This blog is documenting the most serious attempt I've ever made to get fit. P90X is 90 days of daily workouts banging around with dumbbells, chin ups, cardio, yoga and martial arts. Tony Horton runs the program and it's amazing. The key to this program is push play every day. You also have to eat right. I'm doing that for sure with a healthy, portion controlled mix of chicken, fish and beef. Supplements are part of the program too. I have a meal replacement shake in the morning and a protein recovery drink at night. Wish me luck and stay tuned by subscribing to my blog via the RSS feed in the toolbar at the top.

Day 28 - Chest, Shoulders, Triceps


Phase two is in full effect. Back to the weights and pushups today - I'ma gonna be sore tomorraw! This is what is great about P90X...you go through Phase One to get your body ready for the more advanced rigors of Phase Two and so on. The pushup variation today was great. Who knew there were so many versions of one of the most simple exercises known to man. For all we know, cavemen may have been doing some of the pushups I was doing today...cuz you know hunting saber tooth tigers was not a trip to Whole Foods!

Be Good People! Keep Pushing Play and Bring It!

Day 26 - Yoga X


Last routine of the final week of the first month of P90X. Tomorrow is Rest Day and then Sat I dive right into Phase Two of the three month P90X training. I did well tonight...was running out of calories toward the end, but I found more on the mental side to finish pretty strong. Back to weights on Saturday. Looking forward to the pump again and I know you all are too. See you Saturday...but if I press play tomorrow night for X-Stretch...then I'll see you Friday.

Bring It X Style!!

btw, Chair Pose is awesome...

Day 25 - Core Synergistics


This workout felt much better this time. Always gotta get that 1st one under the belt and then the 2nd time around, you can focus on getting in the groove and really work the core. By the way, today I wore some suitpants that I had my drycleaner take out about 2 mos. ago. I threw them through the drive-through window and told the girl to "take them out as much as you can...I don't know what's going on".

Today, I could probably fit the New Phone Book between the pants and and my backside. What's going on now!

More "Recovery Week" with the Kenpo routine. Left shoulder felt a little dead, but powered through the deal. Short blog tonight. I know you all look forward to reading the daily report. Tomorrow is stretching, so don't expect much til Thursday when I get Yoga routine under my belt again. Maybe you can use the time you save from reading this entry to looking at the pics and older posts to see the progress of P90X.
