P90X: End of Week 7
P90X still kicks my ass on a pretty much daily basis. It's been harder to find the motivation to really push myself through the entire workout and still eat correctly, but I found a good second wind this week ( Read more... ) -
P90X: Day ~40 of 90
Still doing the P90X thing, and it's still a bitch, but I have definitely noticed some changes. First, I'm in pretty decent shape. I can now run the length of 30 feet before heaving my lunch. That's easily three times as far as before ( Read more... ) -
P90X: Day 17 of 90
Well, two weeks down, 11 to go. The first week was terrible - every exercise felt like I was using poor form and struggling to get through it. The second week was also terrible, and although I was able to give it a bit more (let's call it 85%), I was in awful pain every day, and flat out exhausted around the clock ( Read more... ) -

The kind of thoughts that go through your head while you are pushing yourself to your limits (however small those might be ( Read more... ) -
P90X: Day 7 of 90
Stretching. Just what the doctor ordered ( Read more... ) -
P90X: Day 6 of 90
Finally, respite. Today was Kempo, a cardio program based on some simple kicks and punches. I was able to crush this workout, from start to finish. I'm sore as hell from yesterday's pullups, though. My lats are on fire.
Hosting a party tonight so hopefully the eating (drinking) won't go to hell, and I'll still be able to do tomorrow's workout ( -
P90X: Day 5 of 90
Legs & Back. Excruciating and awful, and I felt like I had terrible form, even using a chair to spot myself on lunges and chinups (which he considers "back" exercises).
Also did abs again, and I feel like there's no progress yet. I hope I make it over this hump, because the beginning of this 3 month program makes the rest of it seem absolutely
