6-23-15 HY: P90X+-Interval X PLUS + Abs/Core PLUS + Splits + TCF.

VERY BUSY DAY at work. Another teacher and I are in charge of a departmental event and we were just running around all morning trying to get things set up. I was sweating like crazy pretty much all day. I was really tired when I got home. So I watched the last half of a movie with my wife to relax then I got to it.

I wanted to do a Cardio workout today, but not Plyocide again. Just didn't feel it. So I looked to Plus and found today's routine. I was thinking, "Hmmm, only 40 minutes. I can take that today."  Boy was I in for a ride. I was burning by the third move.  The three level move and intervals is genius. I was really pushed because there is almost no break between moves.  The moves are all moves I've seen before with Tony, but the Intervals are tough, especially the second time around.  The first round, I burned only 290kcals. I forgot to check right after the second, but it was more.  I needed a few more longer breaks the second time around, plus, my heart rate stayed high the whole time. Not really "Intervalesque" of me.  By the time the last 5 or so moves rolled around, the first 20 seconds, which Tony calls the "recovery" time, wasn't a recovery time. It was just as tough coming off the last 20 seconds of the previous move. So tough!  But a great workout none the less.

I moved right into the Abs/Core routine and the moves were cool. I got a good burn on the moves, but I seemed to recover a lot faster with these moves than I did with the moves from Merciless Abs.  So the spot burn was awesome, but there didn't seem to be much afterburn.  The tightness recovered rather quickly.  But it was a fun routine to do with a lot of variety in the moves.  A lot of unique combinations of moves.  When I have time, I'm definitely doing this one again.

Moving into the splits and Flow, I nailed it! I was so happy to have a smooth run on the splits. I had a little more time today, so I just sunk into the splits a little more than usual.  Felt good and painful.  My Flow was good and solid, no hiccups to report on the surface. I seemed to forget what I was doing at one point, but I felt auto pilot kick in so I stuck with it.

In all, a very awesome workout.  All while being very tired.  In the end, I TORCHED 1283kcals! YEAH BABY!!!
