New Muscles, Bring Em On

It's been a few weeks since my completion of the P90X program and I'm still feeling great. I had wanted to start on a new program called Insanity upon my return from vacation. Well technical difficulties have kept me from that goal, however I am not letting up. I've decided to start the P90X program over in doubles mode until I can start Insanity. I have gained all kinds of new muscles and am motivated to continue my journey. I actually enjoy looking in the mirror from time to time for the first time in many years. Even the parts of my body that are yet where I want them to be. It feels nice for a change.
I've come a long way from the overweight, out of shape person I was in the beginning of my journey. Back then I had to work up to just 30 minutes on the treadmill and just 5 minutes on the elliptical machine would leave me red faced and out of breath. Slowly the weight came off and there was less jiggle when exercising. I worked up from 3 days a week to 5. Then slowly from 30 minutes 5 times a week to 45-60 5 times a week. The muscles that were being formed under my fat were finally peaking out. Then the P90X program upped me to the next level with an average of an hour ten minutes 6 days a week with an hour of stretching on day 7. My body is on it's way to a youthful tone. I'm not giving up and ready to bring it to the next level
