Started week 5 of P90x3 this week!! I have a new schedule this week!! 🙂
The last update I had said I was hurting. Sorry I didn’t report back earlier. By last Sunday afternoon I felt alot better after a nap and taking it easy the entire weekend. I used ice and muscle rub for what I think was a muscle strain/swelling. I don’t know what caused it-I’ve been moving alot of file boxes at work and I’m under alot of stress, so it could have been anything.
I do not think it was caused by any of my workout programs. I don’t want people to be concerned about that. I’ve been doing P90x3 for 4 whole weeks now and I have not gotten injured before so I don’t think its not related.

No P90x3 today. Didn’t want to jump right back into strength training after icing this whole weekend.
My nutrition went well for most of the day. Logged 3/4 of my food. Had 1/2 homemade sticky bun in the afternoon-ARGH-I can not stay away from the sugar!
Did Triometrics which is a good cardio workout. Burned 261 calories in 36 mins according to my HRM.
Also went to my first Zumba class tonight. Burned 380 calories in 51 mins. Did a separate blog post about my zumba experience.
Logged all my food and didn’t have ANY SUGAR!! whoohoo!!! Great eating day!
No P90x today.
no food logging. I totally fail on wednesdays!! 🙁
Did eccentric lower this morning. I liked using the hand weights! Can’t wait to do this workout again! Burned 153 calories in 31 mins according to my HRM.
Also did 20 mins of new Chris Freytag dvd-burned 183 calories with those 2 workouts.
No food logging today. Starting to feel like I’m getting a cold. 🙁
Did 31 mins of Incinerator this morning. Burned 138 calories. I liked using the hand weights and pull up bar. Then did 10 mins of arm workout with Chris Freytag burning 53 calories.
It was so fun taking pictures and watching hubby and my 3 year old do the workout later that evening. yes, my 3.5 year old did the ENTIRE 30 minute workout of P90x3!! I am not kidding you!! He used 1 pound hand weights, the pull up bars and push ups stands. it was HILARIOUS!! He loves to work out with his daddy and gets so excited to exercise. I had made him dinner but I could not get him to stop exercising to eat, so I just sat and took pictures of my boys. and then we all ate dinner together 🙂
No food logging today. super stressed at work and not even bringing my food journal with me. 🙁 I feel awful!
Ran errands with the kids-felt a little better than I did on friday. Hubby convinced me to do MMX workout with him that evening. 33 min workout, no HRM for that workout.
Then hubby and I were sick and kept each other up all night tossing and turning with coughs and blowing noses. sigh. I hate having a cold!! Been feeling bad since Thursday.

You look like you’re doing a great job and it great that your family is there with you cheering you on. Good for you. I need to get more active and fit as soon as the weather changes I plan to start walking and jogging.
I need to lose 25 pounds and I’m having so much trouble with motivation right now. I’m ashamed of myself. Your dedication is amazing and a real inspiration to those of us who are struggling.
I have heard great things about the Beach Body system, but living on the 2nd floor of a house and using work out videos just won’t work for us. My land lady lives on the first floor and they are pretty picky about noise.
However, we have a YMCA membership and I love going to Zumba and spin class!
I know what you mean about sugar, it is so hard to stay way from it!
I have heard great things about P90X. I feel like such a lazy shlub right now, haha. I need to get an exercise routine going big time. Keep up the awesome work!
Holy smokes! I need to get into some exercise routine. Yours is impressive!
WTG on your weight loss and you commitment to keep going!
Congrats on the weight loss and for keeping the motivation going. Great job!!!
Happy SITS Comment Love Thursday!!!
I haven’t tried X3 yet, but just ordered the 21 Day Fix! I’m so excited, it’s nice to meet a fellow coach 🙂
I wish I could join you but I just lack the motivation at the moment. I need to get into a fitness regimen and make it part of our routine.
Good job!!!!
Yay for the SITS Girls for helping me find your blog!
