We started the day off okay by traveling to the beach for an early morning walk. At least early for me. :) Barb usually gets up about 1 to 2 hours before I do.
I then came home to deal with our marketing campaign problems. This turned out to be an all…

As I've stated previously; vanity workouts ROCK! The pump you feel in your upper body is exhilerating! So as you can probably guess, tonight's workout went very well.
That now leaves me with just 2 days before the end of phase I. Stretch X tomorrow and…

Not much to report for my day off, but I did in fact perform the Stretch X. It felt nice! As I have stated in past postings, don't neglect the stretching. It will take you to greater heights than you ever expected! Now in terms of starting the recovery…

Today was awesome! I completed the Yoga X program without groaning even once about all of the Downward Dogs. is this a sign that my body is becoming stronger?I dare say yes! Yoga X of course is not about strength at least not outward strength instead i…

Most people use this day to utilize the Stretch X routine and normally I would do the same. After all who doesn't need a good stretch or massage. Both of these have the same function in the fact that they aid in the recovery process.
And of course they…

Today I worked out my legs and back followed by Ab Ripper X program. Legs are taxing at times but I feel that mine are improving week by week. The "Burn" is more present than in most workouts because Tony puts us through several "high rep" workouts. I ma…

Yoga is about being in this present moment or at least that is my take on it. And of course Yoga X forces you to "Be In This Present Moment".I am finding more and more that my pain in any moment is because I am wound as tight as a piano wire. Thus I ha…

I like most people enjoy my upper body workouts. As Tony Horton likes to say these are "Vanity" workouts. I guess it feeds the "ego" more than other workouts. I'll have to keep this in check. :)
My weights did not go up this time as my tris were sore fr…

I hate to admit it. I was weak. But then again maybe I should have. The day was long. 15 hours worth of demonstrating the Vita-Mix. We sold all of our stock except 3 machines so hopefully we will sell the last 3 on Sunday.
I crashed as soon as I made i…

Hello readers, Today's Kenpo X workout was great. I am discovering I am a little more uncoordinated than I used to be in my youth! No worries however. Your hand / eye coordination can be improved just like your muscular system. Next week starting Monda…

As I near the end of the day I can't help but wonder how sore will my "end" will be when I awake. Today's workout was really good! My pull ups are improving and I was not near as tired at the end of this one. (Yes I did give it 100%)
I have been sendin…

Okay I got through it. But I don't have to like it. I'd rather walk on burning coals than do this part of the program. But we all can't love everything.
I know, I know that is not a good coach talking. Perhaps things will get better before the end of th…

I love this workout! If you give it 100% there is no way to fail! I performed my workout in the evening today as our Vita-Mix Show started early.
I am sticking to my goals to gain weight so I am using heavier weight and lower reps. My weights went up th…

Plyometrics again and it was just as hard as the first time! I'm not ready to make my first P90X video just yet. I will put a few of these under my belt before I do so.
The workout is great and as most P90X workouts do they wear you out. Drink plenty…

Taking yesterday off was the right call. Because today's workout went awesome. My bicep still twinges a little but overall it is feeling much better.
I worked out at 7:00 a.m in our fitness center but I had to "rush" the workout due to my Vita-Mix dem…

Today was pretty much a wash! I injured my left bicep so I did some light stretching.
Barb made a few contacts while I was on the computer most of the day. Thus I continued to tweak this blog by adding a new blog named Vita-Mix. This new blog is where…

Over the years I have seen many people who have "under developed" legs. WHY?Because leg workouts HURT. Legs after-all are the largest muscle group. There are more fiber types in your quads and glutes then anywhere else on the body. But there are also m…

It's official. Downward Dog sucks!

No workout on the beach today. It was a brisk 60 degrees. BrrrrrI know those in the north are hating me right now! :)But I did go to my apartment Fitness Center. I met a guy while in the gym and he was ecstatic to see my P90X shirt. He told me he los…

Plyo what? I think they meant to call it "plado". Because that is how I felt after the workout. OMG. Tony Horton starts the session out by telling you that you may want to grab a bucket and now I understand why! Don't do this workout with any food in you…

Years ago a mentor of mine asked me... "Scott what makes you pound the table?". I have pondered over this question many times and I finally came to the conclusion that I should leave the corporate world to start my own business. So my journey to free myself began in 2009.
