Ok, well I suppose I will start of by saying I have been studying the fit guide and nutrition guides for the p90x workout for about a month now. I have purchased everything from food scales to dumbells, cleaned out the fridge and cupboards and remodeled a room in the house to begin my personal p90x transformation.
The first and formost positive effect of p90x has been the fact that I have lost over 10 pounds just getting ready for this workout. When I began eating healthier and doing some of the bonus workouts that came with the package I had a "light-bulb in the brain" "ding" epiphany type moment. This is not a workout, this is not a quick fix or lose weight fast, this is not a one time deal. This is a lifestyle, lifetime, quality of life change, and you have to want IT if you are gonna even get close to bringin' IT.
AND I WANT IT.
I just completed the fit test and some areas of my results suprised me while other areas didn't suprise me as much as they challenged me. I can't wait to come back in 90 days and ace out a few more pull ups or smash the amount of pushups I can do, maybe sit on the wall for twice the amount of time if not more.
And that's what p90x is doing for me in every part of my life right now. Want it, push it, bring it. Everywhere I go I have this Tony Horton voice in the back of my head telling me to push a little harder, stay a little longer, feel the burn and love it. This is it and I am not looking back from here on out. Its all about living better and feeling better which is just plain better.
I titled this "on the eve of day one" because that is simply what it is. What is harder for some to understand and oh so not simple is that this is also the end of what was. I am comfortable walking away from junk food and double double cheesburgers because currently I cant wait to get at my apple a day and a killer kick my ass workout that makes me feel ALIVE.
See ya next time

P.S.
These are copies of my blogs written on the Team Beachbody website. I decided to post them here in order to keep my motivation and enthusiasm going for the next 90 days in order to become a graduate of the program. This is also some pretty serious cross training in order to get in shape for the upcoming ski season and the following bike season. Yes the bike ride is still on the list of things I must do.
