Okay, it's time to fess up. So everyone should know that I had a great trainer for a while and he introduced me to a great massuse. Well, I can no longer afford the trainer but I can still afford the massuse (thank god). So, my massuse mentioned the P90x to me. That he is a BeachBody.com coach and has picked up his Shakeology and the P90X Insanity. So a couple weeks ago I told him I was interested in the program. He said it would be good since I can't afford my trainer and well i'm a pretty active person so it should be a good program for me to start. He brings his wife's videos at our next session and well I had to try it out. I tried it for three days straight. Started with the Stretch, Arms & Shoulders then the Core Syndergies. HOT DAMN!! The great thing was that I was able to get through the workouts. Of course I had to modify a few of the push-ups sets that I had to do. But it felt awesome! The thing was that I didn't feel it right away but I felt it the next day. By day four I was like damn! I skipped the yoga and the cardio. I went to gym to get those in. I haven't been that dedicated just yet but I'm going through each DVD once then I want to officially start the 90 day regimen. Which will be interesting since i'm going to be traveling a few days within the 90. Will have to figure out how I keep those exercises on track.
So this morning I got up at 5:45 am - trying to get up by 5. Hopefully will get there. By 6:15 I had my coffee, my cereal and was getting ready for the Legs & Back workout then I hit the Ab RipperX. Wait do you think i'm done? Oh Hell NO! I got my jacket, my ipod, Nike+ and hit the road for a 3.5 mile run. So this should be a typical day for me. This is my old schedule I'm trying to get back to. Then I was at Starbucks by 9:10 for a meeting. Yep, In true Artie style I was a little late. What can I say...It happens.
Well, tomorrow I will be doing KenpoX. It looks like some sort of kick-boxing class on steriods. I'm sure it will make me burn!
BTW - My eyes are back to normal. The swelling finally went down in timr for a press conference we had yesterday morning. Thanks to my girls who keep checking up on me. Much Love and Appreciation!!
Irma and Jeanette you are now inspiring me to get with the P90X and give it a real chance. I'm there! Hopefully, I will catch up to y'all.
Until Next Time...Tootles

Hey Girl,
ReplyDeleteSo Great to see that you are trying P90X! I am on day 28 and it is tough, but SO worth it! Sounds like you have a pretty good support system! I'm not sure if your coach gave you information about the support forums, they are SUPER helpful. You can talk with others who are on the same journey as you. If they didn't tell you about it, check out: www.BeachBodyCoach.com/JillianTirado and take a look. It's free and there is a lot of support. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, or even if you just need a little bit of support. I know that this can be difficult, I recently lost 30 lbs, and it was tough. Good luck, and DON'T GIVE UP!
