Day 2 - p90x Lean (Cardio X)
This post was delayed because I was really busy yesterday and didn’t get a chance to do the graphs until today.
I do find that the Lean version of p90x isn’t really very intense. Am I supposed to do the lean in addition to the classic? Well either way, I’m going to stick with it like I had planned. Looking ahead to the future, I realized that I wouldn’t be able to do the shoulders, arms, and ab ripper X like planned because I have an aerial class tonight and I need my shoulders to be in fresh for the class, so I’m planning to postpone today’s workout and just do it tomorrow.
However, I did do Cardio X yesterday and it went really well. I worked up a good sweat and while I wasn’t quite ready for it to be over when it ended, I felt like it was a good thing. I kept track of my heart rate using my rad Suunto T6 heart rate monitor. Since it can save the data as XML, I already had a program to generate the heartbeat beats per minute and the “EPOC” which is a suunto thing. Here is the chart:

One thing that was quite out of control this weekend was my eating. I was very conscious the entire time that I wasn’t eating well, but I just didn’t care by the time I got to eat. Mainly because of the hectic schedule this weekend, I didn’t get my usual 5-6 meals a day, but mainly ate 1-2 fairly large meals. I don’t like doing that, but at least during the week, it’s easier to do it.
