My name is Chris Walton, I am 27 years old and I am really excited about getting in shape this year, 2011.
By day, I am employed as an electrical engineer, based in the Caribbean island of Trinidad and Tobago. I am recently married; about a month now and I operate a Purple Dragon Dojo in Gasparillo.
That said, I have found that beachbody's workout programs with Tony Horton fit perfectly into my busy schedule.
Last year I was working out with Power 90, the Power 90 Master Series and with my trainer at the gym but I fell off the wagon some where around July.
I was still in great shape up until early August last year when I tested successfully for my fourth degree black belt but I took too much time off to celebrate?? my achievements.
I hardly worked out and ate clean during the second half of the year last year.
Little by little, I got weaker,my stamina decreased, my waistline got bigger and of course I put on weight. After the Christmas season was over, I stepped onto the scale and I was amazed at how much weight I put on. Last year July I weighed a lean 165lbs and my waist was about 32 inches. But here I am at the beginning of the year with a 34.75 inch waist and 174lbs on the scale.
I decided that it was time to get myself together and get back on the wagon. I decided that I would take this journey one day at a time, put my discipline into practise and surpass myself.
I'm starting all over with Power 90 this year. Let's see what happens when an engineer, a husband, and a fourth degree junior master black belt get together and actually do what they know is the right thing to do...

Since I was 6 years old, I have always been involved in fitness because of my martial arts training in Purple Dragon.
Today, I still continue my martial arts training, learning from my original teachers and one of the things they have always advised is to always be combat ready.
I feel that beachbody's Power 90 programs make it easy for me to follow this advice all the time. I can now take responsibility for my personal fitness on my own time, right in the comfort and security of my own home.
When I found out about beachbody, I tried P90X first, and then I realised that it felt like I was going through a Purple Dragon Black Belt grading exam every day. It was too much for me to keep up with right there and then. So I began searching for a program that was more appropriate for my fitness level at that time and my busy schedule.
I found what I was looking for with Power Half Hour and I saw great results: My chest and arms looked a whole lot better, my cardio fitness improved slightly and my abs began to emerge.
I was excited about these results but I still wanted more. I wanted my body to look like Gerard Butler's (King Leonidas) in the movie 300.
This led me to choose the P90 program and I could not have made a better decision.
It was exactly what I needed in that it challenged me just enough to keep me motivated but not so much that I felt discouraged.
It's been about 6 months since I started now (because of my busy schedule) but finally, I'm almost finished with P90. Just 6 more workout days to go.
So far the results have been great: My chest and arms look even better than before, my cardio fitness has improved a great deal, my legs are way stronger and my stomach has gone down so much that it's almost flat.
Who knows, maybe I might get called to be an extra in the sequel to the 300 movie. :)
******** Guess what? that was last year. I got married, put on weight and lost most of my fitness.
I'm back to Power 90 to get myself in shape again.
Pushing play everyday
