Day 10

Shoulders, Arms, and Ab Ripper X today.

Really enjoyed todays workout. I made sure I pushed hard in all the sets, and jeebus was I feeling the burn at the end of each one.

I'm also getting sick of Tony's lame jokes, and not sure how much longer I can put up with it. Might have to turn the volume down and crank some decent music while doing the exercises... I'm sure they're funny, just not over, and over again.

Lauren and I did our workouts separate today due to work commitments. From the text I got from her just before midnight, sounds like she was buggered though.

Yoga tmw... I'm not looking forward to it as much as Lauren is...

P90X Day 1


Today my wife and I both started the P90X workout. With our new son, it was time to get our arses into gear, and step up the lifestlye. We've never been fit, so we're doing it together.

Day one was the Chest/Back workout, and the Ab Ripper X.

Chest and back were good workouts. Pretty much pushup city. More variations of pushups than I've seen before. Lots of chinups too...

Back workouts were good, but need to go up in weight.

The Ab Ripper X was a killer. Only 16 minutes long, but about 350 situp variations by the end of it.

I'm sore. Lauren sounded like she was giving birth during some of the exercises. Slightly off putting when you're lifting weight, and trying not to laugh and blow snot out your nose at the same time...

Nutrition has also meant we're eating healthy too... Lots of fruit and vegies. The fridge and pantry were cleaned out, and restocked with superfoods. Snacks are now fruit or vegies, and main meals are all portion controlled, and the correct amount of protein/carbs/fat our bodies need. We're on different nutrition plans, but that just changes the amount we're eating.

This is the Day one picture of the two of us....
