Day 13: Feeling fine!

I did my second round of the always excellent P90X chest and back workout to great effect! The pacing and variety of exercises really makes for a complete workout. I was a rubber legged sweat drenched wheezing mess of a human by the end of the hour. Which makes me wonder when I will be in good enough cardiovascular shape to add the prescribed 15 minute "Ab Ripper X" workout to the end of the workout session as I am supposed to. The second time around with the Chest and Back workout was less confusing than the first and I spent much less time fiddling with weights and making sure all of the required equipment was in place. I think I should have a pretty solid setup and understanding of how to do the exercises by the end of this week. Although

I'm still 238.8lbs which is somewhat disappointing as I have been eating 100% on diet for the last two weeks and I was hoping for more than an initial 5lb loss. I'm not really counting calories this time but I have put myself on the P90X Phase 1 Level 2 eating plan which is more or less 2400 calories per day, with the understanding that I will likely not be running a calorie deficit as building muscles and increasing overall cardiovascular health is the main aim of the program.

Tonight I will likely work late and then do the P90X "Plyometrics" workout which appears to be some kind of "jump training" by the looks of things. Sounds like fun...
