Day 7 Stretch

Yesterday was day 7 of my P90X journey and it allowed either to do the stretch workout, or use it as a rest day. I opted to do the strecth workout, because I felt that yesterday's Kenpo was a bit easy and wanted to keep the body loose and make as much progress in not only building muscle andlosing fat, but also becoming more flexible.

The workout was enjoyable, I especially liked the back rolls which helped to loosen my back nicely. Like Tony says he is able to do things now that he could not 10 years before because of stretching and Yoga. I knew I was not extemely limber, but the tapes showing muscular guys strecthing as far as some of the girls made me realize that it was just a guy/girl thing.

One thing that did happen during the stretch workout that really bothered/motivated me even more was the amount of fat around my waist that I got really close and personnal with during the workout. I mean, hey I knew I was overweight, but this really showed me how much extra flab I had around my stomach! Anyone else experiece this feeling during this by chance??? In the end I actually even took off my shirt to focus on it more and help to keep motivated and reach further for each stretch and have a picture in my head to motivate me more during every workout. Until tomorrow (actually today again...) keep bringing it!!
