Ripped My Boxers During P90X Workout
These aren't my ripped boxers; I figured no body would want to see a picture of my boxers :-)
Yesterday was Legs & Back and something really funny happened during that P90X workout (I gave it away in the post title). My wife and I were doing the Three-Way Lunge With Two-Kick Option. As I lowered my front right leg to get into the lunge I heard a loud “RIIIIPPPPPPP.” My wife (Jen) busted out laughing. I looked down to investigate and I ended up ripping a massive hole in my boxers during the lunge. It was pretty funny! During one of the P90X DVD’s (can’t remember which one) Tony Horton jokes around about ripping his pants. I never expected I would actually rip my pants during P90X!
P90X Week 6
Week 6 of the P90X workout is finally done! As I mentioned in the P90X Week 5 post my wife and I had to push back our workouts by a day due to a crazy schedule last weekend. Today we both did Kenpo X and it felt great to finish the week off strong with lots of punches, kicks, jabs, and blocks!
Beachbody Diamond Pack
During round 1 of P90X I talked a lot about getting a set of weighted gloves to help step up the intensity of Kenpo X. Well, I finally got a pair! At the beginning of May, Beachbody introduced a new business pack called the Diamond Pack for Beachbody Coach’s to purchase to help jump start their business. It’s exclusive to brand new Coaches, but for a limited time they let existing Coaches buy it so I jumped on it. It has over $1,100 worth of fitness gear in it and Coaches get a major discount on it (it was a no brainer to get it). So when I got my Diamond Pack in the mail, I was very excited to see that there was a set of weighted gloves in it!
P90X Week 5
Sorry for the long hiatus I’ve had from posting updates on my P90X workout blog! The past few weeks have been absolutely crazy and I’m finally almost caught up on everything. I just finished my Coast Guard 2 weeks of active duty (I’m in the Coast Guard Reserves) on Friday. Also, this weekend a good buddy of mine got married. I was a Groomsmen in his wedding and it was a fun, action packed weekend. It’s nice though to finally be able to sit down and take a breath!
P90X Week 4
P90X week 4 is complete! This week was a recovery week for my wife and I. My schedule was turned upside down since I started my Coast Guard 2 weeks of active duty on Monday (I’m in the Coast Guard Reserves). Check out the video below to see how the P90X workout went this week-

P90X Week 3
P90X Plyometrics: Airborne Heisman
Week 3 of the P90X workout is done! Since I’ve already gone through one round of P90X, this round seems to be flying by! It’s hard to believe that my wife and I will be going into a Recovery Week starting on Sunday. The workouts have gone great this week and Jen (my wife) has yet again made some huge improvements! This is her first round of P90X.
P90X Week 2
My wife and I are just about finished week 2 of the P90X workout! It has been another crazy week, but things are starting to get somewhat back to normal. We ended up having to do Yoga X, Legs and Back, and Kenpo X separately due to work related events we had going on, but it all worked out. I just did those workouts about mid-afternoon, and my wife did them either first thing in the morning or late in the evening. The other days we’ve been doing the workouts in the evenings like usual.
Check out the below video I put together with me giving a recap of how P90X week 2 went with my wife and I-Continue reading
