Day 1 of P90X

It's day 1 of the P90X workouts.  Completed Chest & Back, and Ab Ripper.  Now these workouts are obviously for someone who is already in good shape.  Which I'm not in terrible shape, but I'm not in good shape.   I had to do the bands vs the bar, and because I have no upper body strength my push ups consisted of being on my knees with my legs lifted and bent.  Hopefully in the next 3 weeks I'll be able to do the push-ups the traditional way.  I'm starting these workouts weighing in at 198lbs.  My goal weight is 160.  These workouts are a bit of an experiment for me.  I can't follow the diet to the exacts, and can do variations of many of the routines.  I'm going to stick with it for 30 days.  2 years ago I weighed in at 269.  Down 71lbs to date.  Will post weekly measurements, and weight.
