Week 2..... feeling it...

Today we started week 2 of p90x as we were unable to do it yesterday (had to work a 12 hour day.)  I am going to say this loud and clear for anyone who is trying this work out: before you start the work out, ORDER THE RESULTS AND RECOVERY FORMULA! I cannot stress this enough! regular protein shakes will NOT deliver the repair you need in the amount of time you need it.  Today was killer for me, as i am STILL sore from kenpo x. I would have had my formula today if it wasn't for fed-ex pushing back the delivery date without telling me.  Did I miss somewhere that it said that Valentines day constitutes delaying deliveries??? Ugh. stupid holiday.  Anyway, here are our stats J= jeremy B= brieanna (myself) and two sets of numbers are the two-three different times we did each move.  I will start with day one, only jeremy forgot to record his so it will just be my numbers for that day which was feb 6.
Day One:                                                                                                Day Two:

Kenpo X!!!

I totally love kenpo x!!!! it is by far my favorite workout! imagine shadow boxing, kickboxing and self defense all in one video without having to deal with an annoying instructor! i was sweating bullets!! i was loving every minute of it. the  low block jeremy and i were saying wax on wax off... actually that was the inside block. anyway! it was just awesome.  tomorrow i will have to push back chest & back and ab ripper x to tuesday as i am working a 12 hour day.  so i will be one day behind everyone else in my challenge group but that's ok! i will make it work. monday will be my day of rest and then tuesday will be day one and on for the rest of the week.  feeling awesome! i am so much more flexible than i ever thought i would be in my entire life! If you have the chance to try P90X I highly recommend it! check it out on my page beachbodycoach.com/fitforparadise :)

Running Behind but got my week finished!!

WOO!! Man yoga x was AWESOME!!! however, I wasn't feeling the greatest.  So, I only completed one hour.  still best hour ever! I completed that workout on thursday.  Friday was legs and back and AB ripper x.  MY ABS ARE KILLING ME!!! thankfully I have my wonderful hubby pushing me forward and keeping me going.  I did 45 mason twists!!! up 15 from day one!!! im totally amazed.  Chin ups i did ten without a chair. Jeremy made the joke my head was gonna go through the ceiling lol!  pull ups at most with assistance of a chair just in case i slip, and farther away for more resistance, 8!!! I can't believe how quickly our bodies have changed in one week! Today I had a special convention I had to go to so Kenpo X will be tomorrow.  I am excited to announce, also, my husband is a brand new beach body coach!! so proud of my hubby! our p90x formula shows up on monday! cant wait really bc my muscles, and Jeremy's too, are still EXTREMELY sore.  this formula will help out a lot better than regular protein.  :)  Then, Shakeology!!! :) Can't wait for the Strawberry Banana!!! :D  Looking forward to Kenpo X tomorrow.  We're bringing it hard core! oh yeah buddy!

The Beach Body Challenge

I have officially joined the ranks as a Beach Body Coach.  I am pushing myself for 90 days, past my comfort zone to get in the best possible shape of my life.  By my side, my trusty and supportive husband Jeremy.  He has being doing the workouts with me from day one (which, I must add, was on Feb 6th.  I know, I'm a little behind).  We are both moderately fit, so when we signed up to do P90X, we figured, "we got this."  well, we were wrong.  P90X has pushed us beyond our limits in the first two days.  After day one, Chest& Back and Ab Ripper X, we were so sore! I am still sore from day one.  Day two, (yesterday) was plyometrics.  Not as much cardio as I thought... Honestly, I don't know what I thought or assumed.  I can guarantee it WILL work your legs.  My calves are killing me, and Jeremy's quads are killing him.  However, I believe if we had our Results & Recovery formula, we would not be so sore.  I have purchased that today and am eagerly awaiting it in the mail.  Tomorrow, is yoga x which I am SO looking forward to.  Body weight training has been my favorite go to form of fitness for the last year.  From here on out, I will be blogging each day about the results while posting the results after the 90 days are up. :)  I can't wait! Only 88 more to go!
