Turning back time at 36

Hello,

I've decided that it's time. Time for me to shed the extra weight. Time for me to clear out the years of gunk building in my veins and arteries. Time for me to regain my life!

My title may be confusing, so let me explain. I've tried the popular P90X workout and it is great. Recently, I've tried another product from Beachbody called "Insanity". Let me tell you... IT IS INSANE! However, at my age (36) it's also hard on the joints. There is a ton of jump training in back-to-back days, and it was just too much. So, here is what I've done.

I took the best of P90X and the best of Insanity and I've combined them for one awesome workout! On Mon, Wed, and Fri, I do the Insanity cardio stuff. On Tues and Thur, I do the P90X stuff. I match the workouts with what the program says to do on the first month. It may sound complicated, but it's really not. Let the X-Sanity begin!!

Feel free to add comments or post questions and I'll be glad to try and answer them. No laughing at my pics, though!

Shoulder and Arms - Thursday

I thought my chest would feel better today, but it doesn't.  Not at all.  And to make matters worse, last night the same guy who got me in the chest with the baseball bat also got a hold of my back!  Tuesday's workout seems to taking a few days to heal from... Anyway, today was a beast too, but since I was working smaller muscle groups, my energy seemed to last a bit longer.

Here is the workout:

Shoulders and Arms Round 1 Round 2

In/Out Bicep Curls (65lb bar) 10 10
