WOW! X Stretch is the best!
I have done this workout 5 times now, and it just keeps getting better and better each time I do it. This workout is getting easier each time I do it, probably because I am getting more and more flexible with each workout. I have started using the stretches from this workout all day long, when I feel the need to stretch I do it. I never dreamed of ever being this flexible!
The best thing about X Stretch is I can relax now and enjoy the workout, before I was struggling to get the poses down and therefore it was a tough workout. The design in the workout is awesome, you have a heavy day followed by 2 day of calm relaxing workouts. My body is allowed to recovery a little longer which is great for me.
I know that the real workout starts in week 5 so I am taking this week in slowly. I thought it would be easy, but I have been challenged to the extreme this week. However, I have been able to push a little more this week, and that is good for the coming weeks ahead. My goal is to have a Beach Body, and I am well on my way. I want to prove that no matter who you are, anyone can do this workout!
I love my Routine right now, it has gotten me through this amazing workout, and I could not have even tried this without it. The 2 old goats cream is amazing, I love what it allows me to do in each and every workout. The Vemma is still going strong and my body is recovering faster than I thought it would. Tomorrow I will use the Verve to get me through my 12 hour day with Wal-mart so I can do Core Synergistics, a very hard workout.
I have noticed that I have a lot more energy at work even without the Energy Drink, Before I started this workout, I was tired everyday about 3 or 4, but now I can go all day without feeling tired. That is a big deal when you work 12 hour shifts. Plus, before I went into Management with Wal-Mart, I worked 8 hours and was dead tired when I got home. The workout is doing more for me than I ever thought possible.
P90X Rocks!
Bring It!

Day 24
What a workout yesterday! I think I have figured out how to use this workout for improvement. Instead of throwing punches and tearing a muscle or something worse, I am using this workout to better my flexibility and strengthen my core muscles. There are exercises all through this workout where you are supposed to throw punches with your arms, I use my whole body instead and I got a much deeper workout. I am very cautious about hurting myself with this workout, so I have been taking it a little easier on my body during this workout, until today!
I used all the different exercises differently than I have before. First, in the section where you throw punches I used my shoulders and legs more than you are supposed to. Second, In the kick section, instead of trying to kick like they were on the video, I found a level that worked for me and stuck to it all the way through the workout. this was a huge benefit for me and my legs actually feel much better the day after the workout. I am still pushing myself to go as far as I can, I am just taking precautions to take care of my body for the future. Lastly, in the section of the workout where there are a lot of combo moves I used all my body to do those moves and WOW what a workout.
If I continue to do this with this workout I will get better results and that's what it is all about. I am so looking forward to tomorrows workout X Stretch, by far the best stretch exercise I have ever done. I will explain more in detail in tomorrow's post. Stick around to hear this! I think anyone can do X Stretch, and buying the workout is worth it just for Yoga and X Stretch.
Until Tomorrow,
Kevin

Day 23
What a day! Core Synergistics was a total body workout, and tough to say the least. I worked things I didn't even know I had. It was very tough, and I was again unable to do most of it. Still, I stuck with the complete workout, and I only used weights on a few of the moves. Today, I am pretty sore, in my arms and back, but still no Spasms.
This workout is the change that I needed, I was getting used to the workout, for the last 3 weeks and now the change is just what my body ordered. Core Synergistics, has been the hardest workout so far but the best to my knowledge. Just when my body got adjusted to the first three weeks, there was a change, and now my muscles are confused yet again. This is the amazing part of this workout! The muscle confusion is working so well right now for my body, I can't wait to see what comes next!
My flexibility has gotten so much better it just blows me away. When I started this workout I could not touch the floor without bending my knees, now I can! Flexibility is the key going forward with P90X and now I see it. I have worked in a couple of extra workouts myself to help improve my flexibility over the past couple of days. I am so excited, to see the change in that area, it actually has helped my Fibro. as well. I know this sounds weird, but I feel my Disease changing. My muscles are getting stronger and I am developing core strength in places I never thought possible.
I owe it all to my personal routine though. I start with Vemma in the morning and two old goats as often as I need it. If I am working I use Verve (The Energy Drink From The Vemma Series), if not I sometime use it to replenish my body after a workout. Some of you have asked how I am able to do this workout, this routine is how. I follow it to the t! Without this I could not even attempt this workout! No, I am serious!
Think about this with me! Fibromyalgia, is a muscle disease, how could one person do what I am doing, a workout that pushes you to the limit. Before I was on the Mangosteen & Minerals, I experienced muscle spasms everyday, and nothing I tried helped. Now, I am on the Mangosteen & Minerals and I am doing one of the hardest workouts around. I don't have to ask myself How, I know!
Yesterday, after I finished the workout, I was really sore, so I drank a Verve and within minutes I was feeling better. Tomorrow is Kenpo, and again I am ready!
Until next time!

