P90X

Okay, so I've joined the craze.

I downloaded an app of P90X -- the routine that has all of those tongues wagging about Paul Ryan and his fit body. He is really fit.

Well. Let's just say that workout one jolted me into action. And I'm sore today. Now, I'm pretty fit - not a perfect specimen, but I do get out there and do something each day.

But. It's a circuit. Going from move to move. Quick time on each exercise. One minute. Thirty seconds.  Stretch for 20 seconds. And so on.

The first day is the chest and ab ripper. Variations of push ups and pull ups. Stretching. More push ups and pull ups. More stretching. Abs. Abs. And more abs.

I'm sore today. Push ups haven't been in my routine for a while. I used to do them regularly and then got out of the habit. I had to use my knees. Sad isn't it?

My abs are also a bit sore. Yippee!

I'm not sure how I'm going to proceed with P90X. I may or may not follow it exactly. I do love certain parts of my routine(s) and will keep them up. For now, though, I'm in.
