P90X - Day 51

Week 8, Day 2

(extra phase 2 week)

Workout:
Core Synergistics
58 min.
(HRM's battery died ...)

Also my workout included 30 min. playing on the Wii. And, 10 min. trying out my new Hip Hop Abs (HHA) "secrets" workout (Shaun T shows you how to do it).

I got my workouts in. I briefly had visions of making up yesterday's workout and doing today's workout ... but, I ran out of time, and really needed to get the nap in. Plus, I had to input a friend of mine's Wii number into my Wii ... and well, while it was on, I figured a little gaming was in order. And, I really wanted to break open the HHA workouts and try them out. I ended up only doing the little "first" one ... just to see.

Naptime is important. It sucks having to be up for 25 or 26 hours straight without the nap!!
