I’ve done it! I’ve completed week 4 of P90X! I’m totally happy right now, I barely have anything to say. It’s been fun, hard, challenging and most of all rewarding. I can’t say like the infomercials do “I’m in the best shape of my life”, but I sure feel like I’m on track to be.

This has been the best week so far, for P90X, so much cardio and moving around…I’m not happy that it started with Yoga on Sunday and will end with Yoga on Friday. Tonight I nearly burned 1000 calories with Kempo X…!
I was just thinking, that I’m meeting my goals, but isn’t this suppose to be a summer break? I’m having fun….But where is the break….
Woho-ah-woah Todd…Wait just one minute, you can either workout like crazy, have an amazing time at work or go back to Calculus at school…Ok OK, I get it! =]
All-in-all in terms of my personal goals this summer, everything is going great.
—Two of my Highschool buddies started P90X this week it seems as well. It was great to talk to Katie about it and share some of the things that I’ve learned. Keep it up guys, don’t give up the dream! You can do it.
I saw the full HD Trailer tonight. Initially I was thinking I didn’t want to see it, but once it started playing there was no way I could take my eyes off its wonder-fullness.
Anyway, I watched it twice and i’m so excited…It’s sad really that this giant part of my teen years will be coming to an end here in less than a year. But at the same time I’m very excited about it! It looks really dark and I love when I see exact parts from the books in the movies. It’s so strange isn’t it, where we are now and where we started with The Sorcerer’s Stone…I love it ^___________^.
PS — To add more to the nerdness tonight, Harry Potter Lego Years 1 – 4 comes out tomorrow. Initially I pre-ordered it on Amazon.com, but after they pushed the release date back a month or whatever they did…I cancelled the order. Then yesterday I saw a review about it again on Mugglenet and thought $30 would be good for all they were describing it to be. I ordered it through Steam, it’s downloaded and installed…Now I just have to wait till tomorrow after work to play it when Steam automatically activates it. (I love this feature — I will be buying MORE games through Steam now.)
Well, what can I say. I’m finally getting what I’ve always wanted more than anything. Getting Fit. I’m still super excited that three weeks have gone by and I’ve not given up. Nearly every day (minus Yoga Day….Yoga can still piss off…) I’ve given 110% effort on everything. Week after week I’ve been seeing improvements in my cardio, the fact that I can run around now without breathing very hard. Overall it’s awesome.
I bought a heart monitor watch this past weekend, but it only just arrived for Yoga day on Wednesday…However I didn’t use it for Yoga or Back and Shoulders day, as it would just get in the way. I will go into a small review sometime next week when I have more time and less words since this post has already gone for a walk.
Although my end goal is not to loose weight, I’ve noticed that my muscles are starting to get stronger and more active. At the same time today was the first time I stepped on the scale to find out that in the three week I’ve done the program I’ve lost 5 pounds! (Woot!)
— Like I said, I’m not trying to loose weight, but if working out gets a few pounds of fat off, and gets more more muscle, then yes that is my ultimate goal.
Thanks for all the support from my friends pushing me and encouraging me during the program!
I must say I’m having quite a lot of fun because school is no in session, but I’m ready to go back so that I can get my degree completed, only a year to go and I’ll be living the dream. =]
As you may have saw yesterday I upgraded to WordPress 3.0 and I love every bit of it. Not only have they improved some of the functionality of the backend that I’ve hated, but I can totally feel my blog being faster and more efficient. Also this new theme that came with the update “Twenty Ten” is perfect. I’ve customized the background image with an awesome space image and the banner at the top use to be static, but is now a cropping of the last picture I took with my camera phone.
As the title states I’m going to spend more time blogging, telling everyone what I’ve been up to, what projects I’ve been working on. Moreover I’m going to be taking more pictures again and sharing what I can of my life with the world wide web.
