Raleigh, NC 90 days does not seem like a long time and that is all the time I was willing to give the P90X Classic program. After I bought the DVDs in May of this year, I decided to "Bring It!". I am a 57 year old man, married to a wonderful lady with three children. With their support and encouragement, I am happy to say that I was able to complete the P90X program this morning and I am ecstatic 90 days does not seem like a long time and that is all the time I was willing to give the P90X Classic program. After I bought the DVDs in May of this year, I decided to "Bring It!". I am a 57 year old man, married to a wonderful lady with three children. With their support and encouragement, I am happy to say that I was able to complete the P90X program this morning and I am ecstatic with the results! I lost 33 lbs. and 5 inches on my waist. As suggested in the program, I did follow the nutrition guide using the Portion Plan in the free Excel spreadsheets, which I believe was essential in the results I achieved.
Now, on to the benefits which extend far beyond simply losing weight. As I mentioned, I'm 57. I have been blessed with possessing some of the top positions in some major companies. When the economic downturn fell upon us in 2008, I lost my job due to corporate strategy. Once out in the job market it became readily apparent that the younger, more fit candidates get preference. My confidence was shot. I gained employment, but it was tough. My weight and my attitude held me back from "selling my worth". That has all changed by completing this program.
By completing this program I not only look better ~ I look younger! I did not skip even one day, which is a great accomplishment on it's own. My confidence has returned and if I ever find myself in that predicament again, I know I'll be counted as one of the "vibrant" candidates for any position I desire.
My coach, Sonja Sandholm (SimplySonja), has been great at encouraging me and providing feedback and guidance. She emphasized the importance on diet and nutrition to successfully achieve the results for which I was striving.
I will be taking a few weeks off, going on vacation with my wife to Florida and will proceed on my health journey. I feel great!
