Round 3 / Day 89: Insanity Max Interval Circuit

I admit it: I cheated today during Max Interval Circuit. Instead of repeating the circuits three times each, I only did 'em twice.

And yet the workout was still crazy-hard.

(Thankfully, this was the last "Max" Insanity session of Round 3; I'm not sure I could have handled many more.)

Round 2 / Day 89: 100 Pull-Ups, 200 Push-Ups + P90X Ab Ripper X

I'm trying to slowly but surely increase the number of reps I do with weights strapped to my belt. Today: 35 pull-ups with a 20 pounds of weight strapped to my belt, 35 pull-ups with 10 extra pounds, and another 30 pull-ups with no extra weight. Not much more than last week, though I added another 50 push-ups. Baby steps, I guess.

P90X Day 89: Core Synergistics

What's not to like about Core Synergistics? I've enjoyed it since first trying it in Week 4 -- it's a great, medium-intensity, full-body workout, and perfect for recovery weeks.  I'm even digging the prison cell push-ups (though I could still do without the plank-to-chaturanga runs). After tomorrow (Day 90!), I may not be consistently pressing "play" on all my P90X DVDs, but Core Syn will likely stay in regular rotation.

My only complaint? When it's time for me to flop around on the floor during Superman-Bananas, I'm already coated in a sheen of sweat, which means I end up slip-sliding across my mat and banging into things. I need more room. Alternatively, I need to put on a shirt.

And with that, 89 days are down, with just one to go. I wonder if Tony will miss me.
