P90X- Week 3 Review

Week 3 is in the books! Jared's thoughts of the week:

My thought all along was that as we got familiar with these workouts and the exercises that we were doing that it would gradually become easier...WRONG! I'm still just as sore each day as when we first started. I think that is because at the beginning we couldn't do some of the difficult exercises. Now our form is better (so we can attempt the hard exercises) and we are doing more reps and therefore we are still sore.

Paige is starting to look really good and I think I'm a little less disgusting than when we first started so all in all its a win so far. Its to bad you can't just drop all the belly weight first instead of last!

High point of the week is the encouragement/amazement of my mom. She was visiting for a few days and each time she came in the room and watched us kept remarking "wow, I'm impressed you guys; look at you two go; oh its so cute you do it together." Also this next week is a "rest" week so we do mostly cardio exercises and no heavy lifting..YES!

Low point has to be yoga. We are getting better at it but the workout is over 90 minutes long and gets very repetitive. As I get the hang of the breathing though I'm starting to hate it just a little bit less (seriously just slightly less...we both still detest yoga)

21 days down, 69 to go! 1 more week and then we start Phase 2.

I can totally picture mom saying that! She's always good at encouraging us. I can't wait to see the transformation.
