As you might have noticed, I haven't been updating about my running routine lately. I haven't gotten lazy; I just switched my focus to the p90 workout system instead. I have been doing p90 since last Wednesday, and I have to say that it is very different than I expected. I've heard a lot of people talk about it and how wonderful it is. I was shocked when I learned that it is only two workouts rotated every other day for a month. Plus, I thought it would kick my ass from here to California, but it really isn't that hard. Sure, I can't do all of the cardio without doing modified moves, and I certainly can't complete 10 sets of 10 ab exercises--but I don't stop to take a breather at any point. Maybe I was expecting Insanity...
Regardless, I've been doing it for a little over a week. I'm not sure I believe it will produce fantastic results like everyone claims, but I'm going to keep at it. I fear I will get bored of it before the month finished and I can switch to phase 3-4.... We'll see.

Getting Workouts for Free (ish)
Since I no longer have access to a gym through school and am currently unemployed, workouts have been consisting of running outside, biking outside, and a YouTube workout series called "BeFit in 90." It's been rough since I'm so used to switching up my workouts. And unfortunately, Netflix has stopped streaming any workout videos online so I'm hard up for new routines to do.
Luckily, Hulu is there for me. Sure, it's a little annoying that every five minutes you have to stop your workout for a commercial, but whatever. If you're interested in finding workouts on Hulu, you should try the Bikini Body Makeover series. Today I did the "Tank Top Arms" as my cross-training for C25K. It was 20 minutes of pure strength training for arms and abs, but they also have ones for cardio, legs, calorie burning, etc... There's also the Self: Bikini Ready, Fast! workout which I loved, but Hulu no longer streams. (I need consistency, people!)
Just some helpful sites for those of us unable to pay for workouts or a gym :)
