I was really running late today, partly because I was trying to get caught up on this blog! As a result, my main goal was getting through the workout with a minimum of pauses and skipped exercises, so I could get back on track for the morning routine.
As I have mentioned, I am working on using the stability ball for more exercises than I did at the beginning. I had better form today on Mountain Climbers using the ball. I did the Sphinx to Plank Roll Up with the ball, and it actually helped, because I have difficulty raising both forearms off the floor at the same time. That’s why I never liked the Sphinx push ups! I tried the Crawly Crab Press with the ball again, but tumbled over after a couple of repetitions. Oops.
I didn’t do the bonus round again this week, due to lack of time, and I skipped a couple of exercises as it was getting close to my stopping time. I need to start earlier to correct this problem. I had to shorten the cool down and stretch, too.
How do you manage the time required for some of the P90X and P90X2 workouts? Do you memorize the workout moves and do them at your own pace, rather than follow Tony? Do you skip exercises, or the second half of the workout if necessary?
