You know your getting tired when you convince yourself that Tony Horton is funny. During the workout, Horton makes a "at least your not doing 100 of these" joke and I started laughing so hard that I had to take a break from the work out. Then I realized that Tony's the least funny person I've ever met in my life, and I was desperately looking for any excuse to take a break, any excuse whatsoever.
P90x is a solid work out. What makes me laugh is this idea that push-ups and pull-ups is the newest fitness fad. We've absolutely come full circle when doing a lot of push-ups combined with a lot of pull-ups is considered innovative. I'm complaining because my arms hurts, and I want to take a nap.
My goal is to pause the DVD less next time.
Am I perverted because I couldn't stop gawking at the flat girl's nipples?

I like Tony. There's something about his exuberantly embracing being his goofy self without any apologies (and his ability to do about 30 more pull ups/100 more pushups in a minute than I can, despite his being 52) that I admire.
ReplyDeleteAnd no, Dan, the female fitness models in these workouts are a constant source of motivation for me. Helps me press play as much as anything else.
Also! On a positive note, the fact that Tony uses such basics as a variety of pull ups/push ups is a good thing because we know this stuff works. What's innovative about the P90X workout is not the contents of each individual workout, but how they're strung together.
Or something.
Either way, it's 2.30pm and I'm still feeling exhausted and wanting my bed.
That guy's 52. That's sick! Talk about a silver fox!
ReplyDeleteActually, now that I think about it, P90X was released in 2004. Which means he was 46 at the time. However, when I saw him in L.A.? The guy looked just as jacked. He's going to be another Lalane, pulling ships across harbors when he's in his 80's.
