Round 3 / Day 19: Insanity Max Interval Circuit + RKC Get-Ups

I just ate like a big pig (one that enjoys ceviche, guacamole and steak), but at least I burned some calories earlier today by jumping up and down like a crazy person. And although I'm not scheduled to do Get-Ups until tomorrow, I knocked 'em out before I left home this morning, figuring that there aren't going to be kettlebells at the fitness center in my hotel.

Round 2 / Day 19: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper X

I think I'm on the verge of overtraining.

During Legs & Back this morning, my left leg kept wobbling during relatively easy lunge exercises (e.g., Sneaky Lunges, Side Lunges, etc.). After a few weeks of trying to cram Insanity workouts and barefoot running into an already-demanding P90X schedule, something's bound to give, and I don't want it to be my knees. I'd hoped to go running yesterday, but I got busy at work, and I think I'm going to rest my legs for the remainder of today, too. A few days of R&R can't hurt, right?

P90X Day 19: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper X

This morning, I started my workout dog-tired and with little motivation. I didn't get much sleep last night, and Legs & Back (one of my least favorite P90X routines) is particularly grueling. I was lagging. Still, that's no excuse for my low energy level and failure to "BRING IT" as King Douche likes to exclaim. Not surprisingly, I didn't see much improvement in my pull-up numbers this time around.

I wonder if I'm bonking from lack of carbs. I'm going to try to ingest more carby goodness and see what happens.

On the plus side: I'm really getting the hang of Ab Ripper X. If I could only straighten my legs more when performing Fifer Scissors and Pulse-Ups, I'd be a happy camper.
