Philippians 3:12-14 (The Message Bible)

I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back.

P90X/D11/R3

Day 11--Shoulders & Arms. Yum!
Started the day out with a step aerobics class and then an interval class at the gym. I HATE it that the chest strap to my heart rate monitor broke because now I don't ever know how many calories I burned. I really should look into getting a new strap!
After Matt got home from work, we sat down at the computer to log onto WOWY and started looking at the other products Beachbody has to offer. I reminded him of how I have been wanting to order P90X+ for, like, EVER and he said "get it". So I clicked "add to cart". Then we browsed through the supplements because our Recovery Drink is almost gone. We (he) decided to try the Performance Men's Formula this time instead. There is enough Recovery Drink left for me for a while if I'm the only one using it and he is really wanting to start taking something with some creatine so that he can start bulking up more.
That was when he saw the little picture/blurb about Insanity. I'd told him about it before...but you know how that goes...until men are ready to hear about something...until they are interested in it themSELVES...it just goes in one ear, circles around once, and then flies out the other ear. Anyway, he said, click on that and let's check that out. So...I did. Long story short, he talked me into deleting the P90X+ off the order for now and getting Insanity instead. His reason was "I'm sick of looking at Tony Horton." All I can think is "oh my gosh can I handle this??" AUGH!
So...in about a week or so, our Insanity journey will begin! I think we will probably still throw some weight-training in too JUST because Matt is REALLY trying to get some major muscle mass right now and neither of us is convinced that you can do that by just cardio alone and no weight-lifting. (do any of you object?)
Anyhow, after our order, we rocked out Shoulders & Arms. That is one of our favorite work outs because #1: There is no jumping #2: There are no pull ups #3: Watching yourself in the mirror is completely self-motivating!
Eating was pretty good. Not gonna list it all out for the sake of time, but I'd give us a 7 on a scale of 1-10.
