Banana rolls OH JOY
I started a challenge on January 5th that goes to April 3rd. I’m doing P90x during this challenge as my way to shed some pounds (you see since my last blog in May I haven’t exactly been a fitness fanatic) so it’s my way of getting back into the swing of things. I’m not doing it by the book but fairly close.
Yesterday was the Core Synergystics workout (with a head cold mind you 
It’s an hour long, somewhat cardio, somewhat core work, somewhat everything kind of a deal (clear as mud huh?) There are some interesting moves, like my personal favourite the banana roll - yep there’s a fitness move called the banana roll (much to my dissapointment it is NOT a pastry filled with banana and whipped cream..which was my initial wish). You start on your belly in superman pose (arms up and legs up) roll onto your side (picture the shape of a banana - see it IS a clever name!!!) then move to your back and other side then go back down the other way and repeat! Sounds like fun huh?
Now don’t get me wrong, I do like being girly but let’s be honest we girls get gassy at times and my only beef with the banana roll is that said gas involuntarily gets out while doing this funky move. And not quietly either. I’m telling ya my husband was at the opposite end of the house and burst out laughing from my "relief of pressure". Now maybe it’s a P90x tactic because then I started to laugh and all the while doing my banana roll I am sure it added to my core workout. So that’s good I guess.
Tonight I’m playing with the line up and I’m going to do the plyo workout (it’s not typically part of the schedule I am quasi following but I love me some plyos We’ll see how that goes.
