Hey Team! This week I started my P90X2/Insanity: The Asylum hybrid! Man what a week! I have done a few a of the original Insanity routines in the past, but never a full 60 days. The Asylum program is based on a lot of the same cardio moves that are featured in Insanity, but with […]
Your favorite Shakeology Recipe will never be the same! Just kidding, actually… I recently alluded to the fact that Beachbody announced that changed to the Chocolate and Greenberry flavors of Shakeology and I wanted to give everyone a bit more information here than I had given at that time. Don’t worry, these changes won’t affect […]
What Is PX 90? You have heard so much about it, now you can find out what everyone is talking about. Well for starters, it’s actually P90X and P90X is a comprehensive in-home fitness and nutrition program proven to burn fat and reshape your body with lean muscle in just 90 days. In fact, if P90X doesn’t get […]
Hey Team! I’ve only got about 3 more days until I start my next 90 days. This time around it is going to be a hybrid of P90X2 and Insanity: The Asylum. Of course, I am pretty familiar with P90X2, but The Asylum…that is going to be entirely new for me. I have previewed some of the routines […]
Here’s the key to remember and what I think most people who struggle getting and staying on board don’t realize: It may seem easier to just “eat whatever” instead of planning and prepping your meals and sticking to an exercise program. But, that is just an illusion. When you eat at odd hours, skip meals, […]
Hey Team! Well, I can now say that P90X2 is behind me…At least for another 10 days or so when I start back up! P90X2 was such an awesome follow-up to the original and I am really happy with how they put this program together. You can read my review and see my results here: […]
As many of you know, back in January I started on my P90X2 journey, January 16th, 2012 to be exact. I actually received the new P90X2 program in mid-December and began to preview the routines in what was left in December and the beginning of January. I was able to sample every routine in the […]
Hey Team! Well…It’s Friday the 13th and so far nothing bad has happened to me…But honestly, I don’t put a lot of thought into things like that. As a matter of fact, I didn’t even realize it was Friday the 13th until I started thinking about this Check-In… This marks the final week of my […]
Back in January I started my first Challenge Group and most of the members of the group are just about or have recently completed their 90 day programs. Programs like P90X, P90X2, TurboJam and Ten Minute Trainer to name a few. In my opinion the group had tremendous success and all of the members who […]
Hey Team! I usually start off my weekly check-in with a little bit about how things are going for me. This week I am flipping the script and putting some team members in the spotlight who were graciously willing to share their success story with the rest of the team. It has been an awesome […]
Hey Team! Phase 3 of P90X2 has officially started for me and actually, by the time you are reading this, I’ll only have 2 weeks remaining! The final phase is somewhat repetitive with the routines, but they are some good ones; P.A.P. Upper and P.A.P Lower. What the heck is P.A.P.? It stands for Post-Activation […]
Hey Team! Nearing the end of a much needed recovery week for me! Then it will be the final push of P90X2 with the Performance Phase of the program, looking forward to the new routines. Recovery periods are important, so that your body has a chance to rejuvenate and get ready for another phase of […]
Day 60…whoa, that was pretty fast, at least it felt that way. This also marks the end of phase 2 for me. A grueling 6-week strength phase that brought on a ton of new moves from Tony Horton and his P90X2 program. The strength phase of P90X2 brought us some totally new routines; Chest + […]
Hey Team! Day 60 is here for me and I’ll be posting my photos later today or over the weekend. The first 60 days have really gone fast and now that I have only have 30 days left to P90X, I really need to buckle down and make sure I finish strong. Like me, many […]
Shakeology, at least in my opinion, was a real nutrition game changer! I have never had much weight to lose. I was a pretty much a skinny kid growing up and a relatively skinny guy after college. However, I was never that great about making sure I was getting everything my body needed from a […]
In most of my posts regarding nutrition, I like to provide a healthy snack or meal recipe that not only is delicious, but also helps to get you closer to that hard-body appearance that everyone is looking for. In this article, I’d like to give you healthy food ideas in a different way. This time, […]
WHY Why are you working out? Why are you reading this? Why are you pushing play? Why are you studying P90X, P90X2, Insanity, Pump, etc…, and watching YouTube videos to decide if you even WANT to push play? You can do all the research and planning you want, but if you haven’t asked yourself the […]
Are you a between-meal eater? Many of us are but are eating the wrong things… The fact is that should be eating between meals. If you only eating 3 meals a day; you aren’t keeping your metabolism going at its optimal rate. However, that doesn’t mean you have to visit the vending machine all day. There are […]
Do you consistently starve yourself until you get to the restaurant, and then order everything on the menu to fill the hunger gap? I, personally, don’t go out to eat that often. It is usually only when there is a special occasion to celebrate or if we are out and about running some errands and it is […]
Hey Team! Well, another week in the books! Is everyone still rocking it? The challenge groups are really fun to watch — people are fired up, bringing it at levels I never could have imagined, and the results keep pouring in of people who have totally transformed their health and fitness. It’s really awesome to […]
