P90X Day 1 is over and I lived to tell about it

P90X Day 1

Today was my first day doing the P90X program. It was pretty intense for me. I started out my workout today running around getting handles on the bands, switching handles because I needed tougher bands etc.

It mentions on the DVD to take it easy the first time through because you have to do things twice. I knew I wasn't in shape so I set my goals low. I figured if I set them too low it would be easier for me to adjust the next time.

I ended up not using the pull-up / chin-up bar because I am too out of shape, but it won't be long before I am using it again. I was able to do a few in college so I know it is possible.

Update (The Day After): I realized today that I did not complete the second part of Day 1. I for some reason thought the Ab Ripper X was for day 2. Oh well I am still proud of myself. I will get it done the next time.

If I look at my results on a per excersise basis it looks like my results weren't that great, but the amount of work I did over the course of the workout is pretty amazing and I am feeling it today.

I will put in my results in the next few days. I wrote my results on a piece of paper and need to get them typed up. I ache a lot today, but I don't mind. In a few weeks I will look back on Day 1 and will be in disbelief about how out of shape I was :-)

I will be starting Plyometrics shortly as my Day 2 workout.
