Keep Pushing Play

This weekend, my wife and I had a blast going up to LA / Anaheim for a sports day. My Christmas present was Lakers' tickets, and we decided to catch the hockey game in Anaheim on the way down to San Diego.The biggest question of the day was how were we going to fit in our workout with such a busy day planned. Because it was a weekend, we had slept in and did not do our usual morning workout. After spending a full day watching sports, and eating a little too much, we got home late and were exhausted.

Failure was not an option here, so we sucked it up, changed into our workout clothes and pressed play on "The Beast", better known as Plyometrics. It was the hardest day of P90X I have had up until that point, but the feeling of accomplishment I got once we finished was absolutely worth it.

A lifestyle change is no joke, and it is difficult every step of the way. However, when your best friend helps you every day, it makes it so much easier and more meaningful. For example, we both broke down and ate some things we shouldn't have as we watched the games, but we have since picked ourselves up and kept focus.

As I mentioned before, I felt good about the 30 day pictures, and I know that the 60 day photos will motivate me even more than the ones from 30. I can feel my muscles growing after a workout, and I think that's why I crave it so much. When I first started the program - especially Ab Ripper X, I used to wonder how I would ever be able to get through it all. Now, I am already confident that I will surpass what challenges lie ahead.

This has been a lot of fun.
