I'm in! I played with it last week to get a sense of what is going on and when to schedule workouts. Learned that on Yoga days I cannot do the workout during my lunch hour because it last an hour and a half. We also have no doorway in this house that the pullup bar will work on. Any ideas?
I'm going to do the lean program. Pushing play on Monday:
weeks 1-3
core synergistics
cardio x
shoulders &arms ab ripper
yoga x
legs &back, ab ripper x
Kenpo x

I might convert over to lean as well. I have a great yoga workout that is very similar that is only 30 minutes. It is called "power Yoga for surfers". I also might substitute that as 1.5 hours is just too long .

If you have resistance bands or tubing you can hook them around something high and sturdy in your home - go down on your knees and pull on the band or tubing to work the upper back muscles. I think they actually demonstrate that option on P90X.

I actually use an industrial close loop hook with bands. It works quite well and the further away you go the harder it gets. Pull ups can really tear on your shoulders and this old surfer likes to save the shoulders for doing what I love most. The bands work really well here.

Or do push-ups instead....that's what I did tonight.

Hi there! Have done this program before but kinda lost motivation half way through. Great idea, would love to join! When/ where do you do the workouts?

 

[bluemtnrunner]

I'm putting off my official start to next Monday, though still either doing a video or an outdoor workout each day this week. The kids' spring break is definitely not the right week to set a workout routine. Everytime I start or get a break from my job, one of them reminds me they need a ride to work or home from work or to the pool or take them kayaking or to the beach or it is time to feed them AGAIN! There are currently SIX teenagers in my house taking up my workout space . Next week they will be safely back at school and my space will be my own.

I do them at my home in Point Washington. Sometimes my wife and a friend join in. My garage is a big workout room that is heated and cooled if need be. I just completed week one. Not too bad. Seems much easier this time. Let me know if you want to jump in. Late afternoon seems to work best.
