Week 3 done! Complete! Finito! It would feel like much more of an accomplishment if my brain wasn't constantly thinking I'm almost half-way complete. Stupid Insanity time frame is still dominating my brain. So this week I pushed myself in retaliation. Every workout, I tried one weight higher than last week. Though I was not able to do that consistently, because in the end my muscles were not ready.
Now the 3rd week, I saw results. My arms had muscles flexing as I worked out. My buttocks looks better! I can actually see the outlines of my muscles on my leg even when I am not working out. Just walking around, I can see it. (And yes I have checked myself out at work as I walk. Blame all the mirrors available at work). Right now, my back is feeling sore. My legs are fine though, which is kind of disappointing. I wanted to feel the burn! Yup definitely can see myself become a fitness junkie until Sunday rolls around. According to C's Jawbone Up, we haven't even taken 1K steps. Sunday Football (Funday), is really just Sunday Lazy-Day.
Comparison to Insanity: Unlike my third week of Insanity where on the scale I noticed no difference. I am seeing it with P90X. Now my weight is still about the same. However my body fat % has dropped dramatically. Since it is a body fat measurement from a scale, I trust it with a grain of salt. I doubt that I dropped from around 23% to 19% in just 3 weeks, because I am not seeing that around my waist. However, I do believe the directional change. In addition its stayed under 20% for almost a week now. So its not a one time glitch. Verdict - I am liking my P90X results more than Insanity.
