For me, Sundays are usually a double workout. My first workout is done before everyone wakes up and the second is done when my youngest goes down for her nap. The one thing I make a point to do is not to let my workouts interfere with family time. I would say I am able to accomplish this about 85% of the time.
Today was not the case. I woke up late after an evening of good music and a couple of good beers. That is not an excuse not to get my workout in, so I pushed through.
AM Workout
This morning was my longest run of the new year. A solid 10k. I felt sluggish the first mile, but then I found my groove. The weather was nice for this time of year, 40 and sunny. I finished in 48:37, about an 8 minute mile.
PM Workout
The afternoon workout consisted of Chest, Shoulders & Tri's, followed by Ab Ripper X. These routines are right out of the P90X program. I am debating whether I should post the exercises, reps and weight. We will see down the road.
This workout pounded me today. I was about halfway through the 24 set routine and I knew I was really going to have to push it. Arms were shaking pretty bad on the side-to-side push-ups. That being said, this is one of my favorite workouts. No repeated exercise.
Ab Ripper X is always a joy to do. 11 exercises, over 300 reps in 15 minutes.
Diet
Yesterday was my stretch day, but I was eating for Sundays double. This means my carb intake will be high, but my calories will be low. Carbs ratio is a little high. If I cut out about 30g, it would have put me at 65%. Right where I would want it to be.
Calories - 1,800
Carbs - 265g (77%)
Fat - 40g (12%)
Protein - 38g (11%)
In good health,
Joe
