories away 😝 with Les Mills BodyCombat 68 - wow did I need that!!!

P90X3 Complex upper and Accelerator

Wow this was a crazy combo and one not to be repeated the day after Lower complex and X3 AB ripper!!

Upper was great - I did push press instead of lunge thrust press as I did so much leg work yesterday it seems a good idea but accelerator was tough - my plank muscles were toast after AB Ripper yesterday and the stabilisers from Upper, I had to skip a few of the last few moves because I was soo toast!!

Good fun though ;)

P90X3 Cold Start & Accelerator

X3 Cold Start & Accelerator

Phew!!! This is a tough one for me - I enjoy it but all the plank work I find tough on the arms!
But I will keep working on my weakness so that they are not weakness's any more!!!

X3 Yoga and X3 Cold Start & Accelerator

Had a crazy/emotional/tiring week visiting our new pup at the RSPCA everyday waiting for our home visit. Which we finally got on tuesday and so wednesday we got a 6 month old sprocker pup (cocker spaniel crossed with a cocker spaniel) home and he really has boundless energy. Been doing lots of more walking for obvious reasons and been too shattered for a workout until yesterday.

I managed X3 Yoga yesterday and then X3 Cold Start & Accelerator today - felt good to do something after near 5 days  I feel like I'm loosing strength and flexibility so need to get back to something so hopefully, albeit a slightly new routine because of the pup, but some kind of routine is being sorted so I'll start my new hybrid on Monday

X3 Accelerator

Oh my I forgot how tough this one is phew!!

So much plank work, I seemed stronger and better than last time I did it but boy it really whooped my booty last night  
Didn't help after all the plank holds in Isometrix the night before either!!

I just couldn't keep up towards the end, I kept collapsing and shouting 'uncle' lol
The swimmers planks, plank/sphinx combo and those bloody donkey kicks!!!!

It's a great workout and one I should maybe do more often to work on my weakness's!

P90X3 Accelerator

X3 Accelerator

Wow I forgot what this one was like  

We are moving units so today I've been lugging boxes and pushing heavy trolleys so I had sort of done a mini workout before I started tonight but hey ho'. More of the same tomorrow all day and poss friday too.

This one is tougher than it looks for me for sure! Mainly all the plank work makes my arms complain - it's getting better but I couldn't keep up with the kids tonight but I'm sure it was much better than last time lol

There is no way I would want to do this after Eccentric Upper  like those of you doing doubles!

P90X3 Accelerator

X3 Accelerator

Well this fun but tough - as most of these are first time round lol

I had to watch the first rep or two to know what I was doing and then get stuck in but there is a lot of plank stuff in here!
Swimmers planks OMG  = plank position and then swim front crawl with right arm while at the same time lift the left leg, and now swop sides!
The plank/sphinx combo (changing sphinx and plank position with a leg raise  ) was tough too and the Donkey kicks at the end - where did he dream those up from! Tony demos these on one of videos - crouch down, hands on the floor, kick your feets out and back in but land on one leg and kick your other leg through the gap made by your hand and foot  total craziness !!!

But somehow I still enjoyed it and even though I couldn't keep up for most of it I was one sweaty mess by the end
