Obviously from the title of this post, today was my second time around on P90X Chest Back and Abs. I'm still pretty sore and tight from my Kenpo workout last night, but I feel like I pushed myself nice and hard. I feel good and fatigued as I sit here typing and sipping my protein drink. I'm definitely feeling myself getting stronger though, even after just one week on the program. I'm finding ways to push myself harder, whether it be higher weight, forcing just one more rep out of myself, or no longer modifying some of the movements. I did my wide pushups today without going down to my knees. They were significantly harder, I could only do 5 or so instead of the 15-20 I can do on my knees, but I felt great for being able to do just those 5. I also used the pull up bar today on the second time around instead of using the bands. I have to help myself quite a bit using the chair, but it's a significantly harder workout doing it that way. I think I'm going to start using it more often to push myself that much harder.
Tony's Ab Ripper X routine still 100% kicks my butt, or abs I guess, but again I'm definitely feeling myself getting stronger. I'm not having to completely modify every single movement. I may not be able to do all of the reps without modifying, but I can do at least some of them, and that's an improvement.
