DH is on his second round of P90X. Let me set the scene for you. He's almost 45 (tomorrow) and has done nothing more strenuous than yard work or wood working for the past 15 years. He could get away with weight wise until 10 years ago when he turned 35 and his metabolism shut down. (HA! I've fought (and still am) my weight everyday since 6th grade)
When Dh 1st started I told him (and meant it) that he had to make sure I was home before he did it - so someone would be around to call 911, just in case.
It took him 6 weeks of the 12 before he could all the routines (except yoga - still falls over during that one) He dropped a pants size and had to
buy new belts. He traded his beer keg for a 2 pack. He also has tendonitis BAD in one elbow from the weight lifting part.
His dedication has helped push me back on the treadmill and I'm now searching craigslist daily for a recumbent exercise bike. My back severely limits what exercises I can do right now (it's getting better bit by bit and I won't risk screwing it up)
So Enid - YOU GO! Do what you can do. Each week you'll be farther along.
a really BIG dog
