I am now officially halfway complete with P90X (or perhaps I am a quarter complete, as my goal is to do two rounds in a row). This past week was not my best effort. I had some issues with illness which slowed me down, but besides that, I didn’t put forth as much work as [...]

I’ve completed five weeks of P90X…which puts me at just under the halfway mark. I would venture to say that this is further than I’ve gotten in the past (technically, I did more than five weeks last time, but I didn’t do it properly, so I don’t count it). This was also the first time [...]

Yes, I even get up early to do my workouts on weekends. Although I sleep in a few extra minutes, since I don’t have to get to work…but Henry and Joey still get up at about the same time, so I can’t sleep in TOO long. This morning I rocked out Kenpo X, which is [...]

Workout Summary It was Legs and Back day today. This is a workout that doesn’t change from phase to phase (although it is skipped in Recovery Week). It’s definitely the biggest burner of all the workouts, as I generally exceed 1,000 calories burned while doing it (when combined with Ab Ripper X). No major milestones [...]

Workout Summary Today’s workout was Back and Biceps, along with my old friend, Ab Ripper X. I have never done the Back and Biceps routine before, but I was both excited about it and dreading it…bicep workouts are fun, but pull-ups are frightening. Speaking of biceps, there are a lot of curls in this workout [...]

Inspired by Tori, I have decided to do daily blog posts about my P90X workouts. Since I know not everyone is fascinated by this, these posts will likely not be syndicated to my Facebook, but they will still be available via RSS. I have also created a specific RSS feed for just my P90X posts, [...]

I have completed the first month of P90X, which means I am about 1/3 of the way on my journey. When I attempted P90X the first time (last fall), I got about 5-6 weeks into it before faltering. However, this time it’s more of a milestone since I stuck to it with more dedication and [...]
