4-18-16 HY: P90X3- Cold Start + T25- Beta: Dynamic Core + Splits + TCF.

Since I had a late workout last night, I was fully intending to do my workout in the late afternoon.  But my morning was actually open.  I was going to just relax and not really do anything.  When I told my wife a little earlier that I was going to have a regular breakfast she was surprised.  Then, at about 9:20am, my wife asks me, "What are you going to do this morning?" I look at the clock and the words, "Nothing." just wouldn't come out.  Suddenly I said, "I guess I'll go ahead and do my workout."  This was more than 2 hours later than the morning workout I did last Wednesday.  I hadn't eaten breakfast then, and I decided, despite feeling a little hungry, not to have breakfast today.  I went for it.

I was feeling the soreness from the resistance yesterday coming on, but not yet at its worst. But I decided to go ahead and do Cold Start to warm up.  PERFECTION!!!  Then got into the cardio. It was a good routine.  I started breaking a good sweat after about 8 minutes.  In this routine, the first half is mostly standing cardio, and the second half is sitting core/abs work.  There are a few cardio moves, but it focused on core moves.  The V-Sit position is brutal in this routine.  Holding it in a static position got me today.  Then that move after the butterfly move where you have to go up and over the raised leg; OUCH!!! On the hip flexor as well.  It was a good Straight 25.

The Splits were good. I am focusing now, on pushing past the present plateau and going down one more level.  Got to get there sooner than December.  I also did a lot of good Flows.  Felt very fluid this morning.  I didn't feel much hunger which surprised me a bit.  But I was happy for that.

In the end, I burned a nice 575kcals.  Not as big a burn as usual, but it felt good.
