in Introduce Yourself
I know, I know. The holidays are here, so why start a workout program now? Just wait until New Years and make that resolution, right? I mean I can see where that got me this year. Well, this morning when I got up and looked at myself I said enough is enough. My 5 year old little girl was right the other day when she said, “Daddy your belly is getting bigger.”

My name is Michael, and I have been putting off P90X long enough. I would start and around week two or three give in and stop. And I would always have a good excuse, or at least in my mind it was a good excuse.

So I will be starting P90X on Monday November 21, 2011. With no more excuses, and nothing but pure focus on gaining my health back.

    My 4 year old asked me the other day if I had another baby in my belly. I told him no and he said well it looks like it. Time for me to start exercising as well.

    good luck dude! the best work out plan is the one you can stick to. no one says you only have to do P90X. do P90X for a week, and then give yourself a break. or whatever. find a routine and a work out that YOU can stick to.

    Well today was the first day of P90X, Chest & Back. My goal was to be up at 4:30 this morning to get my workout in before I had to be at work at 7. Well, since I got off work last night at 11pm, and had to turn back around and start my day shift it didn't work out that way. But I did getit done after I got off of work this afternoon.

    The workout was great. The pull ups kick my butt because I am such a big guy. 5'9" 275 lbs. Felt like a sissy because I had to use a chair most of the time, but it will get better. Tomorrow is another day, time to rest up!

    Little kids are good at telling it like it is, and it's okay because they never mean any harm by it, unlike some adults out there.
