P90x Round 1 - Day 1

I wasn't impressed with the difference in quantity for push-ups, but I bet my quality has drastically improved. My core is a lot stronger, and my body is a plank with EVERY repetition. I'm also more explosive on contraction of the muscle and slow/steady on expansion.

The weight and numbers speak for the back workouts.

I haven't been 100% on the 90 days, but have been off and on. My focus was on slowtwitch and cardio before I began the program. I have been neglecting long-distance and time cardio workouts. My nutritional guidelines have also become more of a distraction to me enjoying bad food.

I've got 4 weeks until Lavaman Keauhou Olympic Triathlon. I've began my no-carb diet on Friday and paid for it over the weekend with headaches. I think my body has adjusted and I feel lighter already this morning. The machine is burning again.

Eric got in Insanity and it looks fun. He's still sick, so we'll start it next Monday. He'll attempt some P90x tomorrow morning.

I've got Yoga class this afternoon with Mommy for some afer-hours Community College Course. I told her Yoga isn't a walk-in-the-park, but it's an excellent start at getting fit! Twice a week, should be a nice addition to my afternoon program. I'll have to reintroduce noon runs... maybe tomorrow. Okay definitely tomorrow. Bike on Wednesday, noon or afternoon.

Gotta commit!
