Struggling but Making Progress

I've read this often, "Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym."

Front view my abs are showing already, and sideways too.  However, on this side view one can see the big chunk that needs to go.

I'm struggling with my diet, but tweaking it as I go along.  I've been fortunate to hook up with an older guy who is much into fitness, and knows a lot about nutrition.

P90X2 - Day 45 - Halfway Home

So I've been pounding on the newest beachbody product, P90X2.  It's a spinnoff of the famous P90X, which is recommended (marketed) to individuals who have completed P90X, at least once.

I've reached my day 45, and am pretty happy with the results of my hard work.

Airborne Pushups

Part of my routine to build strength, and burn fat is doing various other exercises I've learned along the way.  Here I am practicing airborne pushups.  Harder than it looks.

P90X - Doubles -Day 5

I don't know what I've gotten myself into, but now I'm in it, and I just gotta bite the bullet and do what I've set out to do.  I've completed 4 full days of doubles; that means doing P90X twice a day.  I am sore, and tired.

My current, premature, progress.

P90X - Doubles

I've been inactive for a couple of weeks due to a stubborn cold.  I miss working out hard, so I've decided to start a new round of P90X; however, I've decided to do the Doubles this time.  This means I will be doing the same thing twice a day.

These are the coldest months in Los Angeles, just getting out of bed is a challenge for me these days.  We'll see how long I can keep it up for, but given my persistance in the past, I'm sure I will finish it.

Come on 8pack! where are you?

Still working on it

It's the end of October 2011, and I'm still working hard on attaining this 8 pack.  One day at the time.

INSANITY Round 2 - Complete 6/5/2011

Round 2 of INSANITY is done, and I'm satisfied from the results.  However, I'm getting too skinny for my own taste.  Therefore, I've developed, and began my own workout routine from what I've learned from P90X, INSANITY, and research.  I will post it a little later.  It's now time to put on some muscles.
