Legs and Back
(I did 5 reps for every pull up set -- not bad, gonna shoot for 10 each!)
Watch the first part of this video to see the proper V-Start (you can watch the rest if you REALLY love physics :)

Day 75 - My P90 Non-Hype Testimonial
Legs and Back
The quiet feeling of satisfaction...that sense of accomplishment...the feeling of being a FINISHER!
I had to put it into words:

Day 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 - Gone Fishing
I will be at our family cabin for the Labor Day Weekend. No internet, no phones (text messaging only)...just me and God's country.
I vouch to do (2) workouts over this 5 day span = Kenpo X and Legs and Back
Have a great weekend!!
Day 60 - Two a Days PLUS Treadmill Tonite!!
I'm working two-a-days again today. Why?
1. Planning
2. Preparation
3. Planning*
(*) I had a short week because (a) I worked the DOS in Blaine on Sunday and (b) I'm going to the cabin for the Labor Day weekend tonight, after the treadmill session.
Legs and Back
Delicious! This is one my faves, because there are no repeating exercises (that can be annoying, especially when you hated it the first time!), and the leg exercises are ALL HOCKEY REFEREE SPECIFIC. Sweet!
Remember when I was dead doing the "Sneaky Lunges"?? No more. Bring IT!
Shoulders and Arms
This is the only workout that I skip ahead during each exercise. I mean...come on...they allow like 50 seconds per exercise, and if you are doing 8-10 reps, it doesn't take that long.
So I skip to the next session. And I skip the ballistic stretching. And I skip the Bonus Round.
And it takes me 35 minutes to do the workout. And I love it! (And if Mrs. Sheridan, my 10th grade English teacher, knew I was writing like this, using "And" before multiple sentences, she'd be all over my case-- Sorry, Mrs. S!).

Day 19 - P90X Workout 2
Legs and Back
If anyone out there is following P90X, and you want to be a better skater, whatever you do, DON'T skip (a) Plyos, (b) Yoga X, and (c) Legs and Back.
You'll get more power and more speed/agility!
I love this stuff! I just wish there were more out there who would get on board!

Day 10 - P90X Part 2
Legs and Back
Ever watched any of these workouts? Ever done them? (I know that there are two guys in Duluth, MN who are busting some ass -- I've got to keep working to keep up with them!).
Ever heard Tony Horton say, "This is the Mother of all Workouts?"
This -- Legs and Back -- is the mother of all workouts for those who want to be better skaters.
A new personal best! -- I did 21 Close Grip Pull Ups (Body Weight Rows - paid members know what I am talking about {soon}).
Also...any extended leg workout I pushed myself to actually see how much sweat I could drip off my face...don't tell my wife this, but it was a lot and I loved (kind of) every minute of it!

Day 5 - P90x
Workout #1 of the Day -- YES, accountability-friends!...I am committing to 2 workouts today, because I don't want any of YOU to pass me up!
Legs and Back -
If you have any reservations, questions, or hesitations in buying the P90X program, your money spent on the 12 DVD's will be MORE than paid for with just this workout = KILLER leg workout for skating muscles.
* Single Leg Wall Squats = WOW!
* One Legged Dead Lifts...I could only do 15 and I was sloppy
* Switch Grip Pull Ups - I could only do 4 and I almost fell to the floor and killed myself!
* Sneaky Lunges = 2 minutes and 30 seconds of DEATH!
* Groucho Walk - I did it and boy is that good for those "V-Start Muscles"
* Chair Salutations -- 30 second reps = I did it!!!
