Recovery Week

I'm in the Recovery Week. This morning I did the Core Synergistics, and tonight I went to the gym for a Crossfit Session. It actually felt good to do both. Now I'm going to bed.

Week 7 is OVER!

Today is Day 49 = Rest Day, I'm not doing anything fitness wise, but unfortunately I had to go to work for the most part of the day. Tomorrow Sunday, I will be starting a new recovery week with lots of Bananas...Ayaaaaaaa!

More pull-ups...more pull-ups...

I have not done pull-ups in awhile and it did not feel too bad. I kept an eye on the count from the previous weeks, and got a few more in at each step.
I now really see the benefits of taking a few days off during this program, and jumping back in it.
My Tip of the Day: "watch yourself before you wreck yourself!"
P90X is a very demanding program; and bringing it 6 days a week is not easy...so take some time off if you need to.

Starting Week 7 a week late

I am not taking any medicine anymore. I started week 7 last Saturday but realized how much I sucked after 2 days; bad performance, very fatigued, wheels were basically falling off.  So I decided to take the rest of last week off, and maintain strength and cardio with a couple of cardio kickboxing workouts and crossfit, and restart week 7 from scratch. So here I am today on Day 1 of Week 7. On the Shoulders/Triceps/Chest program, my performance was still overall better than on week 6. Tomorrow I'll be going back into the dreaded Plyometrics (I hate that one).
My Tip of the day: if you're really tired, take time off and come back with a vengeance!

Day 40 - Week 6

I'm still running on Prednisone and Zipac, and this week is going fairly well. For the first time, during the Plyometrics, I was able to do the Hot Foot (1 leg does cross shape for 1 minute) all the way through on both legs, nice!
The pull-ups are getting a little bit easier, but I still suck at pull-ups; It's just not my thing :( 
My shoulders look better, belly is flatter, cardio has improved; I am still falling a little behind on Ab Ripper X, even if I start before Tony. Oh well...
I reached 150 lbs on the scale this morning (6 lbs less than on Day 1).
Could the steroids have anything to do with better performance ????
