The New Era

Today I started my new workout program and I'm totally excited. Its called Power90 and its available from a company called Beachbody. Purchasing the system was tremendously annoying, as it kept offering me additional packages and add-ons. Drove me nuts. And it took two weeks to get here... which they warned me about. But its sort of strange when they sell the product as "just 90 days to a new you" and they really mean 104 days. Kind of threw off my schedule.

But enough of the bad, the system itself seems right up my ally. You switch between circuit training (weights and stuff) and sweat training (cardio, I presume). Today I started with the circuit training, and it was hard. But it felt great. One of the big problems with my previous efforts is simply not knowing what to do, or in what order. With the videos I just follow along and they take care of the rest. I don't need to go anywhere, I'm not weather dependent, its just me and my willpower.

I took "before pictures" which I won't share with you because its pretty bad. But maybe, if we're all lucky, I'll post something when I start looking a bit more healthy. Come November 1st, we'll see how things shaped up.

Hi Sean!
Just noticed that you have started Power90 about a month ago and was wondering if you have been keeping up with it? You should be past day30 if you have...

I'm a Power90 nut! I love the program! I'm currently going through it again (after a "fat relapse"

I'm about half way done it, and am loving it again!

Cheers
Rob
