Round 3 / Day 30: Insanity Cardio Recovery

The "deep muscle" sequence in Cardio Recovery didn't feel like recovery at all. My legs got torched.

Remind me to never again wish for more challenging workouts during a recovery week.

Round 2 / Day 30: Insanity Plyometric Cardio Circuit

Another Insanity workout completed without taking any extra breaks!

I don't want to jinx myself, but I feel like I'm getting the hang of this.

Day 30 Photos

Well, it's Day 30, so I guess it's time for my Phase 1 Results photos:

For a blast from the (recent) past, my Day 1 photos are here. Also, side-to-side comparisons between my Day 1 and Day 30 photos can be found here and here.

I'm pretty encouraged by my results so far, but I also suspect that any visible improvements are the result of the P90X Nutrition Plan diet rather than new muscle development.

One more thing: I just noticed that my belly button is off-center, which I'm finding both awesome and disturbing.

[UPDATE: My Day 60 photos are here, and my Day 90 photos are here.]

P90X Day 30: Plyometrics

This morning was my first Plyo workout in two weeks, and man oh Manischewitz (as my annoying TV trainer's uncle used to say), I'd forgotten how challenging this session can be. My legs turned to jelly after the second round of Run Stance Squat Switch Pick Ups, and they stayed that way throughout the rest of the hour. It was exhausting, but I enjoyed it nonetheless -- especially knowing that after today's Plyo routine, I'm a third of the way through P90X!
