Today I went completely off the schedule. This is crazy! OK, not too crazy. I woke up tired after a poor night’s sleep, with a sinus headache. I wasn’t so excited about doing yoga just two days after the last time. To top it off, I was late getting started. I needed to substitute a different workout.
I decided to go with an old standby: A brisk walk/run on the treadmill, for a mere 20 minutes. Hey, I said I was late, right? For inspiration, I watched the most recent episode of The Biggest Loser (part of it, anyway). Sure, there are a lot of criticisms about the show, some of which I share, but there’s nothing like it to keep you going on the treadmill. You can be inspired, or angry at the contestants, or determined to get in better shape. Take your pick.
The whole workout, including the cool down stretches from P90X Plyometrics, took 35 minutes, with a pretty good calorie burn for that amount of time. At least it got my metabolism going for the day. See you tomorrow, P90X2!
P90X2 Tip of the Day: Sometimes the workout schedule falls apart. Even a short workout is better than none.
