It’s been a fun couple weeks.  Lot’s of family stuff going on, vacation with the holiday’s and I’ve not had much time to get out my updates as regularly as I would have liked.  But I hope everyone is still out there pressing play, bringing it with each and every workout as you should be.  This is a great time of year to get started, get focused on what is best for you, your health, your future. 

I’m enjoying my 3rd round right now with P90x/insanity hybrid.  It’s been challenging to say the least actually. Probably so far my hardest round from all fronts.  including pressing play, finding that motivation myself to get in there each and everyday to press play, eat healthy and do what is right for myself.  But, what I do to keep myself going on is my desire to be the best that I can. To be healthy for the future, and stick to what has motivated me over the past year to staying consistent. 

I’m loving the results I’ve felt just in these mere 4 weeks, finishing the recovery week right now.   I get to dig back into the 2nd phase on Monday and use my new Select tech dumbbells from Bowflex. I’m really excited to push further now with my weight training side of the program, while still getting the cardio benefits from Insanity.  I may begin throwing in a few doubles (extra cardio) a couple days a week.  Really depends on how my schedule plays out over the coming weeks.  The key, is consistency, having a little fun and pushing yourself to reach beyond those obstacles that hold us back more times than we would like.

Focus on where you want to take your program.  Create the goals, create the motivation and accountability around you that will help fuel you to day 90 and beyond. This isn’t simply a 90 day program.  This is a life changing experience for me, as it should be with you.  Find out how to get yourself and your body into the best shape it has ever been. Feel good about yourself.  There isn’t any reason you can’t.

Contact me, I’d love to talk with you about your goals and where you want to go with your fitness program.  It’s there for the taking. You can do anything you want in the world, there isn’t anything holding us back! you can find me in WOWY each and everyday around 9pm pressing play, creating my accountability with my buddies and friends that have the same interests as I do.

Yes, the train keeps moving on.  And it is a great ride indeed.  Day 8 and Day 9 and Day 10 of the P90x Round 3 hybrid continues with lots of fun, sweat and soreness.  But that I welcome.  My body is still adjusting and adapting to the change in routines and by the time it thinks it is fully adjusted, phase 2 will come along.  I’ve been really trying to up the ante more this time around.  I think the biggest struggles continue to be in the fine tuning stages. 

Day 8 –> Chest & Back / Cardio abs   Now who doesn’t like a little dose of reality with some chest and back and an incredible ab workout that doesn’t do any crunches.   Increasing my  numbers for both pull-up’s and push-up’s is critical this round and I’m making great progress.  From week 1 –> week 2 this time I have felt much better with form.  Getting deeper on the diamond push-up’s and just all around loving the feel so far.

Day 9 –> Max interval Plyo was a great feeling of getting some feel back from Month 2 of insanity.  Month 2 steps things up a notch and adds a longer workout and an increased intensity.  So this is a great substitute for the P90x Plyometrics I feel.  I think it is important to mix things up, get some variety in.  But those doing the standard 90 day program from P90x, the Plyometrics is awesome still.  I’ve done it many times and it does a phenomenal job of kicking you in the butt.  It is true when Tony calls it the “Mother of all workouts’.  Anything that is Plyo based is going to be tough.

Day 10 –> Shoulders & Arms / Ab Ripper X   Had a great night doing shoulders & arms.  I will say that I had to tone it down a bit with the tricep workouts.  Was feeling a little tweak of sorts in my right elbow.  Would only show up in certain motions. So we’ll be keeping an eye on it.  Otherwise everything has gone wonderful.  The biceps were on fire and shoulders after the workout.  Which is such a great feeling. :). 

Are you having fun? Are you ready to take on a challenge? Are you ready to get in the best shape of your life? Then take a look at P90x. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced lifter, runner, etc.  P90x will take you to that next level and due to its great ability to be modifiable to fit your needs, your fitness level it is perfect.

I started it without having done anything for a long time.  I was a total couch potato that just didn’t have the motivation or desire to workout.  But I made it fit my fitness level on Day 1 almost a year ago when I make the right decision.  You can to, have success, feel like you are now on top of the world with your energy and health.  Just take that first step and decide and get it.  I’m here to help you from Day 1 as your free fitness coach.  My motivation is fueled by your motivation to reach  your goals and be successful and get healthy.

We have a finite amount of time on this great planet, so let’s extend it. It takes work and commitment to get healthy, stay fit, and live a lifestyle that will allow you to get the most out of each and everyday! Contact me with any questions and how to get started. Take a look at the programs available here.

Peace!

Week 1 has come and gone!  I am so excited to be back doing another round of it.  I missed Tony and his crazy witty sayings. But they work.  They got me to where I am now through 2 rounds the first part of the year.   This first week had me looking a bit confused first day or so. I wasn’t 100% prepared with my equipment and the wife commented that I looked ‘lost’. hehe.  But I got my act together and it was all good.  It was tough to be honest getting back up on that pull-up bar.  The push-up’s weren’t bad.  But man, it’s going to be a fun ride getting back into the groove with the pull-ups. 

