P90X is OVER!

So this Saturday concluded our last P90X workout!  This also means we got to take our final measurements and pictures. P90X was a love/hate relationship.  We loved how we felt after each one, but they did take up a lot of time.  That was Kyle's main complaint.  He would come home after a 9 hour day and have to work out for 1.5 hours...so his whole afternoon/evening was now gone.  The weight lifting exercises weren't my favorite.  Yoga X was very intense.  Kenpo was both of our favorite.  That's like a karate cardio kickboxing one.

Now for the results though:

Kyle

Before

Hips: -1.5"

Whitney
Before

After
Changes:
Weight: -1 lb
Chest: -1/2"
Waist: -1"
Gut: 0"
Hips: -1.5"
Sitting Toe Touch: +2"
Also notice in the after pictures that I have a small muscle cut in my arms. :)

As you notice Kyle lost more of everything.  Part of this is that he plays 3 hours of soccer a week on top of this.  So the extra workout helped burn more.  Also, although I didn't lose much weight or measurements I gained a whole lot of muscle, which weighs more than fat, and gained more flexibility.  Like in the sitting toe touch this is where both legs are straight in front of you with feet flexed.  My after measurement was +3".  That's 3" past my toes.  After a session of yoga I can actually do 4+ inches.  So those are my achievements that can't really be measured out.

I loved it, but am definitely ready for a break.  Just trying to do some walks now and slowly work up to jogging.

  2. Kyle needs a tan. Looking good kids. If you're back in Vegas for Christmas time, we should play some racquetball and see how we play when we're more fit
