Apr 16- I am going on a cruise next week so hard work and dedication to P90x will take a break and get a deserved reward. I know I will add a few lbs while on the cruise but I also know I will take them off after I get back and start a fresh 90 P90X program. I will get a lot of exercise while on the cruise as we have a lot of activities scheduled, zip line, snorkeling, kayaking, and more snorkeling. We have six stops and six physically active excursions scheduled for each one. I am 58 years old and the fact that I am able to easily do all this stuff (and enjoy it) is a tribute to what a program like P90X can do for you, at any age.
Feb 4- I am settling in to some good workouts much quicker for this round of P90X as I do have the learning curve to go through I did the first time before my workouts become really effective. Have experienced some problems being consistent with the workouts as I had some kidney stone problems that resulted in minor surgery and I lost 7 days to inactivity so my first 30 days is going to be more like 40 before I reach my first recovery week.

Jan 10- starting another round of P90X today. I received a big boost in my fitness level with my first round of P90X but was little disappointed in the visual change. Some of that was my fault as my eating habits were not what they should have been. I have high hopes for this second round and I am anxious to get started.

Nov.8- Just finished my second recovery week. I had plateaued for a while but really made some progress over the last two weeks. I hope to see some significant changes in this last 4 weeks.

Oct.5- today was the end of my first 4 weeks of P90X since recovering from
the fall out of my attic. I have been rehabing with with machine weight
training and an eliptical machine for cardio for the last year. Even though I
thought I was in pretty good shape P90X really kicked my but and from what
has happened so far I think will give me significant changes by the end of the
90 days.

Back from cruise gained 10lbs but have already taken off 4 in one week. Back
at it hard.

Aug 1- dropped a couple of lbs but that is not significant what is positive is I
am getting leaner and lowering my bodyfat ratio. I need to get a new after
picture up soon.

Jul 2- Back to working out regularly now for two months it shows in lost
inches weight has become something to ignore as it is relatively constant but
I know things are going the right direction as inches are being lost and my
appearance is improving.


May 30- I have gotten back on schedule working out most days and eating
cleaner. Dropped the weight I picked up on the cruise last month and I am
trying to decide on a new goal, I think I will work towards a 12% bodyfat but
first things first I am looking for a new motorcycle and should have one in
the garage by the end of June.


May 3- I went on a 7 day cruise this month which was a complete vacation
from everything: I ate and drank what I wanted and as much as I wanted and
exercised very little. Everybody deserves a week like that once in a while. The
problem ensued when 2 days after we returned I came down with walking
pneumonia and was down for another week of no exercise. So between the
cruise and getting sick I gained 10 lbs. I have since worked of 6 of them and
the rest will be gone soon. The pounds are harder to take off than they were
to put on but off they will come.

Apr. 2 - My weight is staying the same but I am continuing to add muscle and
become more defined. I sure progress will stop this month as we are going on
a cruise for 7 days from the 13th to 20th so I expect to eat like a starving
wolf. Even though it is vacation I will try and work out some so I am hoping to
maintain my status but we will see, it is vacation I do plan to have fun.

Mar. 2 - Lost 2lbs this month but more importantly I am getting leaner and
the stomach muscles are starting to show. Weight loss at this point is almost
meaningless as I am exchanging fat for muscle. Not doing that bad really,
slow but definitely in the right direction.


There have been some positive changes, no earth shaking total body
makeover miracles but as I explained in my Bio I am a lifelong athlete and
fitness nut able to bench press more than a 56 year old man should as well as
easily run 4 miles in 25 minutes so I have had some experience and success
in the health and fitness arena. But I wanted to try something new in P90X,
and being a Coach and helping people get into fitness and a healthy lifestyle
looked fun and challenging. Over the past few months I have only lost 7lbs
but my waist has gone down 1 inch and I have added 3/4inches to my arms 1
inch to shoulders and chest. This is positive progress but I have learned that
in my case future improvement will come from eating less food and healthier
food. I am doing as much exercise as I can possibly fit into my schedule (and
you can’t beat P90X for a calorie burning muscle building workout and that is
only a part of what I do) so my enemy is food. Food, the quantity and type, is
what is preventing me from having the six pack abs. So I have a new plan
when it comes to food and I will let you know how it works for me next
month in the update.
