Hello loyal fans. It was 95 yesterday and it is 92 today not counting humidity. I don’t have an air conditioner in my living room. PX90 cannot occur until this is taken care of. I’m not one for killing myself. I feel bad but the good news is the weather is supposed to break tonight, and it is rest week. I’ll holler some more when when I have more to write.

Today officially starts my first px90 rest week. It is also 95 degrees outside and the AC isn’t in the living room. It looks like I’m going to hold off on my workout until the sun sets. I went to the doctor about my hip. He referred me to a physical therapist. My primary doesn’t believe it to be a fracture but rather some type of muscle strain. Hopefully next week I can get an appointment. I have to jet now, but I’ll write more later.

I added these pictures because while it might be hard to tell my shirt is soaked and I’m covered in sweat. My apartment is on the third floor, I’ve yet to put in my AC and it’s f*?&ing hot. It was hot before I started, hotter during and by the end I was roasted. Mid way through I started feeling dizzy so I hit pause, downed nearly 20 ounces of water, belched loudly for all to hear and then continued on. It’s amazing to think that three weeks ago when I started the px90 I was dogging it, and now I want to keep going after the workout ends. 

Next week is recovery week which lines up nicely with my mini vacation in Michigan. (Check out that link for Michigan, google put the marker in the middle of the lake. You think with all that technology they could have put near the land.) I’m away from Wed night until Sunday night. So Thursday – Saturday I’ll be doing my workout on the road.

Tomorrow will be my 4th set of pictures. Oh side note before I forget. I saw a friend today I haven’t seen in a few months. First thing he said was “Are you working out again?” It’s pretty cool when people notice the change you go through. I don’t see much change in my photos, but my posture always improves when working out, my arms getter bigger first, and my shoulders broaden. Oh, and my confidence shoots up. I probably carry myself in a more secure manor. Either way it felt good knowing other’s can see the improvement.

Hey guys, I missed yesterday due to lack of sleep, even now as I write this I’m a little groggy but I’m going to man up in a minute and get my act together. I need to shower and go food shopping, but when I get back it’s px90 time. I love Kenpo X. Last week I did well with it so I’m looking forward to upping the intensity this week. I can’t believe it’s almost rest week. How time flies.

I went to bed at 6am. I got up at 9am. I have no food in my house and I’m exhausted. I’m fearing missing my workout today. Nooooooooooooooo. I’m going to man up and get some food in me, take a nap and hit my workout tonight. I’ll post later with details on how I did. If you’re into praying… please do so now. Thanks.

This morning was shitty for me. I went to bed late, got up early to a hot, sticky apartment with a lot of shit to get done. I just did my workout and now I’m spent but feeling great. It really is amazing how working out can change your mental attitude on things. I mixed a little recovery drink into my water and gave it my all. I skipped Ab Ripper X because I’m still concerned about my hip and those exercises put strain on them. I have a doctor’s appointment next week to figure out what’s up. I’m hoping it’s nothing to serious. I need to go shower and do some work, until next time… Have a great day.

It’s been confirmed. I’m still skinny after 2 weeks. I’m not fretting quite yet though. 

Yesterday I went hiking on Black Mountain and screwed up my hip. This was the second hike of the season, and also the second hike that my hip started bothering me once the grade started to steepen. I called my doctor, I want Xrays to determine if one of my legs is longer than the other. I broke my femur nearly 20 years ago, I’ve heard that sometimes the legs can become irregular. I’m too young to have hip problems, so I’m going to nip it in the bud now.

As for PX90, I’m just about to start Chest and Back. I’m ready to Bring It this week as next week is rest week. I’m off to do my workout now.

I just completed Kenpo X and I did fantastic. Last week I was dogging it at times. There is basically 25 reps per move or combo and last time I stopped around 15 – 18 once I was half way through the workout. Just now I was able to do 22 – 25 reps throughout. II was actually disappointed when the DVD ended. I’m toying with the thought of calling my friend to see if he wants to go hiking because I have so much energy. Tomorrow is picture day, until then have a great day.

