The Beginning of my P90X Ultimate Journey

This week has been the start of my P90X Ultimate Journey.  Many are thinking, what is an Ultimate Journey?  That is what I have called my journey through P90X, P90X+, and finish with P90X2. 

I wish I could say that it has gotten easier, but it hasn't.  Especially when I had to take five to six weeks off from all of my normal workout routines.  I have pretty much lost all of my gains.  I was on orders for the military for 2 weeks in the field for part of that, working 16 to 20 hour days at times.  Then I went to Vegas for coach summit and ended up with food poisoning (while I did lost a lot of weight from that I don't recommend it) and then 3 weeks off for the Ultimate Reset. 

So needless to say, it feels like I am doing P90X from the beginning.  I am not going to lie, it is tough.  I am pushing through, and trying my hardest to make it through some of the workouts.  And made it through I have, every time.  I just tell myself, it is mind over matter.  My body is stronger than what my mind wants to believe.  Every time I prove that to myself.  I don't have to prove it to anyone else but me. 

The supplements I am taking on this journey are Shakeology, protein shakes, Super Suma Root (a natural testosterone booster), P90X Results and Recovery Formula, protein bars, and vitamins.  I also am on the 2400 calorie tier for the meal plan.  As of yet I haven't hit 2400 calories so I need to tweak my calories more.  I am still way below.  I will get there, it will just take time for me to tweak my diet according to the nutrition plan set out with P90X.





I will still admit. I HATE YOGA STILL!  Yoga X kicks my butt each and every time.  It sucks!  Probably because I am not flexible at all.  But sometimes you just got to "Embrace the suck."

Keep following me and I love to hear encouragement. 

EAT CLEAN AND WORKOUT DIRTY.
