P90X – Day 40 – Legs, Back, and ARX

Seeing Improvements

Legs and Back are a constant switch between leg exercises and pull-ups. You end up doing 6 different rotations on pull-ups. That being said, I am really seeing improvements with my pull-ups. Embarrassing enough, I couldn’t do 1 pull-up day one. Today I did 7 reverse grip the first round and 5 the second round! This is huge for me! The rest of my pull-ups were improvements as well. This is such a great motivator and really got me jacked for my day.

JACK3D

Speaking jacked, last night I stopped over to Vitamin Shoppe and picked up a refill on JACK3d. Talking with a few workers there, they recommended the Fruit Punch flavor. I have only used the Lemonade before, so I decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately I am not a fan. It is a little too sweet for me first thing in the morning. I will be heading back today to exchange it for Lemonade. If you are using JACK3D, it is on sale right now at Vitamin Shoppe. I believe it is $27.99. Like everything, I am sure you can find it cheaper online, however I like the convenience of stopping by the store, talking with the workers and comparing items.

One last note, the worksheet for Legs and Back is messed up. It only lists the pull-ups and the week numberings at the top are all off. As such, I will be creating a new sheet today and also creating a downloads sections on the site.
