Alright, a little background first...
I grew up playing sports. 3 sport varsity athlete in high school. D-1 college scholarship to Colorado State for football. Always more natural talent than hard work. Worked in gyms selling memberships for a couple years. Have grown up with, lived and currently live with elite physical trainers and professional athletes. AM ONE LAZY MOTHER FUCKER.
I played D-1 college football at a weight of 230lbs. Since then, the last 4 years have been filled with beers galore, food galore, and a minimal amount of working out which has caused a weight flux of 40-50 lbs. Im 6'3". My heighest weight was 290 lbs in december of last year. After that, i worked out for a few months straight in gyms doing cardio and having a better diet and my weight dropped to around 245 lbs (almost getting to my goal of being back to my playing weight at 230lbs) before i found a new girl and got lazy again. The last 4 months have been filled with more beer and more food and less exercise meaning my weight has definitely jumped up (cant tell you exactly how much because i dont have a scale, but im probably about 275 lbs right now).
Which brings us to today. I was given the complete P-90X from a family member who didnt use it at all and besides the fact that ive continuously made fun of it everytime its infomercial has come on the screen, ive decided to see what its all about and if it can work and give the results it advertises if used as suggested. My room mate and elite physical trainer (RIU name: Watuptho) will do it with me and will document my daily progress over the next 90 days (starting Monday).
The regimine will consist of a daily P-90X workout, an hour of cardio, and a better diet (calorie control and a diet consisting of healthier foods including more salads, chicken, tuna etc.)
I'll post daily shots of myself topless (i apologize in advance, but its the only way to track progress from day to day and will give a great view into what can actually be accomplished if one does decide to invest in a TV workout DVD set and invest in completing it as suggested) from front and side angles as well as give incite to the workouts and what i felt from them.
This thread definitely isnt for everyone (and definitely not for the target demographic of RIU) but for those lazy, out of shape stoners like me who are interested in diving deeper into the bullshit of what you see on TV, as well as possibly bettering oneself, this will definitely be interesting.
Feel free to ask questions, suggestions, comments, hate, love, whatever. This will be meticulously updated daily (which anyone following my grow journal would know) and should be fun.
Talk it over for the next day, Monday we get going.
