Week 1 Review

DAY 91/180
Phase 1, Week 1, Routine -
Weight Loss Stats:
Weight 269 lbs - Loss 32.6 - %Loss 10.8%

-----------------------------------------------------

I trained my butt off all week and the results show - so far this week, I've managed to lose 7.4 pounds! I also dieted very, very cleanly and trained twice-daily for most of the week. I honestly couldn't have hoped for a better week. About the only dissapointment was my failure to perform all of the P-90X workouts as scheduled, but the reasons for this include various nagging injuries or time constraints.

Overall, I would give the week a rating of 7.5/10.

I'm excited about the kind of progress I can make and am motivated to make even more gains for week #2!

Here are the "positives" from week #1:
*High enthusiasm for training
*Exceeded my weight-loss goal
*Performed 2-a-days Monday-Friday
*Morning Sandbag Complexes were very high intensity

Here are the "negatives" from week #1:
*Failed to perform all P-90X workouts as scheduled
*Did not train arms 3x/week as scheduled (extreme soreness from Sunday's Strongman workout prevented this)
*Did not train according to a set schedule or routine
*Did not track all meals
