P90X - Week 2

Have you been wondering where we have been? Don't worry...we are still pushing play! Week 2 is a repeat of Week 1 and Steve and I didn't want to blah blah blah about the same things. However, we do have a few comments that we would like to share.

First of all, week 2 doesn't necessarily appear to be getting any easier. We only did 45 minutes of the Yoga Wednesday morning and on Thursday, I had to split the back & arm routine and the AB Ripper X workout between the morning and the evening. I thought it would be bad for me to split the routines, but in the end it actually worked out better for me.

Secondly, it is really important to eat the right amount of food so it can fuel the body before, during and after the workouts. Steve and I are suppose to take in well over 2,000 calories a day, but I am finding this very hard to do. I've never been a big eater, so thinking about eating or what to prepare is a bit challenging.

Thirdly, getting enough rest is really important. If you are exhausted before you ever begin your workout, you are already on a slippery slope. So make sure you get plenty of rest.
