Today I started back up with P90X! I have been wanting to get back into my old routine for sometime now. But every time I wanted to I would get busy, make an excuse, or I would get sick! No more of that!! My stomach's not going to get skinny on it's own, Darn it! So today starts a new day!!
Today I started with Plyometrics!! I can't believe how out of shape I am! I barely made it through the warm up! Haha!! I honestly don't remember being that bad the first time I did plyometrics 3 or 4 months ago. I am sure being sick doesn't help, but let's face it I am just OUT OF SHAPE!! :( I did most of what I could, but there was a lot of sitting and watching. My legs were shaky and I was getting dizzy!! But I got through it, and was very proud of myself! It made me want to try that much harder and keep up with it!
My biggest challenge is the diet!! I absolutely LOVE food!! I am not a super healthy eater. I would like to be, but I'm just not. Plus I'm just not a big big cook. I love to cook but I never know quite what to make. P90X is actually pretty easy to follow. There are three phases. The first phase is called Fat Shredder. You eat mostly protein so you can build muscle and burn fat. Phase Two is called Energy Booster. This is an intake of rich protein and carbohydrates with a low fat diet. This is suppose to increase energy! Phase Three is called P90X Endurance Maximizer. You consume complex carbohydrates, lean proteins and low fat food. This is to increase endurance and maintain a physical performance. I like my protein but I like my carbs a little more!! And it's mostly all the bad carbs! lol So hopefully I can do this. I think I just want to stick with the First phase and shred all that fat! haha.
Well tomorrow is Shoulders and Arms and hopefully I will do a lot better than I did today! I'll keep ya posted often of my progress. I would post a before picture, but that's too embarrassing! Maybe once I get my rocking body I will post the before and after picture!! :) Alright that's all for now! Thanks for reading!
