I’ve been getting a few requests to show where my bod is at now.  I was going to wait until I finished one whole year but since I’m getting asked, I’ll do them a bit early. I did a few sample shots this morning just to see how I looked.  I need to tan in [...]

Hi Everyone, I get a lot of questions about diet. How many calories should I (you) eat? Why the 40/40/20  ratio of carb/protein/fat for calories? Can I (you) change the 40/40/20 ratio to something else? Do I (you) have to measure & count everything? Do you have sample menus? How much or what can I [...]

The only thing I hate more than recovery week is starting back on our intense routine after taking it super easy the week before.  This morning Chris and I did Legs & Back and boy oh boy was it hard! Now having said that, I do have to admit that I upped my weight on [...]

Too often I get comments from women stating that they are not losing enough weight. And almost as often, when I ask, they admit that their clothes are fitting much better and/or that they have lost inches. And that always makes me wonder why we women tend to obsess about what the scale says. I [...]

We are having a lively discussion over in our forums about what to do next after completing the first round of P90X. This is a great discussion and while there is no right 1 answer for everyone, here are some things to consider: How close to your weight and physical goals did you get?  For [...]

Man today’s workout was pretty hard. I definitely had a case of the Mondays this morning. It probably did not help that Nancy and I did Legs & Back, as that is one of my least favorite workouts. Honestly if I had to describe my performance in one word, I might say pathetic. My plan [...]

I have a love/hate relationship with the P90X Chest & Back workout.  I love it because it’s simple and effective.  I hate it because it’s hard. When I first started P90X I did all my push ups from my knees and I could not do even 1 pull up.  I thought about this today when [...]

I was asked today over in Facebook how I achieved such a great transformation.  I replied that it was due to consistency, drive and focus.  And it was.  But I realized upon reflection that I overlooked one very key element.  And that is I had a really good blueprint to follow. P90X was the blueprint [...]

Wow not sure what was up, but damn this workout kicked my butt! Even the Insanity warm-up was killing me. Not really sure why, to be honest I expected it to be better, after yesterday’s workout. The workout definitely wore me out. After a painful session of ARX, Nancy and I continued the Abs Hell [...]

The weather is warming here in the Great Plains (finally – it seemed more than ever this year as though winter would never end) and of course, my thoughts turn towards being swimsuit ready.  I’ve lost a lot of weight and really toned up but I am more committed than ever to developing the best [...]
