P90X Day 36 – Chest, Shoulder and Triceps + a Bonus
Time to Bring It is WEEK 6 Baby!!!
Got to love it. Made it through 5 weeks of P90X only 4 month after having surgery on my torn pec. Not to toot my own horn, but I think it is awesome. Never thought I would be knocking out 30+ push ups 4 month after having my chest muscle reattached to my shoulder, but guess what, I can do them with ease.
I must say I had a great workout today. I felt good, pushed hard and increased my numbers again. I particularly bumped them up a lot in the push ups! The only one I still have a tough time with and must use my knees is the one arm push ups. Those are just TOUGH. No other way to put it. The other thing I want to mention is the seated throws. I am not sure what everyone feels about this exercise, but I don’t really enjoy it. I feel like it puts more stress on my shoulders than it should. Maybe it is just odd for me because I am a bigger guy but I would love to get peoples input.
Other than that exercise, I love the other 23 moves, even the Plyo push ups. Yes, plyo makes its way into this workout. Basically with this move, when you push up, you leave the ground. I haven’t done the clap version yet, but I knocked out 13 reps in plyo push ups today, which was a definite increase from last week. Another great workout in the books.
But wait, I got a second workout today! Yes, there is a Pittsburgh Fit club that started and we blasted through Interval X from P90X Plus! This was my first time doing this workout and man was it tough. 41 minutes with only 1, yes 1, break!!! Tony is insane! Although it was extremely tough, it was also a lot of fun. The moves were very different and easy to do. The routine moved fast since each move was only a minute. Definitely a great workout to add into any program for cardio.
