					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://vitalitydetective.com/i-graduated-to-dumbbells/#comment-40&quot;&gt;Richard Harrison&lt;/a&gt;.

I think you&#039;re right Richard about the Core Syngergistics which by the way is one of my favorite workouts of P90X. There&#039;s just no way for us to develop a strong core or strong abs if nothing else is in shape. 

In regards to you being able to comment and not update your blog, well I guess it takes time to sit down and gather our thoughts. It&#039;s been harder for me to keep up with my blog lately with all the writing I&#039;ve had to do for my classes... Today I wrote 3 essays and a total of about 6,000 words because I &quot;had to&quot; but what&#039;s interesting is that I don&#039;t feel pressure to write here and I do it anyway because I love to. I only find myself having difficulty at times whenever I am tired or have too much on my plate. At least it&#039;s the writing in the blog that I treat that way... I&#039;d much rather it be that than my workouts :)

I always appreciate your comments though, it makes me realize that there are people out there reading what I write and it makes me happy :)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I started out using the resistance bands mainly because they were easy to store but I found the same thing you did: some of the routines just don&#039;t work well with them. So at week 5 I added DB&#039;s. I&#039;m using 10 and 20, mostly the latter.

I like your observation about the Rev Abs covering more than the name implies. It&#039;s amazing how we tend to hook our minds onto the marketing concepts despite our actual experience with various products. Seems to me that most ab-oriented exercise is also core oriented. That&#039;s certainly true with P90x. In fact I think Core Synergistics does more for my abs than Ab Ripper. But together they&#039;re great.

How is it I have time to comment on your blog and I can&#039;t get mine updated? :)
