Hey, I actually followed through with my plan to complete X Stretch today. I of course, had to make it close by putting it off until the 11th hour, but were is the fun in getting it done early.
The last normal week begins tomorrow. I am amazed at how quickly the program has gone by. It seems like I just started only a couple of weeks ago, looking off toward the distant unknown that was Phase 3. Now I sit and contemplate new strategies for life after Day 90. Do I start over again for a second 90 days, or do continue to repeat the 5 week Phase 3 schedule? Should I change up the order and make it my own, or should I look in to P90X+? I was checking out P90X+ today and that my be the way I am leaning, but I think I may not be ready for X+. I still do not think that I have "mastered" P90X(if that is possible). But then again, I was not ready for P90X for the first few weeks, and I have grown tremendously. I still have a couple of weeks to decide, so for now it is just a thought that I am kicking around.

I'm going to continue but "trim the fat". I'm going to use the P90X program but modify it to more my liking. I'm making it 2 sets of 5 day routines that will flip-flop back and forth.
First 5 Days:
Chest Back/Abs
Plyo
Shoulders/Arms/Abs
Legs/Back
Stretch
Second 5 Days:
Back/Biceps/Abs
Plyo
Chest/Shoulder/Triceps/Abs
Legs/Back
Stretch
Rinse and Repeat
Im cutting yoga cause i dont like it. Im cutting kenpo because i dont get that awesome cardio burn that i get from the fast paced workouts. And i rearanged the 2nd 5 days like you accidentally did during week 5 so that i dont get 2 backs in a row. Core Synergystics doesn't float my boat either :P
"My P90X Plus Series is for YOU, if you have achieved a respectable level of fitness and YOU HAVE COMPLETED P90X."(Horton, P90X+ Site)
Check out the new supplemental routines. In particular, Kenpo Cardio Plus since you "don't get that awesome cardio burn that [you] get from the fast paced workouts." Kenpo Cardio Plus claims to have new advanced moves that will bring it to the next level. All of the Plus routines have sparked my curiosity. I haven't, yet, figured out how they fit into the schedule, though. I am under the impression that the Plus routines replace some of the old routines, so under the Plus schedule you would be doing both X and Plus routines throughout the week. I am also a fan of the Seven day rotation, as Recovery is essential to fitness, if you really need to can Yoga, replace it with Stretch(Stretch twice a week). That way you will not loose the flexibility benefits of Yoga and you're not shortening you recovery time between repeats.
From the P90X+ Site:
Interval X Plus
A lot more effective than standard cardio, Interval X Plus propels your heart rate up and down with 3 speeds: recovery, medium, and full-out, creating the most dramatic change in the shortest period of time. (40 minutes)
Kenpo Cardio Plus
This advanced-level Kenpo, with new moves, will shred the most stubborn layer of fat with an all-out self-defense workout that builds stamina, balance, and agility.(40 minutes)
Upper Plus
This monster upper-body workout will defy the plateau phenomenon by blasting all the muscles from the hips on up: chest, back, biceps, triceps, and shoulders, in a complete synergistic P90X way. After this one, you won't be able to pick up a ping pong paddle for a couple hours. (45 minutes)
Total Body Plus
By adding new synergistic moves, your muscles get pumped, then recuperate in stages until you've got nothing left. An unprecedented total-body phenomenon. (45 minutes)
Abs/Core Plus
This advanced new ab/core workout adds 4 different positions (hanging, sitting, standing, and plank positions) to intensify your ab work and shred your midsection even faster. Is a ten-pack even possible? You'll find out. (20 minutes)
