P90X2 – Balance & Power!

Jan 27th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Happy Friday everyone! I woke up a little late today, however I woke up feeling fantastic. Last week I had to skip the Balance & Power workout, as I was extremely busy last Friday. Today was my first stab at the P90X2 – Balance & Power workout, and while it was very difficult I loved [...]



P90X2 Week2 Complete

Jan 27th, 2012 | By Coach Nancy | Category: Coach Nancy - The Way I See It..., P90X Transformation Diary

I finished off week 2 of P90X2 with Chris.  We are still in the foundation building part of the program which focuses largely on balance and core development.  The weights we’ve been lifting are much lighter than what we’d normally do for a military press or tricep kickback move but since they are paired with [...]



P90X2 Week 1 Complete!

Well this week has been a humbling experience!    I went into this thinking I was in top shape with only a few pounds of fat to peel off and to my complete surprise, found out that P90X2 had something to teach me about combining balance and power. I have felt clumsy with the moves.  [...]

Starting Over – What I’m up to now (P90X2 shred)

Jan 18th, 2012 | By Coach Nancy | Category: Coach Nancy - The Way I See It...

Well the time has come for me to do my usual winter shred.  For the last 7 months I’ve been focused entirely on strength and muscle growth and was not concerned about much else.  I did get very strong and added significant muscle.  But as I added the weight, a little fat crept on as [...]



P90X2 – X2 Core

Jan 16th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I started P90X2!!! I am super excited to start P90X2 and recommit my self to the P90X2 program. The holidays always seem to take a toll on my body. With all the family dinners, it becomes difficult to stay on track with your diet. That is exactly what happened to me, and [...]



What I’m Reading Now

Jan 2nd, 2012 | By Coach Nancy | Category: Coach Nancy - The Way I See It...

I like to read! So it was with great joy that I got a Kindle Fire for Christmas this year. I also got a Kindle gift card so I’m now enjoying both. I like to read good books on health (fitness and nutrition) and occasionally a fun read. I’m doing both right now – here’s [...]
