Got back into it

Ya, I skipped a day. I did not do the Yoga and I have not posted in 2 days. Plus I took my cheat day yesterday, and had some good ole shrimp fried rice and some greasy crab cheese wontons!!! They were great!! But I got back at it today with legs and shoulders and ab ripper. It was a good workout, I really feel it in my legs.

This week has been a long week for me, and its not over yet, I have to go into work at 730am then go back in at midnight.... And everyday this week I have had to come in to work early in order to do some paper work.

Every intramural basketball game I played in this week has gone into double overtime. All wins by the way!! I'm happy to say that my clutch rating is still above 90. Also, I played flag football Tuesday through Thursday. I still got the good ole hands, but my quickness isnt where it used to be. My top speed is still pretty good, But it takes me longer to get there. Nevertheless, guys don't think I can run when they first see me, so I get an advantage from surprising them. Im happy to say that I can still beat a lot of guys in a footrace to the inzone.

I havnt even had time to play any XBOX!!. I'm actually looking forward to getting back into Halo Wars, it was getting more and more entertaining. Also I wanted to give Star Ocean a chance. I have not had time to really get into an RPG in a long time, so I doubt I put time into it. Hopefully next week will be a little more calm for me so I can get a little chill time between working out, work, chilling with the family and playing ball.

Till then I will leave you with the song of the moment. Heard this song playing Rock Band 2 and its stuck in my mind.

Workout cut short

Well I was 45 min into my Plyometrics workout when I got called into work to sign something, so I missed out on 20 min of my workout. I don't think it will hurt me much in the long run because I have had a pretty active two days.

Yesterday I played a little flag football with the guys from my job, then directly after that I had an intramural basketball game that we ended up wining after double overtime.

And today after I had another Intramural basketball game, that we pretty much dominated, but none the less, I ran up and down pretty hard. We have another game tonight, but I think I am going to skip out on that one because we have another one tomorrow night and I do not want to burn myself out.

So the last couple of days, I have been staying pretty active, which is good, because I am sure to slim down as long as I keep with the workout, diet and stay active.

Sooner than later I will be back to dunking on folks, and I will tune you all in on when I get back to that point..... Im guessing a month 1/2 I will have enough of my lift back to get up there.

Til then, check my wife's blog.... she likes to pose half naked, thats how she gets all those views lol.

Good workout this morning

Yesterday I took a day off, I did not do the stretch X, I just laid around the house and played Halo Wars.

This morning I stepped on the scale and I weighed a disappointing 232. I did not do my body fat % I will do that next time I weigh in... Next Monday.

That motivated me to hit this workout hard. This is my favorite day, arms and shoulders. I can really feel this workout when im done with it. Then I did the killer Ab Ripper X and I got more reps in than previous times, so I am not disappointing with my progress in the program.

I know the weight will drop, I just expected to have dropped around 2lbs the first week.

On another note, I had a box of girl scout cookies last night. We purchased them a while back and they delivered them yesterday. This is sort of a reenactment of how the situation went down.

I am the dog and the lady is the girl scout.



But unlike Stains, I got the cookies and ate em.......

Nothing eventful today

Today's workout was Yoga X. I was excited about this workout yesterday, but when it came time to do it, I really was not motivated to get into it. And it didnt help that I don't have an ounce of flexibility!

But I did the workout and I did the best I can, hopefully I will be able to increase my flexibility by the end of the program. I'm sure I will as long as I push myself a little further each time I go through Yoga.

My body was very fatigued today. I woke up early and went to the gym to play basketball. I felt like I was good to go, but after a while my body was not having it. I only played 2 games, but they were 2 good games, good cardio and good competition. About an hour after playing ball I jumped into the Yoga, which I felt was a mistake, because my body was still fatigue from playing ball.....

And right after that I took a nice long much needed nap.

Tomorrow I get to choose rather to take the day off totally or do the stretching video. Right now I am leaning towards stretching but I am going to wait and see how I feel. But I am going to sleep in!! probably til around 11am.

My first cheat day.

Okay, im going to explain the cheat day thing first. I do want to eat healthier, but I still want to enjoy those bad for me foods that I have always eaten. So I give myself 1 day a week to eat some bad foods, and today was my first day.

Me and my lovely wife went on a date to this Japanese restaurant, Okinawa. I highly recommend this place. The food was great, had my first experience with sushi, they cooked the food at the table and it only cost 25 bucks. Great deal, and a great date with my wife.

Also, I'm proud of myself for not going overboard on the cheat day. I had steamed rice and steak and scallop teriyaki. But when I got home, i did get into some oreos that my moms brought over for me. So that was it for my first cheat day. Next week I plan on getting busy on someting greasy!!! Maybe Popeye's or maybe some Jenkin's Bar B Que Ribs.......

Today I realized I switched out one of my workouts on accident, I was supposed to do Yoga X thursday, but I did Kempo X, so tommorow I get to do Yoga X, im excited about that. Today was Legs and Back. It was a good workout, im definatly feeling it right now.

Im gonna leave you guys with my song of the moment. Check it out.

My first Kempo Experience

Todays P90X workout was Kempo X, which I found out that is nothing more than martial arts for a cardio workout. So far this is the most enjoyable workout. I feel by the end of the 90 days, I will be a Kempo blackbelt and I will be a badass like this guy...



Ya... thats gonna be me in 90 days. And I figure I would use it on my son if he acts up. A quick face claw then hammer thrust to the chest.... he is sure to not act up then LOL. J/P.


Overall, today I feel pretty good. going into day 4 and I have not missed a workout, and I am watching what I eat (though I have to eat more). Monday I am going to do my first weight in since I started to see where I am with my weight. I feel like I will drop quite a few lbs early then level off around 220. My goal is 215 by the end of the 90 days.

Feelin a lil sore

Todays workout was shoulders and arms and im still feeling a little sore from Mondays workout. I like that sore feeling, it makes me feel like I am accomplishing something. So if you havn't figured it out, I plan on posting every day for 90 days, the duration of the program.

Hopefully through these posts you will get the overall mood that I am in for that day.

But back to the program.
I think I am going to create my own meal plan using thier portions guide. I dont like most of thier meals, and the food takes to long to prepare. Creating a meal plan is going to be a chellenge in itself because I am completely new at it. I dont want to ask my wife to do it because she will go overboard and have me eating leaves, trees, soy pizzas and all kinda super healthy stuff that I am not ready to dive into J/P.

I just dont want to burden her with something that I NEED to do for myself.

So probably starting Friday, I am going to sit down and start on my meal plan, and hopefully have it ready by Sunday so I can do my grocery shopping and a lil cooking.

Well thats all for now, Im about to get on XBOX LIVE for about 30 minuites and get on that new
Street Fighter 4. Ya I am a Gamer, but I will discuss that in future posts.
