Performed yoga routine today because I don't have dumbbells or resistance bands at home with me for the scheduled back/biceps routine. I am moving the back/biceps routine to tomorrow when I'll have access to dumbbells.
I am getting better at the yoga due to new concentration on the ab-ripper x routine where you really work your core. Well, even my shoddy core is improving and making the yoga workout more rewarding. The longer and better you can hold a pose the more your body is getting a workout. There seems to be a lot of synergy in these P90X workouts. Still surprised how much you sweat from yoga.
I'm really psyched that my flexibility is improving so much. Now I'm going to heat up some wings and, without guilt, devour them during the Super Bowl along with several Bud Lights.

Day 4 - Yoga
I feel great after yoga. Easily my favorite routine thus far.
I was not surprised at how difficult it was to perform because two of my friends who did P90X told me to watch out for the yoga. Also, it was HUGE to invest in a yoga mat so I would not slide around while trying to contort myself into the poses.
My wife did the routine with me and she stated that this P90X version of Yoga is pretty much the intermediate level of yoga. I was able to keep up just fine, but there were a couple moves that I just was not able to perform.
I was surprised how much I would shake when holding a particular pose. I was sweating through the first phase of the program and felt very relaxed at the completion of the routine. My flexibility improved even through just one session of this stuff. I'm going to continue doing yoga after the completion of this p90x stuff -- it's that good. Flexibility is something I've never been very good at, and it's a lock that this discipline is great for the ol' flexibility.
Next up, I will talk about equipment I've purchased for this ever more expensive program.
