P90X Day Five - Legs, Back and Ab Ripper X

I kicked off Day Five at 1:20 am and kicked Leg and Back to the curb. Why did I start at 1:20 am, A) I'm traveling later and I don't see myself completing this in a hotel room and B) I was up pumped and ready to go.

I'd skipped the run today because I was getting the feeling that a daily hauling of ass running like a mad man along with this might not allow me to give 100%. One day's rest was just enough. I was strong throughout the 21 exercises. I already spend a lot of time on my legs so they were up to this challenge and it was challenging. Wall Squats and Single Leg Wall Squats for 1:45. I must have done thousands of lunges so those were not a chore, keeping my balance at tempo was tough with weights.

The back exercises were basically inserted to give your legs a break and he said as much. So we six different pull variations and I completed 110 in total. He said that his group did an average of 120. A year ago I could not do one pull up or chin up of my body weight.

There is no doubt that I will look and be different at the end of 90 days. Six down, 84 to go. I will run tonight and tomorrow Day Seven Stretching. I am going to take this super serious since I am not flexible.
