Xcited

Big day, folks.  BIG DAY.

I was so pumped to start this morning, I didn't even need an alarm!  So it was after an early wake-up (which is a late wake-up for most, so I won't be sharing the actual time), White J and I finally completed our first P90X workout!  Chest & Back + Ab Ripper really socked it to us both.

The first of my ninety days turned up lacking in both power and extremeness.  Have you ever done a diamond push up?  Because this guy is really good at them:


...but I couldn't even do one.  Correction, I couldn't even do half of one.

I started at the top like normal, legs apart, hands in a diamond-ish shape.  I began my descent into the mid-pushup position, and then I fell flat on my face.  Unfortunately for you all, there is no video evidence of this, but just picture this face smashed into the shaggy, brown carpet of my living room:


Minus the Slanket, of course.  I don't work out in a Slanket.

Until Day 2!








(You may notice that it is two days after the projected start date.  It wasn't laziness, promise!  It's easier to keep in sync with the calendar if you start on a Monday.)
