For my workout today, I did the P90X Shoulders and Arms, along with P90X Ab Ripper X. The Shoulders and Arms workout consisted of about an hour of various arm exercises using weights for some moves, and your body weight for others. I didn't realize my triceps were so weak until I tried the tri-side push-ups, where you lie on your side and lift yourself using your tricep strength. What a challenge. Overall, I enjoyed the workout because I don't workout my arms too much usually.
Ab Ripper X was another story. Talk about tough. This made the 30 Day Shred feel like a rest day. Ab Ripper X gives you no breaks, and you go right into tough moves, one after the other. It's my goal to finish this 15-minute ab workout without stopping.
As for yesterday's workout, it felt tough then, but I wasn't hurting so bad today. I don't think today's arm/shoulder work will be so kind. Shouldn't matter though because tomorrow is my long run day. Wish me luck!
I hurt just thinking about your workout with P90X. If the darn thing wasn't so expensive, I'd get it and give it a whirl ... this year will bring better things right (that's my working mantra right now).
