P90X Winter 2011-12 Day 42-43: Plyo and Back & Biceps
Had a good workout for Plyo. Every exercise I did was less modified than last week. Back & biceps was the next day, and that also went well. My abs still ached from the other day, so I only did 3 exercises (75 reps total).

P90X Winter 2011-12 Day 31: Back & Biceps
I tried to heavy up some of the exercises. It is my first B&B this round, so it wasn't my best, but I did do my best, so I forgot the rest!

P90X Day 64 & 66: Chest, Shoulders & Tris and Back & Biceps
My schedule is completely off, but I'm just going to do my best to catch up.
CS&T went well (it was last week Thursday). Then my weekend happened, and I didn't feel up to doing anything until yesterday. I did walk 1-1.5 hours after work 3x this week, I walked 30min at lunch 4x and got off the subway 1-2 stops early 3x (15-20min), so I've been getting some cardio even while I've been "taking it easy".
Yesterday I did Back & Biceps. I did my first close-grip pullup unassisted in 2 years! I'm light enough now, and my arms are strong enough. When I feel like I can start doing unassisted ones, I try to do the close-grip pullups and/or chinups first. I switch them with whatever is supposed to be first, and do the other one later. Yesterday I switched the Wide Fronts with the Max Pullups -- I do the close-grip as my Max Pullups.
I'm going to do L&B and X Stretch tomorrow, and try to do BBL's High & Tight and Shoulders & Arms Sunday.
Monday: Plyo
Tuesday: C&B
Wednesday: BBL workout of some sort
Thursday: Opera! No workout
Friday: Legs & Back
Saturday: X Stretch
Sunday: CS&T & Plyo
Monday: B&B
Tuesday: BBL workout
Wednesday: L&B
Then it'll be time to do the final 13th week.
Yeah, yeah, let's see if I follow this schedule in any way!

P90X Day 44-46: Plyo, Back & Biceps, Not Yoga
I'm getting stronger, I'm able to get through Plyo with very few pauses now. Today I did all of ARX (yay! first time so far), and Back & Biceps. Upped my chair-assisted pullups. Since I'm alone with the dog, doing 2 routines is troublesome, so no evening workout. I had a shopping-related long walk, so some cardio... B&B was over by 2:15, so tomorrow's L&B will be 29-30 hours later.

P90X Day 37-38: Not Plyo and Back & Biceps
Yesterday we walked 30 blocks, all uphill, which was a good workout. Not as good as Plyo, but I didn't have time to do Plyo, since I had to go to see "Prairie Home Companion" at the Town Hall theatre w/Garrison Keillor. Wow, it was great! His guests were Leon Redbone and Heather Masse.
Today, I did Back & Biceps. Of course I was interrupted by my girls over and over, and then my friend called, and we hadn't spoken in a long time, so I had to interrupt the workout again. Anyway, by the time I started again, I think my blood sugar was crashing, I had to eat some almonds and a bowl of yogurt as I was working out. I felt sort of weird, but I was able to up my reps/weights, and increase my chair-assisted pullups. No unassisted yet. Maybe next week, or week 9. I think I'm going to do Yoga tomorrow, and maybe try to double up X Stretch on Tuesday or Wednesday. The girls are going away, so I will be alone over the weekend, so my schedule is going to be flexible.
