Starting P90X Today

When I first started coming on here a couple of years ago there was a mad man that posted here by the name of NotDave. He would post wild tales about his workouts that were simply unbelievable to a morbidly obese man. He was talking mostly about what he was doing with the P90X workouts. I was satisfied to just get my walking in and leave the craziness to NotDave.

But as an ex-college athlete the idea of getting back into great physical condition again kinda intrigued me and so I put it on the back burner. After a year of being stalled out at the 255 - 275 range, I believe I'm mentally ready to finish the journey. I  purchased the P90X program for myself and am gonna start it today. I may be to sore and tired to type tomorrow. If y'all see or hear from NotDave tell him to say a prayer for me. I'm not sure I'm ready for this deep of water, but I'm gonna jump in and swim with the sharks anyway. 

I'll try to keep you posted. In the mean time, get your ass out of the warm house and into the cold air and walk.  

Dude, congrats on starting P90X.  It will kick you in the butt let me tell you.  I have been working the program for about 2 months and you do see improvement over time.  Start off slow cause some of those exercises are HARD...  stick with it though.  You will be amazed at how quickly you see results.  Good luck...

Made it through the Chest & Back on Day #1 but had to cheat like hell on all the pull ups. LImped through the Plyos on Day #2. Woke up sore as hell this morning. Completed an extremely modified version of Chest and Arms tonight. Looked at the Ab Ripper work outs that I was supposed to do after #1 & #3 and decided to maybe work them in to the routine on week 2 or week 3. Scheduled to do the yoga workout tomorrow. It's gonna scorch my legs I already know.

I started this morning...borrowed it from a friend who quit so I haven't looked at the book yet...I did Chest, Shoulders and Triceps this morning.  Man it kicked my butt!  I love it because I LOVE the feeling of barely being able to lift your arms above your head.  You know you've done something.   I've been stalled at around 275 for a couple months and I'm ready to kick up the fat loss a notch.  I will finish the 90 days on my 1 year anniversary of my surgery.  Looking forward to going to the doctor for my follow up that day and letting them see my loss...125 so far...can't wait to see how much more with P90X!
