P90 X results after 60 days

I’ll keep things simple today and post a pic of my results again after 6o or so days, below the results I believe speak for themselves.  I’m inching ever so closer to my goal and I have little less than a month to go , next post I will add a picture of my back and you will be amazed to see the difference, especially the love handles.   I promise the last picture will be a lot more appealing ladies as I’m looking into laser hair removal, and I plan on getting a nice tan. lol .  As per my workouts, there really isn’t nothing to report on expect for, it was a back and leg day , however my it band is so tight I opted to do just back, I did do interval aerobics in the morning though, so that definitely counts for something.  I’m going to have pull the roller out and work on that it band. Anyways here’s a glimpse of my progress so far

P90 X Last week of Phase 2

Day 43

So 47 days to go , so almost half way there, and what do i think of my progress and the effectiveness of the program so far.  To be honest the p90x has really changed my life, I’m seeing results, I’m getting stronger and most of all Shanna and I are having fun.  It’s amazing when you stick to it and bring the intensity each and every workout how amazing you feel.  I’m proud of Shanna, she can now do 5 unassisted pull ups yesterday, that’s 2 more than last time.  Day 60 will be my next progress report and I’m expecting good results.  I haven’t weighed myself since last post, I’m going on what I see visually.  I believe my arms are more muscular and bigger .  I can’t wait to see the rest of my love handles to melt .  Overall I can do everything with more ease, I never feel short winded and my cardiovascular has vastly improved.  I do need to purchase a a new pair of running shoes, I can feel the support getting a little softer when I land during plyo-metrics, and the support is not there when I tend to over pronation .

Well That’s all for now folks, and a personal note to add I prefer the blue raspberry flavor more than the fruit punch version of Dark Matter .

P90X Phase 2 Day 4 and 5

Wow it’s been a month so far and the results Shanna and I achieved have been nothing short of awesome.  First off Shanna can do 3 unassisted  chin ups,  a month ago she couldn’t even do one.  I took a picture of her back muscles, which I’m trying to figure how to upload to the blog. argghh – okay I figure it out so you can see the nice definition she has developed.  Myself I’m down to 209lbs so that’s 11 pounds to date.  My initial goal was to loose 20 lbs and be at 200lbs.  Once I reach 200lbs I will judge how I look and more importantly how I feel, and than from there I will decide if I would like to loose more weight. (195lbs).  I feel pretty strong right now, my biggest fear would be to loose my strength if I go any lower than 195lbs.  I just want to maintain a good balance between aesthetics and strength.   Once again I still like the weight routines of the P90X workout especially in Phase 2.  The turning bucket is one of Shanna’s favourite, as it works the infraspinatous , which makes up part of the rotator cuff.  Well nothing much more to report, I will keep everyone updated as our goals progress.

Remember to “Bring it” People
