X2 Recovery + Mobility - Ok I didn't quite do 90 Mins of foam rolling but did do quite a bit & paused the DVD twice at the upper leg of each side, and beyond that with the workout did the pigeon & frog movements which were so good in themselves. I still can't do the pigeon very well but I'm probably now a tadpole with the frog stretch. Still felt really good and parts still hurt but will get better by the "20th" time or so according to Tony...
Besides that today though I did a 5K run just to start up the aerobic workouts to begin for the marathon proper in April. But I can tell that this P90x2 is such a good workout regiman - I haven't run since we started this program 2 weeks ago (as to not overtrain). YET!!! Running with the same intensity as I did two weeks ago I cut just over a minute off! WTF! Wow, I am impressed... I thought a lot of the "gains" and overall feeling better might just be in my mind. Some endorphins working to keep me going but no real improvements. I was wrong. And the even better part was that it wasn't my legs that were keeping from going even faster it was my lungs...So I need to work a bit on the aerobic training (no surprise) but think the legs will have no trouble! Sean better watch out...
(I bought two additional medicine balls today for the later workouts as well - Bring it!)
