P90X MASS Results – Day 98
Chest, Shoulders, Triceps – X-ME, this workout absolutely crushed me this morning! I don’t expect the newbies to feel this way just yet but I felt like I pretty much owned all of the P90X workouts by the end of my first round (excluding ARX). I define “own” as I was able to complete each exercise until the time clock reached zero at a high intensity level. If you are not there yet, trust me when I say this…you will be if you continue to press play every morning. Back to my workout, I wore my 40lb weighted vest again today and it makes such a big difference with my rep count. I pretty much ended all of my push-ups on my knees and I was still feeling a ridiculous burn. For all exercises, I used a weight that I was only able to do 4-8 reps. I wasn’t ready to say this last week but if you are able to complete this workout with ease, I highly recommend wearing a weighted exercise vest. I bought mine cheap on Amazon for $75 (included shipping) but I can honestly say it’s worth every penny now that I have worn it a few times. I don’t think the vest is necessary if your focus is on burning fat and not so much on building muscle mass and/or if this is your first round. If you continue to do P90X, there will be a time when you are looking to challenge yourself a bit more so you may want to consider it.
ARX – My goal was to 100% complete this but I was unable to accomplish that this morning. I usually get stuck on the “fifer scissors” but I forced myself to finish…which I did! Unfortunately, I was toast afterwards and I was only able to do 9 “heels to the heavens” so I fell 16 reps short of finishing it…I did complete all of the other exercises.
