Well, I started the P90X on Tuesday 2 February 2010. This has been the program that I have been missing for the longest time.

I was a U.S. Marine for 11 1/2 years, when I was medically retired for a number of issues. One of them being arthritis in my hip. As Marines know, if you can't run in the Corps then you can't be in the Corps. About 8 years into my service is when I was actually diagnosed. Basically after that I was not allowed to do any kind of physical training. While they processed all my paperwork I could not do anything. This was very demotivating. It also didn't help that the people that could work out were really bad about treating me as a peer. This made things worse, then I was discharged and I could not afford to do anything but work 10-12 hours per day. This did not help my situation at all as I could not work out and really didn't have the motivation because I was still feeling sorry for myself for being injured while in the military. I also have a lot of problems sleeping, I am hoping that if I wear myself out enough I will be able to go to sleep at night and feel well rested in the morning.

I finally ended up in a position that I like and that affords me time to myself at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. This place has been great for my psychi, as the guys that I work with all work out pretty much everyday. This got me motivated to work out again. They are all aslo about 10 years younger than I am and I want to show them up. I have developed a pretty round belly in the time off from working out, and I plan on killing that thing within the next few weeks. I go to work in the morning and I brag about how much my muscles hurt because of the workout from last night.

I will be friends with anyone that is willing to be friends with me. So go ahead and click on that friend button on the side there.
