P90X Lean Schedule

For anyone that is interested in my P90X progress, or would like to start the P90X program themselves, below is the Lean Program schedule.  For the most part I'm sticking with the schedule verbatim EXCEPT when it has me doing Yoga X during the week.  The Yoga X routine is 90 minutes long and given the fact that I work out between coming home from the office and cooking dinner, I just don't have 90 minutes to workout like that.  I pretty much plan to do a little switcheroo with Kenpo and Yoga X.

Now, regarding my progress - I've been doing the program for a week, and unfortunately after my second routine (Cardio X) I got a nice little second degree burn pulling dinner out of the oven.  The burn is on the inside of my left arm, right under the elbow, so it's not an easy part of the body to not use.  Needless to say, working out is a bit of a challenge, but I'm still doing it.  I can't workout with the full intensity I would like to, but at least I'm still doing something I guess.  I suppose it's not so bad that it happened in the beginning since I'm still learning the individual moves anyway and wouldn't be able to do them full out anyway but it's still a bummer.  I can't wait for my arm to heal so I can really get to working out!  By then I'll have more progression I hope!
