Day 8

Today, I am very sore, but I pushed myself to do a lot more in yesterdays workout.  I finished the entire workout and did more reps in the workout, I can see this workout working and doing what I thought it would.  The muscle confusion is working and the Vemma is allowing me to push myself to the limit.  I used the 2 old goats more last night and today than I ever have, but it works, so why not use it!  The workout was Chest & Back- a lot of pushups and pull ups, with a little weights mixed in + the AB Ripper X workout to close the session.  When I started this workout 1 week ago I could not do the AB Ripper X at all, last night I did about 3/4 of the workout, my body is repsonding well to this workout and I am supprised to say the least.  I beleive that this might even be a break through, for all with this disease. 

5 years ago when I was first diagnosed with Fibro. & Lupus, I thought my life was over.  I spent a lot of time pouting and feeling sorry for myself.  4 years ago when I found Vemma and sarting using it as my treatment, I never thought I would be able to take on such a feat as P90X, but I am here and so far it is working.  I have a plan in place and right now that plan is working, I know that this is a long process, but I am not looking ahead, I am taking it in a day a time. 

I don't want what I am saying to take away from this amazing workout, P90X is everything I thought it would be and more.  This workout is a complete workout, there is more to this workout then just pumping iron, and I think that's what makes this workout so successful.  The Yoga and X Stretch are probably my favorites, because of what they are doing for my muscles.  The other workouts are tough to say the least, but they add a variety that adds to what I am doing each and everyday.

This morning when I woke up, I took a shot of Vemma, to give my body the recovery time it needs, so I will be ready for the next workout later today.  That was early this morning, it's 1pm and I feel much better already.  I will stretch here in about an hour to get even more out of my body. 

Today, is Plyometrics and this workout is so tough, I will need this recovery time to make it through this workout.  I am trying to pace myself, each and everyday, to get the most out of each workout.

Until Tomorrow!
