The 'Sore' Sets In


So here we are Day 3. This is what I can report so far.

I feel:

1. Sore. Very very sore.
2. Clear Headed. I feel less groggy, less muddled.
3. Excited. It feels great to have something to look forward to.
4. SORE. VERY VERY SORE

The plan was to do Legs this evening, but I think we are pretty sore. Our official first full start week is next Monday. We didn't want to hold off and delay starting so we decided to do the ones we wanted to this week, and then start their suggestion for daily workouts Monday morning. Tonight is Yoga X. I have read this is an extreme version of Yoga. I think the stretching will do us good. Tomorrow evening, I think we will do legs and back, and then stretch on Sunday.

I have found a good online community on Facebook that has several people just starting the P90X program. That's exciting. I hope to pick up some online friends along the way here that can help in keeping our motivation up.

This blog is titled 90 Days to Victory...but that's just a first step. The "Victory" as I see it is the re introduction to fitness, lifestyle change and body change. But to get where we want to be physically and in life, we have a ways to go and then it's forever.

I think this is such a motivational time for me since I anticipate having my brand new camera equipment here in a few weeks and a class I am taking online as well for photography. I think I will also blog about my journey into the world of photography and cross reference a bit.

Renewal feels good.

Last night I had a mini meltdown. I wonder if part of it is releasing stress that you hold in your body and just getting it all out. I hope so.

I believe humanity, and especially Americans tend to bottle things inside and/or hold on to things. This no doubt effects our minds, but what else? Energy courses throughout our bodies and when there is pain and blockage, it can cause disease and stress. I hope that the purging of toxins physically and the releasing of stress mentally will help both Dan and I to come to a better place as people.

So much to ponder.

Yoga X will come a little late this evening, schedules getting in the way again. I could use the stretch for sure!
