Week 5; Block 2 Progress update

HEY!!! hope everyone's been well! This week was a little rough for me. My body is adjusting to this new workout routine BUT I'm still slamming the workouts in the ground. We've been outing our basement bathroom back together since we had to gut it last Spring, super exhausted this week.

I have skipped some workouts on days because my body is telling me to relax and take a break. So I will double up the next day so I don't miss a workout. My favorite new workout has to be Triometrics. Holy leg burning and shaking. I definitely felt that one the next day. I love being sore the next day. BEST FEELING TO ME! SO here is my lineup for this week:

MMX workout



Workouts for week 5:

Monday: Triometrics

Tuesday: The Warrior

Wednesday: X3

Thursday: MMX

Friday: Incinerator

Saturday: CVX

Sunday: Rest or Dynamix



I did my 30 day pictures and needless to say I was a little disappointed in myself. I have let myself go the past couple of weeks with the sweets, BUT I am back on track. I keep telling myself that I am a work in PROGRESS and SUCCESS doesn't happen overnight.

Here's my weekly meal plan for this week. I have tried new recipes and they turned out AMAZING.

I was very happy with this weeks menu. Anything you like on my menu, check under the recipes and you will find the recipe there. I also received my Shakeology HD shipment and it was the Neapolitan box. I tried the new Strawberry Shakology and it was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.                                   

 

 

 

 

Strawberry Shakology recipe:

1 cup water

1.5 cup of Almond milk

Ice

Whole banana

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As I mentioned earlier, this has been such an exhausting week for both my husband and myself. I am not letting that get in the way of reaching my goals. I have set crazy high goals for myself this year and I am ready to SMASH them! Until next week, Have a great weekend and Happy Superbowl Sunday!

Week 4: P90x3 Progress update

Wow, can’t believe were already at the end of month 1. This week is considered our Transitioning week. We’re going from BLOCK 1 workouts that have been the same since the first week to BLOCK 2

Workouts for this week are:

Monday: Isometrix

Tuesday: Dynamix

Wednesday: Accelerator

Thursday: Pilates

Friday: Agility X

Saturday: X3 yoga

Sunday: REST or Dynamix

Agility X at the lake

One thing I have never done before starting X3 was YOGA. I am not flexible by any means and thought I had some decent balance. Yoga definitely confirmed I am not flexible and I learned that I am off on my balance. So one of my goals I am setting for myself is to be able to touch my toes by the end of this program. THIS IS HUGE FOR ME.

Short story about my childhood. In elementary school they had different levels of awards in my PE class. I could never make presidential award because I could never hit the SIT & REACH at 33. I could never get my hands on the board.

Gorgeous view from the condo Saturday morning

Isometrix is another form of yoga, but is a little more intense. Great workout! Pilates is new this week so I am excited to try that as well.

One thing I have been doing, is if I skip a workout one night ill double up on another. This has helped me not miss any workouts.

 

Physical Changes:


I feel so GOOD!

I can start to see a difference in my body. My arms are getting stronger and my obliques are becoming more defined.

 

Next: My meal plan for this week. I have changed a few things. I had too many carbs on my diet before so I did alter that a bit with switching some snacks.

 

 

To give you an idea of what meal plan outline I am following if from P90x3’s Nutritional Guide they suggest while doing the 90 day workouts.

As you can see I love my SHAKEOLOGY. I normally switch it up between breakfast and lunch but this week it’s ALL lunch. It makes is easier during the week with my job and also on the weekends with errands.

I just switched my SHAKEOLOGY HOME DIRECT and ordered the combo pack with chocolate, vanilla, & strawberry. I cannot wait to try the new Strawberry flavor.

This also happened at work this week. I was having a major sweet tooth and caved into our candy at work.
