LesMills + P90X!

Mar 29th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Last week Nancy and I started a crazy hybrid routine where we have combined the two programs listed in the title. We are using the LesMills program as a fat burner, and the P90X program, to build lean mass. So far I’m digging the new routine, and it seems to be shredding off the winter [...]



Gotta love 2-A-Days!

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

This morning Nancy and I did the OG P90X workout chest & back. I went HAM for the first half of the workout, forgetting to pace myself. Boy oh boy that was a bad idea; I was paying for it during the entire second half of the workout. Even though I had a hard time [...]



Hard Core ABS + Flow!

Mar 21st, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I had a bit of a recovery day, or light workout day. We did the Hard Core ABS workout, followed by the Flow workout from the Les Mils Pump program. I have to say I really enjoyed the Hard Core ABS workout, they seem to focus a lot on the obliques which [...]



Pressing Play While Sick

Mar 13th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I did the PAP-Upper workout from P90X2. I managed to get sick over the weekend, and I feel like absolute trash. There ain’t no rest for the wicked, so I’ve been working out even though I’m sick. Yesterday wasn’t that bad, and my workout didn’t suffer a whole lot, however today was [...]



The Zac Efron Workout!

Mar 9th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I did something a little different than what we are used to. Earlier this week Zac Efron was on Conan O’Brian plugging his new movie The Lorax. Conan brought up a movie where Zach had to pack on 16 pounds of lean muscle. Zach explained that he hired some bad ass ex-navy [...]



2-A-Days!

Mar 8th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Nancy and I started up 2-A-Day workouts on Tuesday of this week, and it is HELL! Today Nancy and I did the P90X2 Shoulders & Arms workout. This is my favorite workout from P90X2 out of the workouts I’ve done so far. Nancy and I have completed this workout about 5-6 times, and every time [...]



PAP Lower!

Mar 6th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Yesterday Nancy and I switched over to round three of P90X2. According to the program, we were to do PAP lower today, which we did. First of all, I would like to say that the plyocide workout ain’t got shit on the PAP Lower workout. Man oh man that was tough and it got me [...]



Back & Base

Mar 2nd, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

WOOOHOOO, IT IS FINALLY FRIDAY! BEING AS IT’S FRIDAY, NANCY AND I DID THE BACK & BASE WORKOUT FROM P90X2. THE FIRST HALF OF THE WORKOUT WENT GREAT, I WAS MEETING OR BEATING MY REPS FROM LAST WEEK’S WORKOUT. THE SECOND HALF OF THE WORKOUT WAS NOT AS GREAT. I THINK I MAY HAVE PUSHED [...]



P90X2 – Shoulders & Arms!

Feb 29th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I did the Shoulders and arms workout from P90X2. I know I’ve said it in the past, but I absolutely love this workout. Tony really nailed it with this one. I’ve done quite a few arms workouts in my time, and this is by far my a favorite. If I had to [...]



PLYOCYDE

Feb 28th, 2012 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris

Today Nancy and I did the plyocyde workout from P90X, and I was very happy with how we did. Yesterday I had piss pore performance, so I was glad I was able to really bring it today. I was going all out, and not even ten minutes in I was sweating my balls off. While [...]
