Last year on my 38th birthday I was disgusted with myself. I was at least 40 lbs overweight, unfit and unhealthy. I weighed about 228 lbs with a 40 inch waist, as well as, being a pack a day smoker. I made a decision to change my life 4ever by my 39th birthday. It was a 3 step plan: learn how to eat right, start exercising again and quit smoking.

It was a 3 step plan: learn how to eat right, start exercising again and quit smoking. In the 8 months since my birthday I have lost 55 lbs and have gotten down to a 34" waist. I am in my second week of breathing free (no smoking). And today 2/9/08, I started the P90X program. I am already in the best shape of my life and I wanted to take it to the next level. I've always wanted rock hard abs but could never get there. I am so close I can almost taste it. So here we go and I will see you on the other side of this intense & wonderful workout.

Before P90X: Last year on my 38th birthday I was disgusted with myself. I was at least 40 lbs overweight, unfit and unhealthy. I weighed about 228 lbs with a 40 inch waist, as well as, being a pack a day smoker.
I made a decision to change my life 4ever by my 39th birthday. It was a 3 step plan: learn how to eat right, start exercising again and quit smoking. In the 8 months since my birthday I have lost 55 lbs and have gotten down to a 34" waist. I am in my second week of breathing free (no smoking). And today 2/9/08, I started the P90X program. I am already in the best shape of my life and I wanted to take it to the next level. I've always wanted rock hard abs but could never get there. I am so close I can almost taste it. So here we go and I will see you on the other side of this intense & wonderful workout.
After P90X: OH MY GOD!!! Absolutely unbelievable. If this wasn't me and my experience, I'm not sure I would believe it. The results have been amazing. I followed the workout exactly as prescribed. Pushed play everyday. I did multiple double days. Around day 60 my stepsister died of a massive Brain annurism. I didn't get a chance to workout for about 9 days. So I added 9 extra days to the back end of my program. I wanted to follow as closely as possible.
The best thing about getting in this kind of shape is how much better I feel during everyday life and activities. The The next best thing is that I have inspired my wife to do the program next. We will start on June 1st. Round 2 for me and round one for my wife (YEAHHH!!!!) I know she doesn't like working out so much, but I think she will enjoy this program. This time around I will follow the meal plan even better.
I will take what I learned about myself into round 2 with even more vigor. I can't believe what a difference 90 days can make. Here are my numbers, They speak for themselves:
Day 1 Day 90 Body Fat %18.7 Body Fat %11.25 Weight - 173 Weight - 177 Chest - 43.25" Chest - 47" Waist - 34.5" Waist - 32.5" Biceps - 14.25" Biceps - 16" Thigh - 26.25" Thigh - 29.5" Pull ups (max)-6 Pull ups (max)-31 Push ups (max)-21 Push ups (max)-62 Wall squat - 52 sec Wall squat - 2 min 58sec
The biggest surprise for me at the end of the program is that I am actually heavier (weight wise) then I was at the beginning of the program. I know that muscle is heavier than fat, but I didn't expect that result.
Tony, I have to thank you for giving me the tools to reach my fitness goals. I haven't yet attained all of them, but I am about 90% to where I want to be. I am so proud of myself. My 39th birthday is in 4 days and I have never looked or fealt better. I will be getting P90X Plus to supplement my next round. You have done a great service to our country. I hope everyone tries it and has the same results. If our country doesn't turn itself around soon I am affraid it will be too late. Again Thank you.
To everyone who hasn't tried the program yet, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!! Yes, it is hard work. But only an hour a day. Yes, it takes willpower. But the results are worth it. Yes, it takes commitment. But the time goes by fast. Please for your healths sake, try it. You WILL be as blown away as much as I have been.
Keep pushing play and BRING IT!!!
Thank you and good luck.
