It’s a bittersweet Symphony, this P90X…

A bittersweet symphony Of course, that’s a reference to the subtly infections “Bittersweet Symphony” by The Verve — a song, I swear, was played for years every time I entered or left an AMC theatre.

Chest & Back is code for Pushing & Pulling. It was primarily different versions of pullups and pushups with some other pull [Continue...]
