I'm a web designer and developer living the dream in California. Unfortunately living said dream can lead to an inactive lifestyle, which it did for me. After working at home for five years the sedentary lifestyle caught up with me.

I was eating all kinds of terrible (yet tasty) food whenever I wanted to. Potato chips for dinner. Ice cream while watching TV. Two fried egg sandwiches for breakfast. And let's not forget the side of mayo or ranch for my heaping helping of fries whenever I ate out.

Growing up I was very active. I played soccer and was a competitive figure skater for 20 years. With all that activity my diet didn't really matter. Since I stopped participating in organized sports and working at a desk the pounds started to pile on.

After putting up with the extra weight for years I joined a gym. I lasted about 6 months going to the gym every day. I was making progress but nothing spectacular. Then a friend told me about P90X. It sounded like an amazing program.

P90X was just what I was looking for. I bought it and started my first round within days of receiving the it. I've now finished two rounds of P90X and become a Beachbody coach. Whenever I can I spread the positive affects of P90X and help and motivate others to get the same (or better) results.

Over the years I've tried a bunch of different workouts to keep fit. Some worked,
some didn't. I'd gained a lot of weight from being self-employed and working at a
computer all day. At one point I was about 200lbs. (which is pretty big for a 5'10"
guy). Then I discovered P90X.

P90X made it easy for me to workout. Just put the DVD in and push play. No super
expensive equipment and it was convenient. I could work out at home whenever I
had time. Every morning I woke up, put in the DVD, and worked out.

I stuck to the exercise plan for 3 months (my journal is at thehealthier [dot] me). I
didn't follow the nutrition plan as closely as I should have but I was still seeing
amazing results. I finished my first round of P90X in early January ’09 and went
from 14% body fat to 8%.

In mid-February I started my second round of P90X. This time I’m focusing more
on nutrition and taking the Beachbody supplements. My goal is to get to 5% body
fat and build more muscle.
