July 9, P90X3, Week 9, Day 4 (Block 3)- X3 Yoga + YAYOG: Intermediate, Timed Sets.

Still not feeling 100%. Throat is scratchy and feel a little warm internally. But still felt good enough to do my scheduled routine plus a little extra.

I decided to do the YAYOG workout first, then end with the yoga. I had previously done the Novice level just to try it out so I moved to the intermediate routines today. Only four moves of six sets. 20 seconds of each move followed by 20 seconds of rest. Sounds easy enough, but by the 5th and 6th set, I was feeling it. Finished the workout in about 25 minutes. The four moves are, Jump squats, Pike Presses, Swimmers, Cross Mountain Climbers. Since I did this little routine, I decided not to start the P90X3 routine with Cold Start, rather I went right into the workout.

I was feeling really loose today so it went well. My chest was feeling particularly sore today so I really tried to open my chest on moves like Triangle, and the Wrap, etc. For some reason, the routine seemed to fly by and it was done before it even started. Felt really good afterwards.

I thought it was quite ironic that I was working towards finding inner peace while a typhoon was raging and ravaging just outside the walls of my house.

I topped off the evening with Chocolate Vegan Shakeology. YUMMY!
