#P90X Day 43: Quivering Muscles Everywhere

Yesterday afternoon I was hit with the sad news that a family friend had passed away suddenly. It was a sad moment and, as I rushed away from work to be with my wife and her family, I was fully prepared to just take a day off from P90X and be the support that I knew I might need to be.

But in truth, this was the fastest hour I’ve ever worked out in my life. This workout just flew by. It was fun, energetic, diverse, and a little tough to follow with how different one workout was from the next. The workout, in its entirety, attempts to hit [Continue...]

It’s a bittersweet Symphony, this P90X…

A bittersweet symphony Of course, that’s a reference to the subtly infections “Bittersweet Symphony” by The Verve — a song, I swear, was played for years every time I entered or left an AMC theatre. But I digress… This morning’s little ditty is about my progress with P90X, and how it has turned out to be somewhat bittersweet. Don’t get me wrong — the physical transfor [Continue...]
