My P90-X Journey

I stumbled across P90X when looking for Plyometric workouts. After reading about it, doing some research on it, I decided it was the ‘kick in the rear’ I needed after having been on my exercise program for nearly 3 years. It certainly has kicked me in the rear, no doubt.

I dropped 11% body fat on this program, got my jump back, discovered that you can train to be flexible and restored my drive and love of strength training. P90X is so well rounded, so well done; combining strength resistance training, cardio training and flexibility work that it keeps me interested, working hard and pushing harder every workout. And the result is not only fitness, attention to eating cleaner (why do all the work and mess it up with my diet?), it’s made me into a more competitive and better soccer player. At age 41, I never thought I would even come close to saying words like that.
