Well, I didn't really mean to take today off. Hence I'm giving it a title of 'rest.'
Consider this my first blunder in 100+ days.
Gotta get my game back in gear this weekend and next week. Starts with kenpo (or some sort of cardio) tomorrow.

(Round 2) Day 11: Stretch X, Rest
Traded yoga for an off day today.
Next week I plan on working out more than giving in to p90x's recovery week, so today was an off day.
I haven't run in a while. Just haven't had a ton of time lately. Perhaps this weekend I'll try to get back into it. I've gotta say that when I was running consistently I did notice a difference in my body. Looked thinner and definitely felt thinner. Maybe my recovery week will just be a lot of running.

(Round 2) Day 10: Shoulders and Arms, Ab Ripper X
While my numbering restarted on day 1 of Round 2, today is officially day 100. Let me go back to Day 10:
"Double digit days. If I ever get to triple digits it means I'm doing this program (for better or for worse) a second time."
I'd say this is definitely for the better. Quadruple digits? Don't count on it. It'll be 2013 when that day comes.
Shoulders and arms today. I know I've said it before, but I should get some dumbbells. Bands are going to keep cutting up my arms, which is good, but I should add some size to my biceps.
Everything else was good today, ending with abs.
Yoga day tomorrow, we'll see what transpires.

(Round 2) Day 9: Plyometrics
Plyo today, no run. 20-30 mph winds. Wouldn't have been fun.
So yea, just stuck to plyo. Nothing special, lots of jumping around.
Hoping the weather stays nice the next few days so I can get some more runs in. Shoulders and arms tomorrow, along with ab ripper x.

(Round 2) Day 8: Chest and Back, Ab Ripper X, Run
Week two has begun. Chest and back, one of the more painful and productive workouts in my opinion.
Diamond pushups are the toughest ones of the day. I've never tracked my pushup numbers but maybe I'll start. Wish I had thought of that prior to today.
In fact, I never track my numbers during chest and back, pullups included. Their tip for pullups is to go down to a full extension and then pull yourself back up. I've always come up short of doing that, I guess trying to fulfill my desire for a greater number of reps. However, today I gave the full extensions a shot. Generally I can do 16-20 reverse grip chinups. Today? 12.
After that went for a run. Stepped outside and realized it was raining. Only did 1.5 miles in the steady drizzle.
Finished up with abs. Nothing more to say about Tony and the gang other than the fact that they're still so much more ripped than I am.
Plyo(?) tomorrow.

(Round 2) Day 7: Kenpo
As I noted when I started round 2, I'm going to take some liberties with these 90 days. I took another one this weekend, switching kenpo and my off day.
So today, rather than resting, I did kenpo. It's kind of getting stale by now. Perhaps next week I'll switch in Cardio X or a long run.
No running today due to the dreary and rainy weather.
Round 2, Week 2 starts tomorrow with chest and back. And ab ripper x.

(Round 2) Day 6: Stretch X, Rest
That's right, today was supposed to be Kenpo. What of it?
Took my off day today. No running. No Kenpo. Just a day of eating right, having a baseball catch, and thats.about.it.
Kenpo tomorrow. So far, enjoying round 2.
