P90X LIVE with Tony Horton

Monday, January 10th was Tony Horton's "Bring It" work out & Book signing. Absolutely AWESOME doesn't even describe the experience. To actually get to work out with the man who has lead me in the craziest of moves, made me laugh while fighting to make it through the exercise & has helped me lose 30 lbs. and drop my insulin intake per meal is beyond words. And he is just the same in real life as he is on the videos.

He has recently wrote a book titled "Bring It" which has excellent nutrition & exercise information. Still cracks the jokes and still BRINGING IT. This is a great book for a beginner just getting involved in a fitness journey or the pro athlete looking for pointers on improving. GET IT!!!!

The energy was in the air in Grapevine, TX. With over 300 coaches & guests waiting for the man who has changed their lives to run out on stage and cause them to sweat. We got to hear some amazing success stories on how Tony has helped people transform. From people who lost up to 120 lbs to 80 lbs. Everybody in the room had a story.

Met up with a couple of new friends working through their fitness journey using programs like P90X, Insanity and Power 90. Jason on the right has recently become my Coach/Business success partner as we help each other keep motivated and focused on being successful in helping others change the world and fight obesity. And make a few $$$ along the way. Dwayne (on the left) has been using Power 90, P90X & insanity to get fit and feel better about himself. Not a coach (YET). He and I plan on doing some work outs / fit club in the near future. BRING IT gentlemen! Great meeting both of you in person.
Tony runs out on stage waving a big Texas flag. I wish I had my camera out for some of the actual workout but I was too busy sweating. He led us through one big bad workout. 5 rounds of upper/lower/core workouts with 30 second breaks between each round. We did everything from downward/upward dog push ups , kenpo, banana crunches, Mary Catherine lunges and much more. Mason Twists until you couldn't do any more. This girl one lasting 3 minutes 52 seconds. WOW! (and wow upside down is.....MOM) LOL.
After the workout and 2 more bottles of water, we got to stand in line which was fine, for the book signing and PICTURES! Thanks Dwayne for taking this picture!! Look at him smile. I hope to have half of that mans energy when I am in my 50's. I was in pain at the time. Thanks Sandy for the recovery drink. I owe you one.
Tony, thank you so much for P90X, Power 90, 10 minute Trainer, P90X 1on1 and looking forward to P90X:MC2.

Week 7 Days 2&3 P90X

What's up everybody? I have to say this up front. I LOVE THIS PROGRAM!!! P90X is for real! Tuesday night I did Plyometrics, WITHOUT STOPPING!! I am totally psyched! If you have not done Plyo X, you would not understand. Here's a small example: 7 different types of squats, 6 jumps, and some high step moves with some sports bonuses and more. Oh and most of those you do 2 sets. If you are not tired and your legs burn like hell then you need to squat lower and jump higher. It definitely is getting me lighter on my feet.

Wednesday - Day 45 - the halfway point!! Back and Biceps! I freaking rocked this one last night! I increased the weights in about 80% of my lifts and increased the # of pull ups in every set. 85 pull ups in all, but had to use chair:( still getting better:) I can see a big difference in my arms! Now for Ab RipperX! I made it through this one - 349 core moves. I had to modify a couple but made it through without pausing!

Today we got our Showcase kit in, It had Power90, Hip Hop Abs, Turbo Jam, Slim in 6, P90x, Yoga Booty Ballet, resistance bands, weighted gloves (which do not fit me) little ball, Nutrition guides and recipe books and got our new bag of shakeology. I am now ready to start my workout group. I am going to work my butt off this weekend trying to find a location to do it. First session is next Thursday at my house. I can't wait! Next purchases are going to be more resistance bands so I can use them in group sessions and shakeology samples. I would also like to get the P90X whey protein shake and also recovery formula. Guys and girls, if you live in the Fort Worth / Mis Cities / Arlington area please come workout with me. It's free as of now. If I have to rent a place I might have other coaches pitch in for rent. Yes, other Beachbody Coaches are more than welcome to join in! We are a Team trying to make the world healthy! Contact me and let me know! Keep Pressing play People and Bring It when you do!!!!
