I failed. I Kade it through a week a few days, quit blogging it and got lazy. Jeeze. Anyways, life is still good. I feel healthier and I am definitely starting back. A major setback for me has been an issue with my condo, the sink is out of commission. Basically I was on this uber diet/ exercise and couldn’t even cook.

We are installing a new disposal this week and I will have no excuses.

BTW, I played flag football yesterday and I feel like mush. I need to get cardio in chek stat.

Day 6 was fun. Yeah I said it. It was Kenpo, basically taebo or some sort of martial arts. It was great to throw some punches and kicks. I got a great sweat on and I guess my max heart rate was aroung 160-170 at one point. I need to get a good heart rate monitor. If only there was an app for that. Anyways I am looking forward to getting that first pull up.

Food:

Coffee with milk

Red Bull energy shot

Sugar Free Red Bull

Two Chicken breasts, bag of frozen broccoli

Here is the bad part

Beer Dinner at Khalil’s in West Little Rock

I would list it but it is anti P90X. I did, however, pass on the dessert and only ate small portions of each dish.

After the beer dinner I did the workout and I paid for it. Tomorrow is rest day but I am going to Bring It.

Day 5 was legs and back. I apparently have no back muscles. It is week 1 afterall but I am ready to crank out some pullups. I played a little soccer after the workout and all skills are long gone. I will admit that I worked out legs and I was a bit fatigued but the foot eye coordination are non-existant.

Food:
6″ ckn breast sub, Arnold Palmer drink
1 slice pepperoni w/ japs
1 small salad oil vinegar dressing
1 Vino’s Pils
1 Scrimshaw
1 double Jack in tall glass with water
1 ckn flavored ramen noodles

Yeah, in that order.

P90X is tough. I’m trying to bring it.

Slight confession, I didn’t exercise all weekend. It was my first time to Deer Camp and it was amazing. A few quick points on that:

• Deer Camp should be call beer/whiskey camp
• Deer meat is awesome
• Deer Camp is a grown man’s club house
• So much more

I completed the Day 3 routine right before I got on the road to head down to camp. Once I got to camp it no exercise was going to happen, except for manual labor around the camp. So thats it for my confession.

Now to the good stuff. I started back with the routine today completing day 4. YogaX was extreme. I remember thinking to myself how tough it was while sweat poured from my pores. I have more respect for Yoga and it’s masters. I learned that I am not limber and I have a lot of work to do. I think I will be a new man in 86 days. Perhaps it is too soon to be counting down days but screw it.

Here is the food intake:

Breakfast

• 1 serving eggs
• 1 serving skillet potatoes
• 1 serving plain
• 1 biscuit w/ sausage gravy
• 1 cup coffee
• 1 latte

Lunch

• grilled chicken salad

Now the Nyquil is kicking in and I am off to bed.
