Several people who saw my “time to move on blog” below wrote to ask me what I’m going to do next. Well, if my job doesn’t get any easier soon, I may just quietly go insane, and one day start screaming and never stop…..but I suspect that things will get better in the job front soon enough, so I do have some plans coming up for fitness activity.

First and foremost, I’m going to give P90X a complete tryout. I’m not just going to give it a bit of a shot–I’m actually going to do the full 90 days just like it is supposed to be done, and see whether it’s something that will work on a 63 year old guy. I’m in good enough condition to get started–I just need to make all the arrangements to truly do it right, and that means waiting until my current trip is over.

Looks like I’ll be kicking off on Tuesday, May 4. I’ll post updates and photos as I go along. From what I know about the program and about fitness in general, I expect great things from the exercise program of P90X and I’ll be following the nutrition program that looks much like the Body for Life or the “Zone approach” to eating.

I’m writing this from a hotel lobby in Grinnell Iowa on a stormy Saturday afternoon, on my way to Kansas to visit my mother. It’s pouring right now, so I’ll be putting off my exercise until later tonight when I get to my daughter’s house. They have a full gym and after a day of driving, I’m ready to kick it!
