The P90 program comes w/ a bonus disk called "Fat Burning Express". I remember trying to do it years ago when I first got the program... I had just started the program and it was way to intense for me, I don't think I even finished the one time. So, last night I busted it out, and it was just as intense as I remember, but this time I got through it. It starts w/ 3 or 4 minutes of strech and yoga and then goes into 30 straight minutes of cardio- no breaks, then 3 minutes of cool down/stretch. After I did it last night for the first time I was drenched in sweat, just dripping... and I felt great! Great just because I finished it for the first time, but great the way I always feel after my workouts. So, I'm gonna add this bonus workout to my regular routine.
I'm reminded of that stupid phrase used by simple-minded people in middle management always say when they cant think of anything original or clever to say to motivate employees, its trite and cliche but I think it applies to me in this case: "You gotta work smarter not harder". Before I was focused on working out 1, 1 1/2, 2 or 2 1/2 hours, but some of those hours were on the wii fit which isn't that intense. So instead of working to some number like 2 hours a day my new focus is doing this intense extra workout, which is only 30 mins. So, from now on it's the P90 routine in the morning for 40 mins +20 mins of wii fit. Then at night it's this intense "Fat Burning Express" for 30 mins. So, it'll only be an hour and a half a day, but it'll be a really intense hour and a half.
