Day 35

So it's been a few days, but I've been a bit busy. Finished my first week of school and i've got quite a bit of reading to do. My intro to business course is pretty interesting because the teacher doesn't mind stating his views on the economy, which just so happens to be most of what I see as well. My intro to financial accounting is going to be a bit different though. The teacher is a complete goon and I'm not really sure I'm liking his method of teachings. My history of world religions is going to be very interesting. Granted it's from 7:00 - 9:50 on Thursday night, when I've been up since 4:00 in the morning to go to work. The teacher is pretty fun and enlightning and I didn't even realize the class had gone by so quickly.

Only bummer thing about school right now is that I'm trying to do my first quiz online but the website won't even register the fact that I'm registered. AH-nnoying!!

So with waking up around 4:30 every morning and not getting home until at least 8:30 - 9:00 everynight Monday-Thursday, how do I get my workouts in? That's right, I'm doing them late at night with Thursday being my off day (up at 4:00, home at 11:00 - not much time to workout). But so far, it's going very well. I just did Chest, Shoulders & Triceps yesterday and I think it might be one of my new favorites. I felt EVERY single workout and I was modifying, but I like it when I feel the burn and know that I am going to progress :)

So today will be Cardio X, not too excited because it's got yoga in it - I am not a fan of yoga. Ugh, but I will definitely get in and do it! Because that's what a P90X addict does!!! lol

Day 29

Well, it was my first day back to school....it was my Intro to Business class and somewhat interesting yet somewhat boring because it was all orientation stuff. But I think that I will learn quite a bit from the class and the teacher seems to have the same views on the b.s. that's happening with the economy right now. So needless to say, I believe this class will be alright, and it's only a 9 week course :)

I didn't get home until about 8:00 tonight so I decided to make it my Ab Ripper X workout: "I hate it, but I love it!" - Tony Horton The guy cracks me up! Is it a bad thing that I quote him as I am working out??? Naw, I didn't think so either. But I can definitely tell that my core is getting stronger because I can do more of the ab workout and not modify as much. Oh believe me, I'm still modifying! That Tony is crazy!! One of this days, maybe day 90, I'll be able to go full blown and keep up with the bugger.

So tomorrow is day 30, my weighing day!! I forgot to do my measurements at the beginning of the workout, so I'm going to do that tomorrow as well. So I will be able to see a difference with the last 60 days. It's all about progression right? Right! But right now I think it's all about sleep. My eyes are getting droopy and that 4:30 alarm is going to start buzzing sooner then I want it to :(

Day 28

This is it....I'm on day 28 of P90X and I am definitely feeling it!! I haven't done my workout today yet, I'm taking care of the winery while the parentals are doing a day away in Redding. But I can totally feel the past 2 day's workouts! Chest and Back from Thursday and Legs and Back from Saturday, plus the Abs too. Such a feel good hurt!! I haven't weighed myself yet, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing? I figured I would do it on a monthly basis instead of a weekly....I think that's how P90X likes you to do it. Plus I think I have to take my pictures again too. Ugh, that's never fun!

Another big thing happening now is that I go back to school tomorrow. I'm only taking 3 classes, because our community college is lame and doesn't offer hardly any evening classes, but I figure this is a way for me to ease back into to school and homework. So I'm taking Business, Accounting and History of World Religions classes....all pre-reqs for Business Administration. I still don't know what I want to do, but I figure having a Business degree can take me in any direction.

So that's me for now. Just working, going to school, exercising like crazy and hopefully getting in a few days of fun!
