Days 1, 2, & 3 Power 90 X

So I have restarted again, how many time have you heard that right…I decided as an accountability measure I needed to start blogging daily on my progress and failures.

Day 1: Core Synergystics. This workout was pretty tough, but at the same time I love the way it makes me feel. All day I was able to feel like my core was tight, my back was straight, and my posture was good. The workout consists of quite a bit that I will detail out next week as to ensure this post does not end up 500 pages long.

Day 2: Cardio-X. It is just what it says it is, Cardio. This workout has a good mix of Plyometrics, Yoga, and Kenpo that keeps the heartrate up for almost the entire workout. I love the rush I get from this one as well.

Day 3: Arms and Shoulders + Ab-ripper-X: The arm workout just blows your arms and shoulders up, I was exhausted by the time I was finished. The ab-ripper is gonna take me some time to get worked up to the whole thing. I was able to do about 15 reps of 3 exercises this morning before I had to stop.

All in all I think that so long as I take my weight loss in small chunks and keep pushing play I should be okay. I think the Power 90 X workout is what is going to take me to where I want to be.

Whats going on lately?

So I have decided after some very wise counsel that I am not ready for the level of competition that is Crown Tournament. I am not financially, emotionally, or physically ready for something of that magnitude. There are so many things to consider in being Sovreign that I don’t believe that 1/2 the people who enter ever think about. You are responsible for so much stuff and in that so much money that I don’t know that I will ever want that responsibility.

I restarted Power90X (again) and I am on Day 3, I am sore but happy. Kindra and I are really motivated to get fit and get back to the bodies that we should have. I am looking forward to the first cycle and even more to the end of the second cycle. I hope in 6 months to have the body I have always wanted and look the way I should have always looked. Only I can make that happen! I want this and need this!

I am also working up a workout for the pell and for the boy to work on. I really want him to succeed, I just am not comfortable being made to feel like a father figure, I said I would help him get his armour together and help him learn to fight. Putting me in the situation of hollering at him for one thing or another is not really within my comfort zone.

I start school tonight. I am still a bit apprehensive, but that is just my nature. I have never been one for new situations, but I always seem to get through them okay and end up making friends along the way. This semester is is easy, just one math class. Next semester I will probably do two, depends on how the load affects me. Should not be to bad though. I have been thinking that Psychology may be the way for me to go. Nothing says I have to do it all at once, I can start with a BA and then go for a MA if I decide to persue that path. Only time will tell.

Other then that, Kindra got her cast off, she is still pretty irritated that she cannot immediately move it and make it do her bidding, but that will just take time.
