So I started p90x on Monday (yesterday) and I officially have black and blue bruises all over my body and my muscles are screaming for some tiger balm. I decided to do the long and lean muscles workout so yesterday I did CoreX and today I did CardioX. There is this whole schedule and I guess I'll keep you updated as my journey goes along. Before I started, I had to buy some stuff from sports authority and take a whole bunch of measurements, which took forever. I bought resistance bands with a door attachment and 8 pound free weights.
Anyway, yesterday I turned my basement into a workout room but I couldn't find my yoga mat. I decided that it wasn't important. I was sorely mistaken. The workout that I was doing consisted of a lot of rolling around on the floor. My friend took a video of me doing it. I looked ridiculous and I was on a hard floor, which decided to take its anger out on my hip bones. And knees. And elbows. I have bruises everywhere and they hurt so much. Oh well.
I woke up this morning in a ton of pain, both because of the bruising and the actual exercising. But of course, I persisted. I did the cardio work out, which was tough but actually a lot of fun. And I brought my yoga mat downstairs so that helped a bunch.
Now I am officially couch ridden for the rest of the night. I feel like an old lady and can't wait to slather my body with tiger balm before bed.
