Today was day 19 of my P90x workout and the routine for the day was legs and back followed by ab ripper x. Today I didn’t feel right. I headed in the basement full of energy and ready to go but once I got down there I felt super tired and completely out of energy about 10 minutes into the workout. I almost felt like I was going to have to cut my workout short and head upstairs and lay down. I’m not sure what was going on, maybe I’ve been pushing myself too hard and my body needs a little bit of a break. I am approaching the first rest and recovery week of the program and I think I need it.

I did complete the entire workout and I was able to do more pull up in my first couple initial sets. I was pushing myself through the workout but my body just didn’t feel right. I also wondered if it could be because I changed allergy medicine. I usually take Zyrtec D, a common medicine for indoor and outdoor allergies. My prescription ran out so I bought the CVS brand which is much cheaper and is supposed to have all of the same active ingredients as Zyrtec D. Since I’ve been taking the cheaper brand I have been feeling drowsy. I wonder if it is because of the pills or if it is all in my head. I may have to go back to the drug store and pick up my normal brand.

The ab ripper x portion of the work was tough as usual. I still think I’m getting better and better at it each time I do it and I can feel muscles in my midsection that I’ve never had before. 19 days into P90x and I have to say that is working. I’m definitely feeling stronger and can see results when I look in the mirror.
