Bring it! And today I really mean it. Not sarcastically, not with crossed birds instead of arms, but really, truly, gag-me-with-a-spoon-from-the-eighties-enthusiasm. Bring. It.
Because I'm pretty sure I caught a glimpse of ab in the mirror when I was getting dressed this morning. And while I still have plenty of fat covering almost all my "muscle," that fat is definitely thinner, the thighs are less cheesy, and I'm getting some definition again. Just, what, like three weeks into Bringin It? So, clearly, actually working out and eating less DOES work (which I knew, of course, I just wasn't motivatin' to do it). So I have to thank Ena for motivating with me -- there is just no way I would be doing this if it was up to me, myself and I. Work out, or lay on the couch? Tough call? Nope, couch always wins. Couch = about 6,000 and workout maybe 60 over the last 20 years. So thank you Ena for helping me Bring It. And kudos to the P90X program, which has actually been excellent for workin' out. How refreshing to find a product that is well done and gives you value for your money. If Ena will keep workin' out with me, I will never buy another plastic-whatever that becomes a dusty clothes rack or plant stand to be Craigslisted a year after purchase. Once we found out how to make Tony-baloney ZIP IT and play music instead, it's quite pleasant and really does the job. Yesterday Ena and I Brought It to our shoulders, chests, and triceps, plus ripped our abs with Ab terror X. We must have done like 5,000 push ups -- my arms were shaking as soon as we got started. And Ena and I decided that the workouts seem like they're getting harder and we can't figure out why -- we thought the first few seemed pretty easy, and now we long for the days of Heavy Pants. They've got like 11 DVDs in there, so maybe the later ones ARE tougher. And I can feel it. I can feel every one of these Bring It sessions. But if you aren't feelin' it, it's not working, so that's good. In fact, I felt so good about my possible ab sighting this morning, that I ran in and checked my weight on the New Digital.
Drumroll, please...............................112.6! WITH abs!
Seriously. I might have to stop mocking the whole Bring It deal.
But the mocking is part of the fun! I know what you mean, though, girlfriend. My arms are feeling pretty ripped and toned and I'm thinking I'm just a couple of Super Banana Mans away from my own elusive ab-spotting. Totally. BRING IT!
