8-10-17 (Thursday) HY: P90X3 - Complex Lower + P90X2 - X2 Ab Ripper + Arm Shaper + TCF.

Well, I got home a little earlier than planned so I figured I could get a full workout in, but I kind of poopooed around and ended up not being able to get in my Splits training, but I got everything else.

With all the Tennis and Pickle-Ball I was playing in the last month or so, I haven't really done much resistance work on my legs, so I thought that on my final resistance day of the week, I would take a whack at it.  This routine, like the Incinerator yesterday, hasn't been done for a month, so I was happy to dust it off and do it today.  My legs didn't feel as strong as I would like them to be, so I didn't change anything from last time.  Weights stayed the same, and since the reps are pre-determined my Tony, they were all the same in each complex.  They just got harder and I got more and more tired.  I was able to crush the first two rounds, but when the third round came around, I was feeling it in my legs.  That "almost-going-to-cramp" feeling started to raise its ugly head.  But I powered through but went at slightly a slower pace.  So, to keep up with Tony, I cut my rest time a bit.  I was sweating like a pig by the final rep on The Stabilizer rolled around, and as usual, my glutes were SCREAMING!!!



I was glad to get in some arm work.  Only three moves today, but lots or reps.  50 Push-Ups then forward and Reverse Arm Circles.  I really wanted to do the Push-Ups in one set, so I went hard and I barely made it to 50 reps.  My arms were on FIRE!!!  Just regular Arm circles would have been to easy, so to amp it up some, I grabbed a couple 1kg hand weights and held on to them.  I got to 50 reps Forward fine, but I only got to 30 reps on the Reverse before the burn too intense so I had to tap out.  I had to tap out one more time after that.  Talk about being ON FIRE!!!

I needed a Flow after that!  So the Flow series ended my workout in perfect fashion.

In the end, I torched a nice 850+kcals.  A lot for such a short time.  Almost done the week!!!
