I just finished my second Core Synergistics workout of my first recovery week. I really like the diversity of this workout.
Reach over and under push ups, prison cell push ups, and Dreya rolls are some of my favorite exercises in this routine.
My core feels nice and tight and I worked up a great sweat today. I am beginning to see some difference in the way my clothes fit. My shirts are a bit tighter in the shoulders and back and looser in the belly.
I feel more energetic and youthful, much younger than my years.

P90X diet example, whey protein, and beef jerky...
My p90x diet, shakeology, recovery formula, and protein
I'm really glad today was a rest day from P90X. Maybe I'll do the x-stretch video before bed tonight. My legs and back are sore today, but I did weigh in and was very happy to see another 1.5 lbs gone, bringing the two week total to 3.5 lbs.
I don't have a lot of weight to lose, but I would like to see my abs, which mysteriously disappeared this winter under a blizzard of Ben & Jerry's ice cream and pepperoni pizza. OK. It's not so mysterious after all.
I have been following the dietary guidelines as closely as possible. I log my nutrition at myfitnesspal.com, making it easy to track my calories and macro-nutrients. The P90X nutrition guide suggests a ratio of 50% protein, 30% carbohydrates, and 20% fat for the first "FAT BURNING" round.
It was not an easy task to surrender my bagels, bread, pasta, sweets, and pizza dough and replace them with vegetables, lean protein and healthy fats. So far I have been able to stay on the diet for the most part. I credit my daily dose of Shakeology with curbing my sweets cravings and making this a lot easier than past attempts.
I have done the P90X workouts in the past, but I never stuck to the diet. This time I'm trying to do the entire program as it is laid out, and am seeing results after only two weeks.
P90X really works. I am beginning to see my abs and I feel so much stronger than just two weeks ago.
My daily diet to this date looks like this:
Post workout - Beachbody results and recovery formula.
Lunch - Heart of romaine, 3 oz. sliced turkey, fat free dressing
Snack - Apple or Pear, Cliff Builder protein bar
Dinner - 6 oz. grilled chicken breast, two cups vegetables ( broccoli, green beans, peas, or spinach)
Snack - two scoops of Body Fortress advanced whey protein w/water,
Snack - 1 oz. beef jerky
Plenty of water, all day long.
The ratios aren't perfect, but it's pretty close. I'm aiming for around 1800 calories per day, give or take.
It doesn't look like a lot of food, but I feel full all day long. I workout in the morning and try to eat every two to three hours to stoke my metabolism. Having shakes for my first two meals took some getting used to, but I am becoming accustomed to feeling lighter and less bloated.

Shakeolgy, what's it all about...?
People have been asking me if there's a difference between Shakeology and regular whey protein. My answer is yes, there absolutely is and I feel that I need both.
I use whey protein because it's nearly impossible to eat enough to get the over 200 grams of protein I need to stay within my limits.
I use Shakeology to help curb hunger, quell sweets and carb cravings, and because IT'S FRICKEN DELICIOUS!
Seriously, the chocolate Shakeology I have every morning is something I really look forward to. It's soooo chocolaty and creamy.
Here are some links with more information on Shakeology, what's in it, what it does, why you need it, and how to get it.
If you aren't ready for an extreme program like P90X you might want to consider Shakeology's workout program. It would be a great place to start if you are either new or just returning to fitness.
Here are some testimonials from people who have done the Shakeology fitness plan.
I feel much more energetic and seem to be in a better mood when I drink Shakeology regularly.
