HY: P90X3-Cold Start + YAYOG-Adv. Timed Sets + Splits + TCF

I was fully intending to start a new hybrid combo today because it is April 1, but when I got to workout time I figured it was the middle of the week so I decided to start a new HY from next week so I could keep the week cycle clean. So instead, I put together a bunch of programs for a true hybrid.

It had been a while since I did YAYOG so I figured, "walk in the park." NO WAY. I did the advanced cycle and was SO dying with each move.  4 moves at 8 sets, 20 seconds on 20 seconds rest. The rest period seemed to get shorter and shorter as the cycle went on.  Move 1 was Star Jumpers. First few sets were fine, but from set 3 & 4, I was just dying. Breathing heavier than I have in a long time.  The 2nd move was Half Dive Bombers, upper back and tri's were dying from the same point. The 3rd move was Side V-Ups.  This was a little easier because each side only got 4 sets, but still died on the last two sets. Last move was Bridge Hip Thrusts. What didn't hurt here? It was a great full body workout.  For each move, I would start out at a good pace, but for some reason, I would naturally, without thinking about it, pick up the pace on the last two sets to increase the number of reps. It felt like an obligation to up my rep number. I would totally die in the end, but felt good.

Splits and Flow were good. Pushed more, but had to lay off a bit compared to yesterday's push. My knee, for some reason, felt a little gimpy on the straddle splits so I took it a little easy.

In the end, I burned over 650kcals.  That's 200 less than I burn with 3 of the 10MT routines is a little less than the same time. Interesting.

Last night, my wife felt something in her throat after shopping. Then later in the evening, I too, felt something in my throat. So I gargled with some medicine and went to bed. I felt just a bit off all day, but the only time I felt good with during my workout.  Felt pumped and good for some time afterwards, but now, not so good. I can feel my body fighting the good fight. I'm going to get a lot of rest tonight so hope I'm fine in the morning.
