4-12-17 HY: P90X3 - X3 Yoga + TCF.

I think MAX 30 was wearing on me.  I mean, I loved the program and the individual routines, but doing that intense of a workout five days a week with a day of intense sports on another day and taking only one off day, WHEW!!! I think a month at a time is all my body would allow.  After the first month, I got sick with the flu.  Then I was feeling a bit worn out at the end of the second month and needed a few off days at the end to make it.

SOOOOO, Today was a treasure!!!

I brought back my Mid-Week Recovery Day!  It has been at least a ten weeks since I last took a recovery day so I was ready for this one.  I also wanted to get back into yoga.  I was curious as to how I would do on different moves or poses.  The big question for me was this, with my shoulder injury, would I be able to do the Wrap move.  Answer: YES!!!  I was actually surprised that I could do it.  And I was able to do it without too much effort, as far as being able to grab my hands.  There was a lot of stress on the front leg, but that has always been.  Half Moon?  I had a little bit of a balance issue on my right side but nailed it on the left.  I was also wondering about Camel Pose.  NAILED IT!!!  It all went by too fast and the 30 minutes was gone.  Let me tell you, 30 minutes of MAX 30 and 30 minutes of X3 Yoga present time in a very different manner.  One just flies by while the other gets you on your knees praying for it to end.  But both are awesome!

I had a great Yoga session and I had a great Flow session to end today's workout.  Everything just seemed to fit into place.  Now the question is, "What to do tomorrow?"

I was wearing my HRM, but the burn was of no consequence today. But just for the record's sake...

In the end, I burned just under 300kcals in 45 minutes.  Great recovery day, and happy to have it back!
