Oh legs and back… how I hate you. But it’s over for the week and it’s Friday. Yippie!!!! So my legs are getting bigger and my waist is getting smaller. I can tell by the way my jeans fit. I’m actually going to have to go get new jeans because my thighs are getting close to busting out of them. The good thing is they are loose at the waist.
I just read a facebook post from P90X talking about “why I don’t have abs yet”, and It wasn’t really new, but it was a little interesting. Here’s what it said:
“P90X ® You very well may already have a washboard stomach, but that last bit of chub is covering it. Unfortunately, you can't spot burn fat. We all have our problem areas—the last places fat wants to leave. Typically, for guys, it's the gut, and for the ladies, it's the hips.So basically, all you can do is keep at it. Eat right and work hard, and eventually, you'll get those abs. Keep in mind that your body will be super resistant to lose the last of its emergency fuel supply, so you're going to have to work with a pretty small calorie deficit, or you might go into starvation mode”
So, my problem is definitely the diet (and I’m pretty good, but I cheat). It’s interesting to me though because event when I cheat, I’m running a calorie deficit. It’s just not good food. Now, I’m really close to everything showing but it’s that pesky bit of fat on my stomach. I’m not all that worried about it because I see it going away more and more. I am choosing to eliminate my fat by running. I will personally go crazy if I don’t get to cheat every once in a while. My wife isn’t doing this program but is very healthy when it comes to food. However, when she wants burger, pizza, or cheese dip I don’t want to say “no.” I’m just going to run it off. All in moderation.
Nothing new on the workout… it sucked like it always does. My abs were really tired. I struggled through the ab ripper today, but I’m feeling very strong and sore.
