Today is June 1st! And today starts the P90X challenge between Russ Dahlberg and myself. You may see the infomercials on late night TV for the P90X. It is supposed to get you rediculous results in 90 days. Just take a look at this guy!
The infomercial is full of shots like this. Why the P90X? I have no clue. Am I susceptible to late night infomercials? Other than the Hercules Hook, Kinoki Footpads, The Clapper, Head on (Apply Directly to the forehead), Extenze 4 Males and anything Billy Mayes sells, I scoff at infomercials. For me it is all the real people in the P90X infomercial who send in home movies that sold me on it! So on to the challenge! Check out the P90X product on the web There have to be some rules so this thing doesn’t get out of hand:
P90X Rules:
- No banned substances as stated in the WNBA Drug Policy.
- Before and After Photos must be supplied for Judging. The before photo must prove start date so as to not submit a picture form 7 years ago.
- The winner will be defined by the most dramatic change in physique after the 3 month period (50% value).
- The “after” photos will be posted on amIripped.com for a period of 2 weeks. The person who wins the most battles after that period wins (50% value).
- If the winner cannot be decided by these 2 tests, the contestants will go down to the Venice Beach boardwalk and ask people walking by who is more ripped.
Russ, do you have anything you would like to add?
Are you ready for the P90X challenge? If you would like to be a part of this gruelling competition just respond in the post. We could push the date out a bit just for more competitors. As it stands if one of us drops out (Russ), the other will be going against himself. If you want to discuss (ie talk smack) about the challenge, we will use the hashtag #P90xoff on Twitter.
Can I add a “HELLS JYEAH!!!!”? I’m ready to get ripped. Also, if we do the venice beach ripped walk, we need a video camera present, if only for sheer entertainment value.
I was thinking Video, and those scoring cards they use in Volleyball. Have 2 people walking around and each time you score they flip the numbers. It’s on..
So I have been running between 3 and 5 miles alternating days. Today I ran 3 mils in 22:32, with a 7:19 mile in there. I don’t know if it is a good or a bad thing, but I am faster now than I was in Jr. High Cross Country!
I wonder what RussDogg is doing in Portland…….
The day of reckoning is coming! The P90X before AND after photos will be posted in 2 weeks!
