p90x


After two whole months of swimming at the YMCA, I remembered that I hated it. Poor people, scrotum pool water and buzzing florescent lights is no way to spend any part of a day. So, I have decided to take the p90x challenge. The first part of the challenge was spending $100 on workout DVDs. The second part would be watching them.

Step One: Watch video entitled "Bring It". Done.

Step Two: Take "before" photo. Check.

Step Three: Get completely ripped.

Hopefully this won't just be more "magic beans", (ie: Occilococcinum, The Master Cleanse, Herbal Supplements, Perfect Push up, Dr Gillian McKeith's 24 Hour Detox) as I am know to be a sucker for that shit.

Living in Ohio again is a total trip. Sometimes, I admit, it can be a bit depressing, like, are you people living in a bubble? Why do you say expresso instead of espresso? Why do you need to add an "s" to the end of every business or restaurant? People are larger here, portions are bigger and very rarely do you need to move. In fact, this must be a huge market for those electronic scooter things. So, I'm doing the math. This+that-scooter=trouble. I don't want to be fat, so I must work out. And while I'm at it, I want to not have twiggy arms.



Update: I "brought it" this morning with the Chest and Back DVD, as well as The Ab Ripper. Look out, you guys, look out.

man. let me tell you - those dvd's really help.

i am a big fan of going and exercising, but those dvd's help shake it up. i promise that if you stick to it for even a couple of weeks, you will notice changes in how your clothes fit and how you move. your body will just feel stronger.

these days i use the dvd's as work-out supplements when i don't feel like going to the gym. my motto - is to break a sweat everyday.. so if i don't feel like strength training or running.. i hit up the 'core synergistic' dvd the 'cardio X' or do some pilates. looking forward to seeing how this works for you.
