Let the journey begin!!!!

The online journey has begun. I woke up at 4:45am to go to the gym. Now you are asking yourself, hey I thought P90X was a video set. It is but I do not have a place to do pullups at the house. The gym has an assisted pull up machine. This will work well for me seeing that I can only do 3 pull ups so far. The machine allows me to do more and build the strength. I completed the first workout, Chest and Back, it was tough and I almost didn't finish the last three exercises. I powered through it though and fell better for it. The whole workout consists of push and pull exercises (push ups, pull ups, some weights, but mostly body weight exercises) there are 12 in all and you go through the list twice. The second time you do all exercises to failure. I felt like this was a cardio workout too. I was breathing hard all throughout the hour long workout. I am looking forward to tomorrow. I think? Tomorrow is plyometrics (jump aerobic training) they call this the mother of all P90X workouts. I have yet to make it through it all. Well we all have to start somewhere.
