My name is Pete, from New York, and I’m 54 years young.
This February of 2011,I became sick and tired of being overweight, at 205 lbs, so, decided to join a local boxing gym, and get back in shape.
From mid-February of 2011, to April 1st, without any particular diet,I lost 27 lbs by working out on my own at the boxing gym about five days a week; running the tread mill a couple miles a day, doing sit-ups and push-ups on my law office rug, riding the stationary bike, climbing the stair machine, doing 100 crunches, sit ups and push ups, and hitting the sand bags.
I started to feel better about myself again, and renewed my goal to get in shape. Regardless, I lost weight, but still carry along a bigger gut than I want, and was frustrated that, despite my efforts I still had my belly fat.
One day in April of 2011, after finishing my 2.2 mile daily run, I sat down in front of the television, and watched Tony Horton promote his P90X series, and I said to myself, THIS LOOKS LIKE WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR!!! It seemed to me, the next step in my quest, the quest to get to the next level. I had the feeling, the faith, that my new trainer, Tony Horton - you know, -”Mr. Bring It” - would do right by me! Little did I know what “Bring It” actually meant!!!!
Tony, you are BRUTAL! Hahahaha! I play your DVD work outs, and try and keep up, but Man O Man, my calves hurt me one day, and the next, my arms are just killing me!! LOL I LOVE IT, because you motivate me, to Bring It. Thanks to Tony, I just ordered my first P90X Results and Recovery Tub, with my last few pennies, praying to God, that it counter-acts the pain Tony loves to inflict upon me (and the thousands of others of you out there in P90X in Beachbody P90X world!)
And I’m doing it, because, I’m worth it; We're all worth it!!
That’s my story to date, and I pray to God my P90X Results and Recovery Tub shows up real soon, because Tony has some rad plans for me!!
So, thank you, Carl Daikeler, Beachbody CEO, who has assigned me to a coach, Scott Rupp, who I haven’t met yet, but who I think will become my next best friend and confidant, on my path to better health. And thank you, finally, all my fellow friends in the Beach Body World, who take the time to share with me, your motivational stories and comments along the way. Write me back!!! I need your motivation!! Pete