Well it’s a lazy Saturday. I should be cleaning the house but I’m half way between an early afternoon nap and sitting in the unkempt office wasting time on the net. I post pictures tomorrow night but before I do I thought I’d comment on the near close of my second PX90 week. My numbers have all improved. I feel stronger and have much more energy then before I started, but sadly I look no different. Still skinny. I keep thinking how I could be doing more pushups but look the exact same. No worries though, my posture is improving. I tend to slouch, but when I’m working out my shoulders pull up and back.

Eating is still an issue. While I’ve cut down on a lot of bad shit it is still difficult to stay away from ALL the bad stuff (deep dish pizza from UNO’s last night for example). Sometimes I don’t know what I should be eating. My cooking skills are practically nil so preparing tasty healthy food is very hard. Lately I’ve been looking on the Food Network for easy meals I can prepare. I’ve been eating oatmeal in the morning, waiting an 45 min or so, doing my PX90 workout, eating a 3 egg omelet with red peppers, onions, and cheese. I used to eat eggs with ketchup but with the 3 ingredients in my eggs I have no desire for ketchup. I’ve been trying to eat some sort of sandwich snack early afternoon, no more ham, I’ve switched to Turkey which apparently is better. As far as dinner, it’s usually a meat (Ribs, Chicken, Fish, etc). 

Fish is my new kick. I’ve been told it’s better than chicken, beef, steaks, etc. If I go to the fishmonger I can get daily catches which are already marinated. For 4 -7 bucks depending on the type I can get a very nice serving. So for less than $20 bucks a week I can get 3 – 4 servings of fish. That’s not bad. The only thing I need to do now is reintroduce salad into my dinner.

I’m gonna go make some instant miso soup and watch my room mate play Mario Kart Wii. Then it’s nap time, PX90′s Kenpo X, shower, clean house and enjoy another Saturday Night. 

Just want to make a quick comment about weather. Doing plyometrics or any PX90 Workout for that matter in hot weather is shitty. I was sweating bullets during the warm up. By the last 20 minutes I was just going through the motions.

I felt inclined to post. As I mentioned earlier today, before I did my PX90 workout, I was concerned about being tired and not being able to bring it. I actually did pretty well. My chest numbers went up and my back stayed consistent. I lost all my energy during Ab Ripper X and had to stop half way through. I’m a little upset by that, but all in all it was a good workout. It’s amazing that after 1 week I’m already feeling like a million bucks.

Seeing my skinny-assed self is rather embarrassing but hopefully that motivation will keep me moving forward towards a non-anorexic body type.

Not much change in looks but let me tell you, my body is beat. PX90 kicked my ass this week. Especially Kenpo X on Saturday. That shit does a number on my back. As I type this now I’m dreading my Chest and Back workout I’m about to do. I went to bed late last night. I have Showtime on Demand so the friends have been coming to my place to watch Dexter. Last night they marathoned until 530. Having watched the episodes months ago I went to bed around 4. Regardless I’m living on little sleep so I’m afraid I won’t be able to bring it. I have some Recover Drink from the last few rounds, I might slip a little into my water for today’s workout. Well I’m off for now. I didn’t post my workout calendar because what’s the point. Next week you’ll be able to see my gains, so I’ll wait until then.

Well you can’t do something half-assed if you’re holding yourself responsible. Here’s my before pictures. Every Sunday or Monday morning I’ll post updated pictures. I’ll post to the blog a few times a week, no more of this every day shit. I start px90 in about 90 minutes. I’m downing water as I type. I just placed an order for some more PX90 Recover Formula over at ExtremeBodyWorkout, this stuff allows me to “Bring It”.

I start the PX90 Monday. Tomorrow I’ll throw up a few pictures. I’ll blog a few times a week to keep myself in check and in 90 days I’ll be happy. It’s a beautiful day outside and I don’t want to be in here typing. So off I go to the wonders that await me outside.
