It's the freaking holidays bro!!

I intend to get a minimum of 4 workouts/week between T-day and New Years. Goal is to maintain through the holidays then hit it hard again after New Years.

EX-ACK-LY...........

Most people will put on 4 to 8+ pounds in the month of Dec.... If we are hitting it hard and kicking ass..... you'll be able to eat even more of the "GOODIES"...... and still MAKE progress..... not just maintain.

When we are full bore........ the body is a calorie burning machine!!


So.... any takers..... or is this Puss-Vill.........

as soon as i get mine im going balls to the wall... its the only way ill stay with it. ups says it will get here the 27th but i doubt they deliver on the holiday...so it will be saturday or sunday when i start the program. i guess i could do some sit ups and pushups just to be doing something.

tomorrow im building my chin-up bar that is strong enough to hold my 240 pounds of "how you doin"

Starting on mine sometime mid-jan. Going to live the good life and use as much time to myself while I can.

What I think I'm going to do though. Is modify it a little bit. I'm going to use the p90x for yoga, plyo, ab ripper.. basically anything that doesnt require me to lift weights and I'm going to be on a pretty stringent weight lifting program while I have the free gym at my disposal. I may ship myself some bands while I'm gone but I dont feel as if using the bands with the p90x program will be as good as doing all of the p90x exercises on my own in the gym with their equipment.

I am in..only Kris & I are starting back up the Monday after Thanksgiving, we will just be a few days behind you guys. We have been working out like dogs & really haven't taken much of a break since JULY We need a few days off, so we are taking Wednesday to Sunday this week. Not quitting, just need a break!!

[jjmolleck]

ok i think im all set... got my p90x in the mail today, built my chin-up bar last night... and got my dumbells out. must have been curling 40 pounds last time i was lifting.... i think im gonna back it off to 25 till i get a feel for the program.

one thing.... is it possible to be discouraged before you start the program?? i couldnt resist trying some pullups once i had my bar built... i could only do 3 (palms facing me) i used to be able to do 12-15 no problem... and i thought with my lifting 180lb kegs all day i wouldnt have lost that much. this is gonna be a LONG 90 days

back the weights down, I was curling 35's when I worked out but you'll have to pace yourself when doing this or you'll poop out halfway through

Back the weights down. I was curling 45# in the gym when I started and I had to go to 25#. Presently at 30#. There are a few moves where I grab 10# plates from a set I used to use. Usually for shoulder exercises. There is no 'down time' in the program. Every set is about 45 seconds and you jump right into the next one.

I could not do a single pull up at the beginnng. Use a chair to HELP you get 8 reps or so, but don't over use the chair. The reps will come.

[Cycleman]

JJ..... I couldn't do but ONE pull up.... so you are ahead of the game, bro.

I start tomorrow....

Quite excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jjmolleck]

right behind you mikey.... i start sunday with my wife.... i did some healthier shopping and had it in my lunch yesterday... wasnt too bad. for breakfast i had 3 bran muffins and 2 cups of coffee. midmorning snack a banana and an orange. lunch was a EAS protein bar and natures valley granola bar with two bottles of water. mid afternoon was another banana and orange. dinner was some chicken pasta stuff my wife makes. this may not be "bringing it" but my normal routine would be two packs of poptarts about 8 sodas over the course of the day, pizza for lunch and God knows what for dinner....and my wife for desert

i can live with this so far.

[Cycleman]

Alrighty!!!

We all should pretty much be getting it going this week, sometime.

Don't forget before photos !!
