Grab your partner man!!!!!

Working out with a partner is so much better than going at it alone.  So I suggest that you ask around to family and friends and get moving.  In my small town we started a 90 day challenge.  Ppl in the neighborhood along with family and friends have all joined in to get healthier in 90 days.  Everyone has picked their own method but the goal for all is the same.


At home my whole family is involved in this new lifestyle change.  I workout with my fiancee and my children workout together.  It helps so much having a partner.  When I don't want to workout he pushes me and vice versa.  I see the same with my children.  When one don't feel up to it the others will give them that needed push.  Working out with a partner also makes the time fly by.  We talk and laugh during the workout, it helps take your mind of the exercise even if its for a few seconds.  Sometimes its those last seconds that you need distracting from to get to through the burn.  Also I enjoy watching his transformation and I hope he enjoys watching mine.  The other day I commented on how he looks as if a sculptor is molding and reshaping his body.  I see him gaining muscle in so many areas and loosing fat in others. 

After P90X my fiancee grabs a few of his friends and they go for an hr long walk, then hit the weight room (mainly bc his friends aren't doing the p90X  and he just wants to be their encourager) to get a little extra weightlifting in with the guys, then he's off to work (he's a barber) After my workout I go to work.  Lol I have been thinking of incorporating walking hopefully next week to help prepare me for my summer goal of running.  I have dreams of running along side Lake Michigan. 

Go out and grab someone and ask them if they are interested in some support.  It will be good for both of you!!!  There's no better gift to share than the gift of health.  You never know you may inspire someone to get up and make a life changing decision to get fit for life.  Know that healthier eating habits and exercise should be a lifestyle change....after all its good for you right?  So until next time:


REMEMBER TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH IN THE SHOWER!!!!

Starting Phase 2: Keep pushing play

Quick Blog:

I am watching the 1st wrkout in Phase 2 and I am a lil scared lol.  I know I haven't blogged in a while but I have been busy wrking overtime and keeping up with the kids and doing p90x (still going strong).  Tired is not the word I would use to describe what I have been feeling.  But my motivation out weighted the tiredness.  I see my body changing.  Yes!!!! OK diet still not what the nutritional guide suggests but for the most part I am eating more leaner, more veggies, and fresh fruits.  At this point I am very very very pleased with my results.  I am stronger, more focused, more energetic (but tired weird huh?), happier.  Wow happier did I just type that.  

I did the lean program for the 1st Phase.  2nd Phase I'm goin to classic.  I am ready to Bring it!  I have decided to post my pics bc I am truly sticking with it.  This is the longest I have stuck with anything that has to do with my health.  P90x is Fun yet challenging.  I look forward to learning new routines, and to see my improvements week after week.  Anyone that has a competitive edge in them will enjoy the challenge that is p90x.  

But back to my scariness, Chest, shoulders, and triceps is scary.  But as my baby just reminded me we was afraid day 1. It really helps having him wrkout with me we encourage each other b4, during, and after.  Well I figured I blog since I had some free time. I'll be back to talk about week 4 recovery week.  And me having a breakdown and almost quitting o and how I felt when I pulled clothes outta my "box" and they actually fit some things were too big in some cases.  So until next time:

Remember to brush your teeth in the shower!!
