I kinda had to force myself to do this workout today - I wanted to spend some time on the trainer, but as I've gotten older and mor experienced with this stuff, I also know I have to parcel out the novelty of something to keep it from getting old. Plus, while the benefits of the upper body P90X workouts are debatable, there's really no question that the legs routine is worthwhile.
Some of the numbers today are better than before (such as 13 reverse grip chinups out of the gate), but there were a few sets I had to take a break earlier. Overall, there were still 2 more than last week (76 vs 74). Actually, now that I think about it, it's starting to get impressive - inching closer to 100 pullups total. Granted, they are 8 and 10 at a time, but still.
I also upped the weight on some of the leg stuff today, going from 4 kg to 10 lb. I may feel that over the next day or two, especially in the calfs.
The only other thing of note is that there was no runners knee pain in my left knee. I had wondered whether doing this workout today would be a good idea, but after waking up with only very minor residual inflammation (my god, how many ways is Yoga going to be proving itself to be so damn healing! It's starting to border on rediculous), I figured I shouldn't have a problem with doing a bunch of lunges.
