Christmas Eve in Miraflores, Peru, seems like as good a time and place to come clean as any. Many people use blogs, Facebook, and other online journals to make virtual confessions. At this moment, I see the allure of the passive element of doing so electronically, and thus avoiding face-to-face embarrassment and shame. I think I'll join the fray.
Ten weeks ago I began, in earnest, the P90X program with Tony Horton. I've worked hard and diligently followed the workout exercise program (not the meal plan). In the seventh week I sustained an injury to my right shoulder. Luckily week eight of the program provides a slight break. It helped. Feeling a slight recovery, I ambitiously increased weights and intensity, which led me back here to injury town.
As I packed for our trip to Peru I decided to break stride with the 90 day program. While away I am giving the shoulder a break by running and using Power 90, a less intense version of the program. My confession is this, I went off script. Oh, the shame!
Exercise with honesty and integrity.
