P90X Adventures: Week 13 Day 1 Yoga X

So today marks the start of my final recovery week for P90X. It kinda feels like a victory lap. This is now the 2nd time I've gone all the way through Yoga X non-stop.  It's incredible.  It's just so astonishing how much more flexible I've become in 3 months.  I'm still not able to do a number of the moves with great form, but I can at least get into all of them which is crazy.

At this point, the toughest still are the Yoga Belly Seven moves.  They're crazy.  They're essentially like longer held versions of some of the Ab Ripper X moves.  They're murderous, but at this point, I'm feeling the burn and all I can think of is how awesome it's gonna be to see the eventual payoff from this stuff.  It's basically taken me about 70-80 of the 90 days to finally get to the point where I can start working on my abs  and as I figured, I'm gaining muscle but that's just kinda pushing the belly fat out.  This definitely presents a bit of a discouraging feeling because it looks as if my gut is expanding rather than contracting, but I have to remind myself that there's friggin' muscles under those layers.  It's still the typical head games we all face and when I really look at things, my waist is still moving down.

I've been thinking for the last week or so about what I plan to do once I'm actually finished with my 90 days.  ..

Do I take a couple weeks off?

Do I move on to my new Rev Abs workout?  

I've definitely come too far to go back on my momentum that's for sure.  Also, since I've gotten to where I can perform P90X fairly well, I'm still not as awesome with every routine.  So I plan on just continuing straight into another round of P90X next week.  There's really no point in taking a break.  I know that keeping on this path will get me to where I wanna be.  It's still hardcore but it's getting easier to perform well and if I keep it going my shit is gonna get ripped son!

That said, I'm excited to see how I do on Core Synergistics tomorrow!