Day 22
Yesterday was the start of a new week, we went back to Yoga this week to start it off and it was an amazing workout. I love what yoga does for me and Fibromyalgia. My son and I did the whole workout and there is only a few position that we can not do because we are not flexible enough to do them, but we are getting better. That is so encouraging! Yoga, has given me everything I thought it would and more. The poses are getting easier each time I do them, but it still kicks my butt, I am excited about my choice of workout and the core strength that I have already gained.
Week 4 is going to be a tough week, because there are a lot of strength exercises built into this workout, the first being Yoga. Today is Core Synergistics a total body workout, that works on different muscle groups to improve your flexibility, balance and coordination. I am ready for this new workout, and my body is getting in great shape because of P90X.
I am a little sore today, but it is a good sore and I gained so much from the Yoga last night. The workout before this one was X Stretch, so my body has loved the last two workouts. They are built into the routine to help you get the most out of week 4, a turning point in the P90X workout. I think it is designed to give you a core stretch before you do a complete workout like the one today.
Until Next Time!

Day 21
Today was the best workout at the best time, I was feeling like I needed a deep core stretch and I got it with X Stretch. My body needed this!
I was so looking forward to this workout and now that it is over I wish I could do it again. For those of you that have Fibromyalgia, X Stretch is the bomb. The different stretches are amazing on the different muscle groups and by mixing it up you get a deeper stretch than you could ever imagine. I would recomend this to anyone that has sore muscles all the time. I took it slow in the begining, but now my stretch is going deeper and deeper each and evertime I do this workout.
Out of all of the workouts this is the best one for me, it is giving me what I need to help strengthen my body and helps to control my disease. I know ths sound funny, but it is true!
Until next time!

Day 20
Yesterday was Kenpo, and I brought it! When I first did this workout, I thought there was no way this was going to do anything for me. Now, I don't feel that way because I see what it is giving my body in return. This workout is tough and for the first time in 3 tries I did the whole workout, and I have to say I feel amazing. Kenpo, if done correctly, is one of the best workouts.
This workout is building in places that I never thought possible. All the punches and kicks are building flexibility and strength in my legs and back, not to mention, my shoulders and arms. I feel better after this workout than after any of the other workouts.
Until next time,
Kevin

Day 19
Yesterday, was legs and back, it was a great workout and I was very sore the day after, but I quickly turned the soreness into stronger muscles. My legs have to be the weak part of my body, but this workout is fine tuning those parts that need the work.
When I started the workout I used weights 10lbs-15lbs, but quickly went to 8lbs because I felt my muscles start to tighten up, I finished the workout by doing the different exercises without weights. I have set the table for things to come with adding weights to this workout. Later down the road I should be able to add different weights without any problem. The legs and back workout focuses on different muscles that I know I don't use, so I am build core strength and inner and outer as well. I know that this routine is helping, because I do not get as tired as most do at work. I am able to go longer hours at work and afterwards finish off the day with a 55 minute workout.
There is no way I can do this without my routine, Vemma in the morning, Verve on the days I work at Wal-Mart, and two old goats when I need it but especially after and before each workout.
I am so pumped right now I can't wait until the next workout, I going to go for now, but I will see you soon!
