Its been awhile since I only worked out 4 days in one week. I know its still pretty good but it was not as good as last week. I am doing my best to stick with the Power 90 workout. The Sculpt and Sweat Phase 3-4 are very good workouts but I feel like I am beyond what they are doing. There is a lot of variety with each dvd but I now know why P90X is that much more popular than Power 90. With Power 90 there are 3 dvds with 2 workouts each totaling 6 different workouts. P90X has 12 different workouts that are 15 minutes longer than Power 90 and introduce more exercises that work on specific muscles and not a general body workout.
Dad is doing ok but his eating is kind of pissing me off. We met up to do the Power 90 Sweat Phase 3-4 and he decided to eat a hamburger and fries before we worked out so he could have some “energy.” I don’t get this logic. A apple or banana would have been better instead of fries and a burger. The body just cannot process that type of food before a workout. Maybe after it could with the metabolism being high. Then I learned from mom that he had ice cream 3 times this week.
He does have quite the sweet tooth but without a change in his diet all of this working out is not going to get him in the kind of shape he wants to be in. Him and mom have a copy of the nutrition plan and know how to cook healthy meals but its just a matter of changing habits. I might need to go through the fridge and the drawers and throw all of the junk food out.
I put up another video of me on YouTube showing people what the P90X Legs and Back workout looks like. I am pretty happy with how it turned out and am getting use to the editing program on my computer. It even received a few comments and over a hundred views in the first couple of days. I am not sure what one I will do next but I enjoy showing people what they can expect from P90X and how awesome it is.
Yes the “honey buns, ho ho’s and fudge brownies” definitely need to go, for your mom’s sake too. You should put up a sign on the sweets cupboard that says “i can hear you getting fatter, eat an apple instead.”
