P90X Workout

A week ago I began the P90X workout program. I have gained a lot of weight over the past couple of years due to being less active. I decided that needed to change. I wanted to drop the weight and get into the best shape of my life. I also want to eat better than I have in a long time. This means less pizza, pop, and other bad things like that. This is an extreme workout. I wasn't sure if I could do it or if it would hold my interest. After the first week, I grew to like the workouts and even look forward to them. I've never been one to workout regularly, but with this program, it looks like that will change. There's a different type of workout everyday and it incorporates a lot of athletic moves from a variety of sports.

The first day was all about chest and arms. I had a hard time getting through the warm-up! I couldn't believe how out of shape I was. As the days progressed, I found myself able to push myself a little further. I'm skeptical about getting ripped in 90 days, like they claim, but I'm going to continue to push myself more and more everyday and see what happens. The first week was more of a feeling out process, so I didn't push myself as hard as I could have. With a few adjustments of form, and equipment, I think I will be on the right track soon.

During the next 90 days (well 82 now), I will try and chronicle my journey to getting into shape and we will really see if this P90X will do what it claims. With my travel schedule for work, it's going to be a challenge to get this done day in and day out, with the limitations a hotel room has, but I'm determined enough to take the necessary equipment with me so I can stick with this program.

Wish me luck everyone!
