90 Day Transformations

Time Flies..

It's already time for Dan's 90 Day Check-in.  Tomorrow we will get to see his incredible transformation from out-of-shape to strong-and-healthy.  I got a chance to see Dan about a week ago and I can tell you he looks fantastic. 

He and his wife are house hunting so everybody wish them luck!

Upcoming Updates

This month:

• Shannon's 60 Day check in is TODAY!  He will be taking his photos this evening after work so stay tuned!
• Dan will complete Power 90 on August 18th.  I know Dan is pretty pleased with his results so far and with two weeks left in the program, he'll be seeing even more improvements than he thinks.  That was Jimmy's experience.  That was my experience.  I will post before and after photographs so we can see the full transformation from flabby manboobs to ripped sickness.
• I (Mat) will complete Phase 1 of P90X the day before, August 17th.  We'll see what 4 weeks of bringing it can do...

Upcoming Update

Just a reminder:  Mathew's Power 90 Finale is coming up this Saturday, the 12th.  Just four short days until I am done with this program.  I plan on taking a week off from intense workouts and supplements and will probably do 3 or 4 light runs (I used to run A LOT so I rather miss it).

Then it's on to P90X...  This blog will continue on as before, no matter what program we're doing. 

Meanwhile, Dan's 60 Day Check-in is coming up on the 17th.  We have been out on the road working different events all summer so I haven't actually seen Dan in person since before he started P90, back when I was just getting started with the program (it seems like such a long time ago!).  I am looking forward to seeing what he's accomplished in the past two months, especially since his stated goal is to "beat" me at P90.  Yeah, we'll see, punk (we should have the push up competition poolside at the Villa Rolandi and change it from the loser eating Snickers to the loser chugging those delicious Bloody Mary's - or maybe the winner gets the Bloody Mary's.  Or maybe we'll just have to tie and then drink Bloody Mary's.  What was that bartender's name again??).

To everybody else, keep it up!  I know there are a few of you who have just started and I hope that the success and progress of the people who are nearing completion will inspire you to keep at it, not skip workouts, and keep eating according to the plan.  It really does work. 

Life is short - go get it!

Upcoming Milestones

Looking forward:

1. Shannon's 30 Day check-in is July 1st
2. Mat's 90 Day check-in is July 12th
3. Dan's 60 Day check-in is July 17th

New Challenge!

Since I know most of you love a challenge and so many of you took my previous challenge to get in shape with P90 (I think every single one of my friends except maybe one is doing it - I won't name names PETE), here's my new challenge:

First Annual Matty Patty Pushup Competition
November 25th, 2008
1st Place $100
Venue TBA

October 21st, incidentally, is my projected completion day of P90X so that should give most everybody else enough time to get most of the way through P90X if they are so inclined. 

I pledge a 100 dollar bill to the person who can beat me doing max push ups.  I get the feeling that only Dan will take me up on this challenge. 

If you are interested, respond in the comments with your name and smack-talk, as appropriate.

Upcoming Milestones

We have a few important 30 Day milestones coming up:

• Dan's 30 Day check-in is June 17th
• Shannon's 30 Day check-in is July 1st.

I can't wait to see how far they will have come!

My 60 Day check-in is this coming up Wednesday, June 11th.  This is a big day for me not only because the difference between myself now and myself on Day 1 is pretty dramatic but also because I will be on the home stretch - 30 more days left to go!

Anybody looking for some pre-loved size 36 jeans and extra-large shirts?
