1-18-17 HY: P90X2 - Cold Start + P90X3 - X3 Yoga + TCF + Splits.

1-18-17 HY: P90X2 - Cold Start + P90X3 - X3 Yoga + TCF + Splits.

This is my recovery day, and I also sort of had a time crunch issue because I over slept a bit and had to rush some to get my workout in in the morning. 

It is getting much colder recently so I decided to do a little warm up before the main routine.  I felt really tight and it has been a while since I did yoga so I wanted to give myself my best chance of doing well.  Cold Start is a great full body warm up, and I got a nice film of sweat on with a few drops around my forehead.  But best of all, I felt a lot looser which helped me feel ready for the up coming yoga.

It started out well, and I felt like I was back in it.  I was a little nervous about the Half Moon, but actually, I did it pretty well.  I didn't have as bad the balance issues I was expecting, so I was happy.  Reverse Half Moon, also a surprise.  The Wrap, I was able to grab my hands and hold the pose, again, happy and satisfied.  My nemesis move, Extended Leg with Toe Bind.  Better than expected.  I was able to get my leg to the side and keep it there to the end on my right side.  I fell out of it once on the left, but I was happy to have been able to hold it for as long as I did before falling out.  Finished strong.

I took the time to do my Flow right after the yoga so it ended up being like my recovery trifecta: Cold Start/Yoga/Flow.  Felt really good, and I was breathing well through out. 

I did the splits in the evening after work.  I had the night class tonight, so it was late as well. But I was able to keep it going and push low.

In the end (of the morning session), I burned a nice 323kcals.  Felt really good and loose all day.
