Day 9

Yesterday was Plyometrics and WOW am I sore today, but still no muscle pain.  I'm really surprised that I have not have muscle spasms, but I am glad I haven't, because that would slow me down.  This was probably the hardest workout of them all, so much movement and pressure on the muscles. As the day went on at work my legs were not as sore, I am getting used to the routine and that is good for my body and for Fibro.
I was able to do almost all of the workout, each exercise is 30 seconds and I am getting used to the different positions.  I am ready for the next workout today, Arms and Shoulders.  My job is getting more and more stressful but this workout is making me days shorter and better.  I never thought that would happen in a million years.  I fell amazing right now, and I am so glad I have stuck with this even though it is tough and with our hectic schedule it is going to get even tougher.
I am thinking about moving my workout to the mornings so I will have time to complete each workout with our 17 year old son's summer schedule.  I guess I will make that decision when the time comes.  Right now I am in a routine and I am sticking with it.
I think the 2 old goats is playing a huge part in the soreness and lack of muscle spasms.  I have been using it more often, but it's doing the job so why change now.  P90X is all about muscle confusion and I think it is working for me right now.
Here's the reason I chose this workout!  Every morning I wake up and I am sore whether I work or not.  I can get out of bed and spend all day on the couch and I am sore the next day.  Some times I even stretch it a bit and play 18 holes of golf, and I am sore just the same.  What I did was looked at this workout and said what the heck, if I going to be sore no matter what I do, why not try something different!  So here I am 9 days into this workout feeling just as sore, if I sat on the couch all day.  Okay, maybe a little more than that, but I can live with the soreness, if it means that my body will benefit in the end.
I have set out to do something different, to dare to be different (Dagarmo & Key)!

So Bring It P90X!
