I'm a profesional Firefighter/EMT in sunny Florida. I am married to an AWESOME gal, who just happens to be a personal trainer, for mom's, and includes the babies in her class'. Together we have 2 great kids,(Audra is 8 and Dawson is 5) who are extremely athletic and have been known to do Yoga X, Ab Ripper X, Kenpo X, Cardio X, & Core Synergistics with me on multiple occasions. In the past my favorite activities were cycling , fishing, hunting, and golfing. Since the kids came, basically all that has stopped with the exception of hunting. My passion, desire, and effort has landed me a spot on a Prostaff, filming for a nationally televised hunting show. I get to hunt and film all over the country. Now I'll be able to do it while flexing and lookin good !...lol

My Fitness Goal:

Transformation Story

Ok well her is my story....Im on day 53 of my P90x journey.....Lemme start by sayin this was my wifes idea.....shes a personal trainer for new moms and includes their babies in her class. Shes a PT as well, and has all those crazy certifacates to go along with it, that say shes spent all these continuing education hours.....

I WAS a profesional cyclist racing in Europe, Central America and North America. At 6'3" 155 and about 5% BF I WAS in great shape when we met. Fast foward 15 years and 2 kids ..... now Im a Firefighter/EMT/LO, weighing 228....and about 23 %BF

She had been trying to get me to workout with her for years and I always said, "I could drop 30-40 lbs in no time riding my bike if I want to !". But I never rode.....She saw the P90X TV commercial and bought it for me this past Christmas, saying "You need to get in shape!" Mind you, shes like 5' and maybe 100 lbs.....I told her "Round IS a shape!!" Reluctantly I listened to her and started.... Ive been eatin good and bringin it every day.

My diet has changed dramatically which pleases my "little lady", and what makes her more happy ...I quit chewing tobacco...after dippen a can of skoal a day for YEARS I quit cold turkey when I started this program, saying to myself.. " bygoly I'm gettin our moneys worth outta this !"

So between the no dipping, better eating habits, and replacing the gallon of sweat tea I drank a day with a gallon of water, things are starting to change. I know I've lost somewhere around 15 lbs and 5% BF so far. Im on day 53 today, so I got time to improve still. The coolest thing is I not only feel better and look better but I went to one of my wifes class' the other day ( a core class, for mommy's to lose that low belly sag, as she puts it) and several of the Mom's commented to her on how they wished their husbands "were in shape like hers!" and "theres NO WAY my hubby could have done this class!"...lol Little do they know....its all P90X and some hard work.

Another neat thing is now I have 2 other co-workers (I'm a Firefighter) doing it with me as well as 3 others who have ordered and started their own P90X journey.

I'm losing BF and gaining muscle but we'll see how it all pans out.... I'm actually starting to enjoy this and take it personal when Tony says "BRING IT! " or "Get your feet UP!!"

I'm bringin it ol man !(JK)