Here is my latest Video Update for Week 1 update. It’s here for your viewing pleasure.

Week 1 Workouts

• Chest & Back / Ab Ripper X
• Plyometric cardio circuit
• Shoulders & Arms / Insane Abs
• Yoga X (40 minutes, cut short due to work)
• Legs & Back / Cardio Abs
• Pure Cardio
• Core Ball Sandwich / Basketball (2 hours) / Rest?

Overall my next 90 days are off to a great start! Loving the feeling of lifting again, and just something new.  Change is the spice of life, and when it comes to working out, variety helps keep us motivated and wanting to keep going.  This also allows our bodies to keep guessing at what we are trying to do to it. :).   Keep the muscles guessing and they continue to have to grow become stronger. This is why P90x itself if so effective at what it does.

Contact me with any questions about P90x, Insanity, Brazil Butt Lift, RevAbs, Chalean Extreme and any other BeachBody product that you might be interested in.  They each offer their unique flavor to getting fit, turning your lifestyle into a healthy one and all while having a little fun.  Each trainer is amazing and they know how to get the job done.

Each night, find me in WOWY @ 9PM EST. BuddyName: KevinPrice.  No better way to create accountability then working out with others and creating lasting relationships.  The community is amazing and there to help each other be successful.

Peace!

Beachbody  and Leandro Carvalho have come out with a new Hot and sexy workout program, that from the title focuses on getting a beautifully sculpted butt.  Sounds funny, but this is bigger than you think.  Leandro developed this program originally for a supermodel who wanted to get a lean slender look while shaping their butts, without bulking up their legs.  So Leandro came up with this approach called the Brazil butt Lift.

Just when we thought that two kids might be enough, we decided to go and have ourselves a third.  Yes, we are expecting our third child to arrive in the new year.  Sometime around January 10th, 2010 is the estimated time of arrival of our third munchkin.  Just when we thought 2 kept us busy.  Now, we’ll be outnumbered.  Scary thought.

You can watch the count down till baby price arrives on the right hand side.  Will post updates from time to time as milestones in the pregnancy are reached.   Ultrasounds, etc.

Now on to figuring out some names.  That should be fun. :)

If I get bored I’ll throw up a poll with a few names and see which one gets the most hits.   We’ll see.

I’ll really have to step up the workouts so I can keep up with them all. 

So was having a chat this evening with a friend and for some odd reason this came up.  We kept trying to determine what would come after thrice.  You say, at least have heard at some point in time in our lives  -  once, twice, thrice.  So we all make the assumption that it means 'three times'.  So is there something after thrice?  Doing some research, it appears, nothing ever came to continue down the path. 

Now the question is, would anyone actually ever use thrice in a sentence. Would you ever come up to someone and say ' are you still working out thrice a week?'  ?  Does it really fit into any real usage.  Can't really say so.  Where does the word come from even?  What was the intention?

 The best I could find were some references in Shakespeare, The King James Bible and some writing about the Roman times.  There was this band named 'thrice' also.  Which all i kept seeing in search engines were for their lyrics. Was a bit annoying when I was looking for something a bit more in depth.

maybe i'll keep digging. What else do I have to do. :)

So I was watching this new series on Fox.  Think it was Fox. Anyways, it is called DollHouse.    A show about mindless, programmable humans that can be geared to do anything that is imaginable for a price.  So while watching the show I heard the phrase, 'keep on'e shoulder to the wheel' nd hadn't really heard it before.  So felt i should look it up and see what it was all about.  One of the definition says 'work doggedly or persistently', or basically to keep on working hard.  It did fit for the context by which it was used in the movie.    As she was getting hunted down and kept plugging away to stay alive.

Some other similair phrases or terms were 'keep one's nose to the grindstone', 'plug away', and 'slog' . 

 Then, there was that word 'slog'.  Another term i'd never heard before. So while talking with a friend, who happens to live in england, mentioned this to him  and he went on to give me his version of the definition in his context.  One example I found   'an 18-hour slog in the hay fields'.

So this just goes to show my vocabulary sucks. 

Saw this quote and thought it was pretty interesting.  

"Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved." William Jennings Bryan

Is that true?  Does Chance play a role in the outcome of our lives?  Could the chance encounter with someone through a wrench into your choice to do something.  Sure, i wholeheartedly believe that you can't sit around on your lorals and wait for soemthing to happen. You need to take the bull by the horn, sorry for the cliche, but it is true.  You achieve what you work towards. You achieve your goals, dreams, aspirations by going out and making things happen by making the right choices, or even in some cases the wrong choices.
