New mountain bike…

I’ve been having some issues with my mountain bike lately so I put together a Spinscape map of some new options. The main problem is that I’m 6′5″ and apparently that’s pretty big even for an extra large Cannondale Rush 5 frame.

Let me know what you think about the ideas I have here.

Finished p90x for the second time!!!

Well, I’ve been pretty busy so please forgive the lack of updates on my progress with p90x. Good news is that I just finished it for the second time. Below you can see my comments on Phase III.

Week 7 and 8…done…on to Phase III.

Weeks 7 and 8 went by without a hitch. This round seems like it is flying by. The sick pack is back, and I’m feeling the love again.

Phase II – Week 6 is history…woohoo!

Hey there all you p90x junkies. A little update on my progress…I just finished Week 6 and feel freakin’ great. I’m minutes away from starting week 7’s routine. (Chest, shoulders, and tris.)

Phase II – Week 5 of p90x is in the can…almost literally.

Finished week 5, which in p90x is the first week of Phase II. This is where you add a bit more carbs into your diet and start confusing your muscles by introducing some change into your workout.
The first time through p90x I noticed that after the “recovery” week I had trouble getting going again. [...]

P90x week 4 update and new protein…film at a 11.

Hey gang, just wanted to chime in with the results of phase one of P90x. This is really my second round going through the program. I finished round one somewhere around June of last year. Then I took a few months off to mountain bike and try to be active without the stress of P90x, but I’m back in the saddle.

Weeks 2 and 3 of p90x…

Sorry about missing last week…here’s the scoop though.

I still haven’t missed a day for round 2 of p90x. I just finished week 3 on Friday and am now on to the “rest” week. Rest basically means 2 days of Yoga, 1 day of Kenpo, 2 days of Core Synergistics (ugh…brutal), and 2 days of stretching.

Week one of round two: P90x

Week one of round two of p90x is now in the bag. As I look back on the week, I’m pretty pleased. I made it through every workout, some with better success than others. I believe my new idea of starting on Saturday rather than Monday is working extremely well. So here is a recap:

What does my p90x set up look like? Plus much more…

I’m getting ready to start my second pass through p90x. My first time through was amazing. Out of the 90 day program I missed one day due to travel (yoga day). The program worked wonders for me.

You can see pictures of my first round later in the post. Read on!
