Yoga X for the first time in over a month. Whew! Yesterday I ran intervals since it was a beautiful day outside. I think I will do that when I feel inspired to go for a run. I figure my results will be better if I feel like doing a particular exercise than simply doing what is next in the routine.
Have a great day everyone!

Phil90X is back! Round 3, Day 1
Hi everyone,
Phil90X is back! After falling off the wagon about halfway through round 2, I started up again with Core Syn and it felt really good; harder than I remembered, but good! I have had some life changes in the past couple of months which led to stress and some sleepless nights, but things are getting better all the time!
I recently got a new job, which is a pretty big deal for me, since I have been at the same company for 23 years and have been running the family firm for 6 years. However, I have been unhappy with my job for some time now and I finally made the leap to apply for a government job doing the same kind of work but with a lot less stress. Anyone who is self-employed can relate with that kind of stress. I got the job as Senior Appraisal Analyst. I start on August 24, I am so excited!
Also, some family issues with one of our kids and his behaviour (our middle child - he is the limit tester) have added to the mix, but I think we have turned the corner on that too.
It was an invitation from Cindy Ward to work out on Friday that prompted me to jump back into P90X-land. I haven't been totally inactive for the past month: I have been running intervals and tried a couple other exercise dvd's (which are similar to P90X but not nearly as intense or satisfying).
Thanks to Cindy for the reminder of how great P90X is and how much it has already changed my life for the better. People I haven't seen since Christmas have commented on my weight loss and I feel so, so much better. Now that I am back on track, I feel great! I will come back to blog too, I find that keeps me motivated too.
Have a great day everyone and KPP!
