It has been three years and change since I tore up my right knee. I completely tore my ACL, both meniscus and had three chip off fractures of the tibia.

Before the injury, I was half way to my black belt in karate, playing soccer and basketball. Since the injury, I haven't been able to workout too much. Maybe some PT to keep the muscle tone and a little cardio for the lungs.

My naturopath wanted me to get a good workout four times a week, so I began working out with the boys at juvenile detention. I run a PE workout four evenings a week, so I decided to join in and get a good sweat. The workouts help raise my good cholesterol, and lower my bad cholesterol. Since then, I have moved to graveyard, then dayshift, so no more maintaining the body. Then I tore 2 disks in my lower back 5 months ago, and my heart was having issues. But those have been resolved and now my cardiologist has given me the green light to start this P90X workout again. I work at two ranches, volunteer at one, and get paid at the other. I have never weighed as much as I weigh right now, and my body fat is probably the highest I have ever been. In college, my body fat was just under 5%.

Now its time to upscale and get back into shape and healthy again! Maybe I can get back into karate and finish what I started.
