4 Week Check In

I am hard at it!  It is incredible.  I just started week 4!  I sweat a lot anyway but with this program has the sweat just pouring.  I never had a clue that I could actually sweat that much in 22 minutes!  It is just amazing and I am just blown away.
The idea that I am working out with Veterans EVERY day is so inspiring and so motivational.  The fact that they work this hard and what sacrifices that they have made for our country can be overwhelming at times.

I have a Free Clean Eating Challenge going on right now.  I am amazed at the commitment of the women in this group.  Some have their families doing it with them and some have their husbands jumping on board.  I am so inspired by them.  We did meal prep yesterday and they were cooking and posting and having conversations.  It's an exciting place to be!!!!!

My Fitness Challenge Group......Let's just say these ladies are KILLING IT!!!!!
*They are wearing pants that they haven't been able to get into.
*They are losing inches
*They are losing pounds
*They are drinking more water than they ever thought they could.
*They are committed
*They are just AWESOME!!!!!!
I am so proud of all of them.  We even have 2 new ones that have just jumped in and they are hitting the ground running!!!!!

I just wanted to check in with you and let you know how 22 Minute Hard Corps is going and how the other accountability groups are doing.  I would love to have you join one!!!!  Send me a message on Facebook or you can leave a comment here!!!!

GET SOME!

My Motto!

When I started P90X for the 3rd time, I picked up on Tony saying this.  The light finally clicked!  "CAN'T" should not be in your vocabulary!!!!!!!  I have even taken it so far as not letting Kaleb say that he "CAN'T" do something! 
When I started P90X I couldn't......
Do push ups (any kind)
Do a full DVD
Do plyometrics
Do any more weight than 3 pounds and I was DYING at that
Do "Pull-Ups" with the bands

NOW-------
I CAN!!!!!!
Do push ups- any kind
Do a full DVD
Do Plyometrices
Do more than 3 pounds and now purchasing 10 pound weights
Do "Pull-Ups" with a HEAVY BAND and even do some on the machine at the gym!!!!!

DON"T SAY CAN'T!!!!!!!!

Well, everyone probably knows this man.  Tony Horton is known for his fitness, clean eating and training.  Started with Power 90.  I remember when that came out.  I had some GREAT friends that jumped on board and completely changed them.  It was incredible. 

So now we have Power 90, P90X, P90X+, 10 Minute Trainer and I am sure there are books and more videos on YouTube than you can imagine.

 

Have you done one of his programs?  I have the P90X.  Do  you want a challenge? Do you want to change? Do you want to be pushed to your limits? This is an incredible program.  Through Beachbody, you can chat with all of the other people that are taking on the task of making it through his program.  Life got in the way of my finishing it the first time......I WILL BE BACK!!!!    P90X has such a mix of exercises.  Tony calls it using muscle confusion.  He is exactly right.  Anything from 90 minutes of yoga to 16 minutes of Ab Ripper X (which is appropriately named) and of course my favorite....PLYOMETRICS! 

  Which one of Tony Horton's programs have you done or which one would you like to do?

I Survived!!!!

I can't believe it!  I actually did it!!!!  I survived week 1 of P90X!  I am absolutely sore in places I didn't know I had.  I didn't give up.  I didn't skip a workout! I watched my food!  I'm here to tell you it has been INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!

Have you ever done P90X?  It is absolutely wonderful!!!!!  Things to remember (I discovered) are the following.....
1. Don't freak out if you can't do EVERYTHING on the DVD.
2. Do what you can for as long as you can. 
3. Get excited about it!
4. Work as hard as you can
5. Do the warm up and do the cool down!!!!!  That is a must!!!!!! 

So, next week is week 2.....I'm ready!!!!!!!

Bring It,
Pam

NO EXCUSES!!!!

There are NO EXCUSES!!!!!  I mean NONE!!!!!!! 

The other day I told you about the P90X program that I am doing.  This was the kicker for me.  I have had the program for about 2years.  I couldn't find my "plan" that tells you what DVD you do next. I decided while I was trying to find it, I would do some of the videos and work my way into it so to speak.

 Well I popped in the Plyometrics DVD.  This is basically jump training.  At first when Tony Horton comes on he talks about how this is the toughest one.  I'm thinking I have lost my head.  Then the DVD starts and he introduces the people on the video with him.  I was not prepared for this....... Remember, this is jump training, Plyometrics........one of the people has a prosthesis on his right leg!!!!!HELLO!!!!!!!  I HAVE NO EXCUSE WHAT SO EVER!!!!!!!!

 I LOVE jump training.  Can I get the rhythm done and get both feet off the floor at the same time?  Not yet but I am NOT going to give up.  That is NOTan option!!!!!!!  He inspires me every time I put that DVD IN!!!!!

 What inspires you?

 What motivates you to go and do it all again?

 Game on,

Pam
