A valuable lesson was learned about taking breaks from P90X & P90X3 during the holidays: dont. I have a high metabolism and ride a bicycle 5-10 miles daily. So, in the past whenever I missed a day or three (Ive also been a grad of the program from years ago and basically use it for maintenance), it was no big deal to jump back on the program and not lose a thing in appearance. Physically as of late, I saw no loss in lean muscle. So I let things lapse even more, since before thanksgiving, and now its like Im starting some of the aspects of my workouts all over again. I mean, my reps were like half my usual,needed more water breaks and pausing the video more often. I know it seems like common sense to continue exercise even when you look in the mirror with personal pride and it seems you can take a break. But, even your eyes, apparently, can get lazy and add to the procrastination. The only way I got over p90x grad laziness in the past was to keep it up with p90x3. In other words: looking fit is not the goal. It is the side effect. STAYING fit is the goal. Happy New Year, my beachbody family.
