Offical – Day 1 of 90 Day Challenge – P90x

Well we all talk about a “New Year a New You”. 

While my wife and I sat at our relatives houses over the Holidays enjoying enormous amounts of great food, we talked about how do we burn that off after the holidays???

I honestly enjoy working out but I have issues with a home based workout. 

  1.  If you lack motivation, chances are you will fail. 
  2.  If you have numerous things going on : kids, spouse, job/career. business, rental property etc chances are you will fail. 
  3. If you don’t put your health as a priority in your life, eventually you will fail.  (unfortunately  :  (
  4. If your dog “ate the workout”, chances are you will fail.

So how do you succeed? 

1.  In anything, you need to find a partner – If you are struggling with something in most cases you turn for assistance and guidance.  In the workout realm, I have found that this is crucial to your success.

2.  Look at main stream TV – take The Biggest Loser for example – Our country continues to skyrocket with health issues, vast obesity rates, lack of energy and motivation and it all starts with exercise and treating your body correctly.

 I am NOT an expert on the subject but I do know you do need two things: 

A Desire for a better life and a Partner/ Coach to help you along the way. 

A good friend of mine, Michael J Maher  a real estate broker in Kansas City has put together a 90 Day Challenge for everyone to find accountability with others working out in this new year, 2010.

The plan is to workout at least 30 minutes everyday.  My wife and I choose the p90x workout for it’s intensity and we have already achieved results but honestly, whatever works.  Whether you are a biker, skiier, runner, walker or weight lifter, you desire to track your results and gain motivation but seeing and hearing from others that are doing this along the way. 

Check the group on Facebook at :  90 Day Challenge.

If you want to be accountable with yourself  I recommend starting a journal or blogging (much like you see here) about your workouts.  See what will happen 90 days later!

Best,

Dave Hageman
