P90X MASS Results – Day 95
Light Shoulders & Arms– For those that don’t know, my focus this round of P90X is on building muscle mass so I replaced kenpo-x with an additional resistance training workout. Both my “chest, shoulders, & triceps” and “back & biceps” workouts were considered heavy days. I was using a weight that I pretty much failed on reps 4-8. Seeing that today’s workout was the second time of the week I hit the same muscle groups, I did the complete opposite of the heavy days and used a weight that I was able to do 12-18 reps with…consider it a mid-week muscle confusion technique.
I see no problem hitting the same muscle groups twice in one week as long as you allow your muscles to recover 48 hours (which I did). I am also taking the P90X Recovery Drink which enhances the muscle recovery process. I am a huge fan of P90X but I think it’s necessary to customize it a bit if you are looking to add muscle mass.
ARX – The last two workouts I was able to complete about 95-97%. I always fall short on the “fifer scissors” and “heels to the heaven” exercises. I have been hovering around the 95% range for awhile now so as I am typing this, it’s making me realize that I need to suck it up and fight for those extra reps…next time!
