I was out of town for one of my friend’s wedding this weekend so I was unable to complete my day 3 workout, but as a way to kind of adjust things I figured I would just replace the days I missed with my rest day. Anyway, I was able to do the shoulders, arms, and ab ripper X workouts today when I returned home and as I expected it was pretty challenging to say the least. I had some issues determining what would be the most challenging weight to use without either over exerting myself or not challenging myself enough. I was able to adjust the weights appropriately as I switched from round 1 to round 2. Throughout the exercises I could feel the burn throughout the workout as my biceps, triceps, deltoids, etc. seemed to be screaming. I love this in a workout; it let me know that I am really working my muscles out.
Subsequently following the shoulders and arms workout I was able to go into ab ripper X. The first day I did ab ripper X, I found it to be a very challenging work. The exercises really got my abdominal muscles burning and this time was no different. Last time I had difficulty and was forced to take small 3 to 5 second breaks during the routine but this time around though I still had times when I had to take small breaks I was able to push myself and I am happy with what I accomplished. Following the workout I enjoy a nice steak dinner providing me with the necessary protein, carbs, and fiber. Tomorrow is Yoga X, it should be interesting since I have never done yoga.
