Week 9 p90x Lean -Emerging Abs & Hipbones! Baggy Clothes to boot.

Yesterday was day 57/90 for me. This is the furthest I've ever made it in my p90x program. I've been light on the workouts during phase 2, but continuing with the nutrition I've continued to lose weight and bodyfat. 

Due to travel last week I didn't train as intensely as I wanted to, but did swim daily and ran once.   My calorie burn was definately down, and fearful of gaining back my total calories were probably pretty low...maybe 1200-1500?

Today I jumped back into Chest & Back for phase 3 and I was crushed. Bonked hard...most likely due to lack of stored glycogen from not eating a lot of excess calories.   I did my best and forget the rest and then ate an amazing meal that I'll post here soon.

Here's a picture I took this morning...this is the leanest I've been in several years. 

Today's weight 144.4 Waist 29" Hips 39" Body fat %age 29%!


The reason I took this photo today is because I'm finally seeing my hip bones emerging with some definition in my abdominal area.   You can even see my ribs in this picture!  p90x Lean works to cut body fat...but only if you follow the nutrition plan!



I like this photo a lot...you can see a small belly there, but the pants I'm wearing were too tight just 6 months ago and now they are actually baggy!  This shirt was a gift from one of my Ironman Athletes after he completed Ironman Arizona...and it's always been snug.  Today it feels great, and you can even see it's big on me in some areas.

I'm so pleased with how things are going so far...very proud of myself.     If I can do it, you can do it too.
