P90X

Yikes! I'm 8 weeks into a new career. A starry-eyed graduate out to conquer the world. I'm really trying to stay balanced.... My bike commuting has dropped off a bit due to some weird hours (I am in manufacturing supporting 3 work shifts) but I'm still getting out a couple times a week.

P90X is all the rage here and I got sucked in. I'm borrowing my manager's copy (pathetic, right?) until I muster the resolve to open my wallet. But it looks legit and I have friends that have gotten great results. After two days, I think the biggest benefit is that I've had Tony (the P90X trainer) sit on my shoulder when I'm trying to justify having another Mountain Dew or skipping the workout. The motto 'just push play' really is powerful... going on autopilot is a beautiful thing.

I've squeezed in the workouts after putting the kids to bed around 9:00pm. Seems to be working out.
