It's Time for P90X!

Over 90 days starting August, I'll be embarking on the P90X workout program. For those of you who thrive on late night infomercials, it's that system developed by Tony Horton and produced by Beach Body for getting average-ly healthful people into superb shape over a 90 day period. If you've seen the commercials, you should at least remember the before and after photos, cause they are RIDICULOUS. We're talking about moderate to actively athletic people becoming absolutely ripped. Seriously, the infomercial is down right absurd, and I'm embarrassed to admit I've watched it from end to end about 4-5 times.

In case you're wondering "what's with this guy who sits on his ass at 2 in the morning watching the P90X workout promo," I can only say that it's not like I'm sitting at home surrounded by grilling machines or sandwich makers, or 50 different workout DVDs and every knife set I can get my hands on. OK... there was one moment of weakness like 5 years ago (long before I knew anything about exercise) where I bought the 6 Second Abs machine. That's the plastic contraption that looks like a pogo stick where you can do crunches seated while watching TV (I'm constantly reminded of that scene with the hitchhiker in "There's Something About Mary" - see below). Yeah, that was a totally USELESS contraption! I would have ordered P90X anways, but the exercise package was actually given me as a gift for my 28th birthday a few weeks back.



By the end of autumn, I'll have a very comprehensive, independent review and overview of the P90X workout system. I'll share the process before, during, and after, including my nutrition and eating habits as well as the preparation I'll be putting in prior to the start of the program. I chose august as the start date not only for prep, but since that's the best time when I can commit to doing consistant daily workouts AND to following the rigid nutrition plan outlined by P90X. I'm living in New York City right now and will be moving to San Francisco at the end of July. I have to be realistic - there's no way I'm following a healthy workout diet during my last months in Manhattan!
