Day 24: Core Synergistics

Well, not much to say today except that this workout is fantastic. :-) Actually, I do have a lot to tell today because I noticed a TON of differences in my workout today including more strength, endurance, and flexibility throughout the entire workout. For the past week, well almost 2 weeks now, I have been adding in Beachbody's vanilla whey protein into my recovery drink and I can tell a huge difference in my strength. Even after completing my entire first round of P90X I wasn't able to perform as well as I did today and I can definitively attribute that to adding protein as well as a better, more "clean" diet.

Diet is KEY to this entire process so if you think you can just do the program and eat and drink whatever you want, then don't expect the results you see from the infomercials. The one, well two, exercises that I felt I most improved on and could see a difference right away was plank to chatarunga run as I did the entire minute without having to quit because my shoulders were beat down. The other one was reach high push-ups because I was also able to do the entire exercise without having to quit and they are both towards the end of the workout. Yeah me!

Today, I ended this workout with a smile on my face (and a whole lot of sweat beads) and I felt SO amazing. I am so thankful for my new found love of this workout because it really is incredible. So much variety and and includes so many exercises to strengthen your entire body.
