P90X - Days 17 & 18

P90X update from last two days...

Day 17 - Shoulders & Arms, Ab Ripper X: I definitely worked the shoulders and arms hard. I do think my form could be better though. I continue to try and improve form while doing max reps. My left shoulder hurts slightly when doing some of the exercises, but it's probably due to the fact it's the weaker arm. As far as the Ab Ripper goes, I kept up with them better than I ever have since I started the program. Still need some improvement, but I was really pleased with how much more I could do ab wise. Hopefully it will continue to improve!

Day 18 - Yoga X: Yoga is always interesting to me. I am definitely getting more flexible, I can tell. My biggest struggle is keeping my back straight and upright in certain positions. I continue to try and not slouch and keep my head up, chest out, and back straight. Flexibility is definitely getting better. I think by doing Yoga and improving my flexibility, it will make the other workout programs a little easier.

Tomorrow is Day 19 is Legs & Back and the last lifting exercises of the week! Then it's Kenpo, Stretching, and then my "rest week" starts. I can't believe I've almost got 3 weeks of the program behind me! Looking forward to bringing it again tomorrow!
