I'll cop to a giggle at the thread title, but I think you intended to give us a little laugh. I think it is totally awesome though- keep it going and build and build. A year ago I was unable to run much either, now I am running 5 miles 2 times a week pluas a long run on the weekend. I too used C25K to get going. Either…

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/30/health/nutrition/30recipehealth.html Spicy lentils. We add a half a sweet potato per serving. It is beyond delicious. Serve alone or on any favorite bread. My wife is a veggie hater and she loves it as well.

Crane for 5 seconds Thursday! That is all.

So I did core syn. last night. I did well. How did I forget I needed weights on many of these? Oh well. i am on recovery week, and have ben forced to jumble the workouts for time and around other plans. I was going to do yoga today, but during the stretch I saw all the fat I want to go away, and thought it would be better…

OK, progress report time!!!!!!! Just wrapped up the heavy stuff from phase 2, heading to Kenpo this afternoon and recovery this week. My weight, well it isnt peeling off. BUT I haven't seen 220 in a couple weeks and I was supplementing with creatine for the last four weeks and that stuff is for weight…

Good yoga for me yesterday. I have a new yoga enemy and it is the Warrior 3 sequence. As I get better at the others, I am getting worse at that. Held crane for a few seconds- you crane holding people are amazing. Followed yoga with a little basketball. I loved it, but my knees did not.

I got treadmill, but I know that isnt an option for everyone, and i prefer outside as well, so I will be interested to hear.

Im back! Does golf and P90X count as doubles? I got in 3 workouts in 5 days, so Im 2 days behind, but intend to make it up in recovery week. Now at home, I just finished back and bi. good gains in the three weeks, I will miss these workouts. They are hard, but I know they are working. Anyway, I played 63 hole in addition…

Legs and back yesterday. My pull up numbers are getting higher now and I am constantly afraid I will not be able to get to my prior number. To my surprise though I do more everytime. My first double figure unassisted pullup number was reached. 11 on the first one. WOW. My legs hurt a little this morning, which probably…

Put in Cardio X in place of yoga. There was no other way. At least I got a couple moves in on the cardio x. Yesterday was my WORST day of the sequence so far by far. Ate pizza. Did that workout that wasnt as good. I still kept the calories close though and I kicked *kitten* with a 5k this morning on lunch break. Headed…

Nailed the 30-25-20-15. Even had enough left to squeeze out 14 on the 15#. I don't think I can do more than 30 on the top end (will be trying next week though) , but the bottom end is strong. Now to be fair. I took too much weight on the hammers right before and only did 6 reps in and 6 out, which isnt bad, but did…

If you're doing that, Im doing 30,25,20,15. I'll let you know how that goes. Your travel plan seems gruesome. (though I'm bringing my stacks with me next week as well)
-
Monday morning y'all! I like taking time off the thread, so much good stuff to respond to! I wish I would have brought my stuff for a lunchtime run today, I was going to but decided against it, your stories are inspiring me to go go go though. Layla- that little doggie better come home soon. I feel for you. Meghan- those…

Oh my austin, that is awesome. I am going on 5 hours of sleep today myself- and we have indian planned tonight so i am going to eat smart and yummy myself. Thankfully I am on rest day, but I still need to run. I was considering skipping too, but if you can do plyo- I can do 3 miles. Thanks for the inspiration, I wont let…

FWIW, I naturally inhale and exhale unless I develop a side stitch, at which point I inhale and exhale more like you guys are describing. I have actually never heard of "learned breathing" while running- swimming yes, but not while jogging. FYI I run 10-15 mi/ per week and am training up to a half marathon this fall. I…

Will need full support of you guys in here for the next two weeks, I am entering the most challenging part of 90 days. I work 4ams the next 7 days, which is followed by 7 days of golf vacation. I have it all worked out how I'm going to keep going (since I am committed) but may need you guys to kick my *kitten* every now…

Usually the ones with "bikini pics" in the subject line. amiright? or amiright or ami right?

newaustinite. My wife started with me, but fell out, she's been good about her running though. I trained with a partner once before on p90x and we couldnt make our schedule match up for 90 days and failed. I choose to go it alone this time.
-
UGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Sorry guys, but I need to vent in here. So I went to my p90x studio to do legs and back. I dont need to do all the workouts in my studio, but I DO need to do my pull up videos out there. So little hockeyman (hockeyboy? 2.5 yrs.) usually tools around with his toys and whatnot while I get ripped. I…

Sounds like maybe you can skip rest day this week to get back on track? Sounds like you had a great weekend(other than the yard work).

The dial in weights are awesome. I have a lighter set of those (up to 25). My heavier one (up to 50) is a little more cumbersome to get to the -5's. Enjoy the pushups.
-
Great stuff. As fit as I think I'm becomming, I couldnt imagine kenpo WITH weights, so truly impressive Bob. Get after that legs and back today, way deep in those sneaky lunges.

I most definately have a "fat picture" Seeing that photo was )and still is) enough to keep me going. I had no idea I had grown so.

strip set = 30, 20, 15, 10...the 30s were tough, the 10s were not. When I did this workout before (2+years ago) that was rough.) FWIW I was sore in the back and bis all day. And I'm beginning to like my "guns" as well- getting nice and bulbous.
-
For those of you not on my friend list... Although my weight is only down 5 lbs. since p90x began, I took measurements for the first time in a month today and I'm down 2.25 inches in my waist and a full one in my neck. My chest is now 2 full inches wider than my waist, so my "v-shape" is coming along. Transformation is…

Great Plyo Sunday. Went over just a tad on calories ( could have had beer or ice cream, i had BOTH!) Good back and biceps. Probably easiest workout so far to me. Don't get me wrong, I was cooked on pull ups at the end. (Max rep pull ups =3 unassisted, 5 with chair) but i undershot strip sets, making it too easy at the end.…

HEY! GUYS! Thanks for tellin' me ab ripper was included on all the weight DVDs. CST was a motha'. Made me feel like I hadn't been working out at all. what a change up in terms of challenge. I don't know how well I did, but I do feel I brought it. I love the shoulder work, was pretty wasted on push ups by the water break (…

I recently broke through a plateau (lasted about 20 days). I stayed the same, maybe up a small small bit, but when I broke through, it was 4 lbs. at once!
