90x Week 8 recap; last day of rest

This week started rocky due to a plague I contracted from who knows where! I started taking antibiotics for a sinus infection, which is one of the many things my body is using in it’s mutiny attempt.  Only thing worse than being sick is that I gave this awful mess to my wife and my three month old son.

I took a few days off to rest and get better.  I resumed training Saturday morning by working a little Muay Thai with my MIA team.  I’m getting excited to fight.  Due to the sickness I lost a few extra pounds this week.  I’m sitting below 170lbs.  I could realistically go all the way down to 155, but it would have to be a one time deal, 170 is my natural weight.

I’m in need of some additional conditioning training.  I’m thinking about going to the local high school and running bleachers, or possibly just doing some interval running on the parkway near my house.  The bleachers sound fun and exciting but painful, so I haven’t decided yet.

P90x training resumes Monday as well.  I’m really need to step it up this week.  I’m starting back on the first set of dvd’s.  I really liked them and I love the whole muscle confusion concept.  It keeps me going each week.

I’m still continuing the fat shredder diet because I enjoy the meal options and I don’t miss the carbs.  I feel I still have a little fat to lose around the middle and I know I can get rid of it with the fat shredder diet.
