P90X3, Week 1, Day 1

I watched the introductory DVD, Did the Fit Test, and then did Total Synergistics. (There is a red wavy line under the word "Synergistics", is it not a word yet?)

Okay, I'll be honest, I was thinking, "30 minutes,HA! Piece of cake." Total Synergistics totally kicked my butt. I could not hang with about half the moves till the end of time, or I'd have to take a quick breather in the middle before finishing. Maybe I'm just making excuses, but maybe it was so hard because I just did the fit test and sort of burned out on those moves. Also, I had to take a little longer than the 30 minutes because I didn't know a lot of the moves. So I watched them do it, then went back and did it. I think I took an extra 10-15 minutes or so. But again, to tell the truth, It's a good thing because Tony was moving a lot faster than he has in the past programs (10 minutes trainer aside). 

But Man, was I beat. I started my HRM when I started watching the Intro DVD and then stopped it after cooling down. A total of 2 hours and 11 minutes.  I'm a little surprised at the Wowy gym, though. When I started the fit test, it only gave me 6 minutes to complete it. And for a lot of the moves, the book says, "rest 4/3/2 minutes". And believe me, I took those rests. Took a lot longer, with the rests to finish the fit test.

Here are my Fit Test results for Day 0:

Resting HR- 62
Pull ups- 16
Vert. Jump- 40 cm
Push ups- 45
Toe Touch Flex- 8 cm past my toes
Wall Squat- 2min. 6 sec.
Bicep Curls- 12 reps. 12kgs
In & Outs- 55
HR Max- 150, +1min.124, +2min. 111, +3min. 103, +4min. 97

By the way, I Loved the Shakeology commercial after the Total Synergistics workout. Tony was hilarious!
