Day 12 P90x, Pushups workout 2, bike ride, and Won the Biggest Loser at Work!

Posted by swljuggernaut on July 16, 2010

Hows that for a title?

In all actuality it sums up my day pretty good and this will be a short blog post cause I am pooped! lol

I won 300 bucks in the work Biggest Loser Challenge and I spent some of my bounty by investing in some free weight dumbells and a couple sturdier resistance bands.  I am ready to kick some butt now in my workouts!

Tonight was Back and Legs.  I am really focusing with the bands on form to get the most I can out of the resistance bands pulldowns, but I may start doing some assisted chins soon to get started working on the pullups.  After Back and legs i did ARX (Ab Ripper X) and nearly collapsed in a heap in the shower when I was done..lol

Before my workout tonight i did 10 quick km on my mountain bike.  I was cruising along thinking I was going pretty quick when a teenager wizzed past me as if I were standing still.  I mean, he was going so fast after about 15 sec I didn’t even see him ahead on the path anymore.  Sucks getting old, lol

Tomorrow I have the weigh in and meeting at weight watchers.  I hope I am down but I did have a few smallindiscretions this week eating wise so we will see. I have been working hard exercise wise and thats all I can do.  Eat well, exercise hard and maintain a positive attitude.  Will be back after the weigh in with some progress pics.
