P90x
 
When I'm not flying, I'm in the gym doing me some P90X. Do I have any brothers or sisters out there who consistently bring it!? I'm pretty dedicated, had an overnight in Albuquerque and did plyometrics in the hotel gym....plyometrics at 6,000 feet is not the most pleasant experience. On the flip side, the hotel washing machine was broken, fortunately I was able to get my uniform washed on my abs.

In all seriousness, P90X is a great program for those of us who travel a lot as it doesn't take much equipment at all and you can do almost everything in even the most primitive hotel gym. I've seen great results!

Tomorrow...er...Today...er... Wednesday the 28th is Day 1 of recovery week 1 for me. This is the 7th or 8th time I've tried starting it. The first time, I got through about 54 days. This time I've got enough motivation to get through all 90 days. Keep pressing play!

Well they say if you work out for an hour every day, eat right and don't drink beer you will get in shape. What do they use magic?

I could go off on a big spiel here. But like somebody else said, doesn't matter what you do. If you find a workout program, stick to it, and eat right, you're gonna see change.

Bear in mind, the infomercial has to sell the product, your results will vary.

When I started I was 12% body fat, 34 inch waist. The first month I was down an inch on the waist. By the end, I was down to a 31.5 inch waist and 8% body fat. With the exception of 2 5-day breaks, my workout discipline was 100%, diet not so much. This job is just too tough for that, but I did the best I could. Can't tell you how many McD's salads and chicken sandwiches I ate in that 90ish day period.

For anybody concerned about a recovery drink, consider chocolate milk. yeah, I know it sounds funny, but google it.

I used to HATE HATE HATE the plyo workout. Now I freaking love it!

Due to a severe QOL change, I can't do the P90X 100% anymore. But as a staple for leg/cardio, I do the plyo every week. For additional cardio I also do the Kenpo, combined with just light resistance weight training to maintain what I had at the end of the 90 days.
