I've been hitting the treadmill consistently and running on it too! I'm keeping it at a mile which has been the right move! Instead of getting bored running a long time I'm challenging myself on speed! I'm getting faster but still at about the 9:30/mile mark! The big difference is, it's easier! My weight hasnt moved but then again my eating hasnt been the best either!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm still trying to make it through the motivation gaps! Thats probably the toughest part! I actually enjoy working out and the feeling afterwards!

Its crazy because the end result, looking and feeling better should be all the motivation that's needed! But its so easy to forget what that feels like! Its so easy to forget about the benefits of the hard work!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welp, I'm still in the game! Just had my tuna sandwich with spicy brown mustard (tuna/bread/mustard) and I'm pumped that I was just able to run 2 miles in 20mins on the treadmill!

Also I was getting disappointed with the fact that my weight went up... now that I think about it went up when I started the creatine (water-weight) so that makes me feel a lot better! Once I finish off my bottles of creatine I'll cycle off of it and see if the water weight comes off!

I've come to the conclusion that I get much better results if I work out earlier in the day!  So that will be my goal on the weight training days! Also I bought a new scale! Which means my weight was different than what I had weighed previously! But I'll stick with this scale for a while for accuracy! I'll also start posting up its calculations (it estimates body fat and hydration levels)!  So if you check out my workout sheet (link on the side) you'll see that for chest - back that my numbers suck!! ah well!

Today was my first (and hopefully last) skip day! Ouch! I was supposed to do Plyometrics, but I didnt get home until 9:30pm! Which is fine I still could have done it BUT my calorie intake on the day was sooooo low (less than 1000) so I had to fix up something to eat to get some good calories in!!  Its strange because I ate pretty much all day and still was nowhere near my min cal intake for the day!  I have to stay on top of that!!  I definitely dont starve myself but its so easy just not to get enough calories! Haha I thought I'd never have that problem!  Anyway, Shoulders and Arms next!  I'll post up pics after the workout!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4930565283887396793-1281042077453775463?l=surgence.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://surgence.blogspot.com/feeds/1281042077453775463/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4930565283887396793&amp;postID=1281042077453775463' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4930565283887396793/posts/default/1281042077453775463'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4930565283887396793/posts/default/1281042077453775463'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://surgence.blogspot.com/2007/07/p90x-day-9.html' title='P90X - Day 9'/><author><name>surgence</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00839569022986964342</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://media.calorie-count.com/userpics/full/userpic_473700_73836f21975d757e5fc4891439328471.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930565283887396793.post-9083734734565968016</id><published>2007-07-16T10:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-16T11:00:10.633-07:00</updated><title type='text'>P90X - Day 8</title><content type='html'>And so it starts all over again!

I thought for sure that I wouldn't make it through the legs, due to the fact I could still barley walk from Plyo on Tuesday!! But I pushed through it and it felt great!! I can already notice improvements when I do the Ab Ripper X! Which is a BIG Plus!!  Since I played soccer for so long I think my legs are used to this kind of stuff, they just have to get re-acquainted with it!  Anyway I'm to conceded to wait till Sunday to post pics so here's some more! Not much of a change that you can see (of course I just ate lunch when I took this)! But I feel so much better!

Man the first 1 hour is tough! I was sweating like crazy but it felt good! Then the last 30 mins or so is beautiful stretching!! The whole thing just made me feel great afterwards! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can notice a lot of changes just 4 days into it! Maybe its my mind playing tricks but I feel like my stomach is shrinking and I'm getting better defined!  These last few days are going to be hard! Not because of the exercises but because I wont be home for the weekend! So I have to find alternatives to the pull-ups and weights (Time to buy resistance bands)!  I'll post up pics on Sunday (7th day)!
