P90x is Chest & Back Tomorrow and so am I!

It’s been almost a year since I touched a weight or did any consistent core strength exercises and honestly, my body started breaking down as I put in training miles for the last marathon.  I wasn’t a huge fan of the feeling, so getting back in the gym (living room) and committing to p90x for my third trip through the program.  My cardio vascular fitness is fine, however strength is lacking at the moment.  It’s been two marathons, a half Ironman and a full Ironman since last connecting with Tony Horton, so definitely looking forward to tomorrow morning!  Almost 7 pull-ups on the fit test today…

Wall sit test!

Wall sit test!

I won’t be following the traditional diet plan this round as Nicole and I are on a mostly vegan diet.  Looking forward to seeing how this feels and if any supplements will be needed.  I will, however, be cutting out alcohol and coffee for the full period and processed sugar for at least the first 30 days.  We’ll have to see how far Nicole makes it with that commitment!  Oh coffee, I will miss you…
