Like a Pterodactyl, backin' out of trouble...
Comics are about as rad as it gets: Babes in distress, Pterodactyls, ripped dudes with metal helmets...why, it makes me want to run downstairs and do Shoulders/Arms all over again!
You don't have to be a Pterodactyl to "get" girls like Marian, although the warm up portion of Shoulders and Arms is sure to eventually bring them running, especially if you make the "KAW" noise as you're doing it. (Sort of like a late-Triassic pick-up line). I don't think there's been a time where I've watched that video and not felt embarassed for Tony.
Nothing much new to report besides having nearly finished the last few days of Phase 1 and just in time too! We're headed down to Arizona tomorrow for the weekend and it just so happens that my P90x schedule should accommodate me perfectly over the 4 days I'm gone. I have Yoga scheduled Thursday and Legs on Friday, but since I'm going to be busy all day Friday and not even have access to a proper set of weights or a pullup bar, I'll be doing my leg workout Thursday morning right before we head out. This way I can swap my Yoga into Friday evening before hitting the hay (as usual) and enjoy a leisurely Kenpo X session with my cousin on Saturday. That leaves a solid day of rest on Sunday and since the recovery week which begins on Monday doesn't really require a lot of pullups or weights (As far as I know) I'll be able to squeak through Monday and get back on track in Winnipeg on Tuesday. Who SAYS P90x is too hard a commitment to make? It's all about dedication and a littttle bit of flexibility in your routine.
Bringing the Ripper to it's knees
Ab-Ripper X, while still rather hellish, is NOT the obstacle it once was! The Fifer Scissor routine that used to crush my spirit and make me squeal like a baby is now in my rearview mirror (not without a lot of squealing) and it's the Oblique Raises that are the one bastion left against the soft, still fleshy machine that is my mid-section.
Hopefully Arizona doesn't soften me up too much...

Recovery week has core which requires weights - but you could make do with a band. Maybe look into getting one for travel. I am on my second round of p90x and you are one week ahead of me. Keep pushing play and blogging your results!
