Tue. Feb. 19 Workout(s)

Morning:
P90X Plyometrics

Lunch:
Walk

Once again, the Plyo X rocks the McLain house early in the 'morn, bringing tons of sweat, cat-like landings, and twisty moves to challenge the ol' balance and push my cardio response to the max. The Mary Katherine's were solid, the squatting jacks were superb, and Will got to watch the last 20 minutes or so.

"Daddy, can Tony see us?" he said after I made an off-hand remark to Mr. Spritely himself. "No Will, it's like a movie, but sometimes I pretend." ;)

That's one of the great side-effects of all of this effort. Since I kicked up everything 10 notches the first week of January, Will has closely watched my my diet changes and exercising -- he can do some pretty great push-ups and situps, and he's constantly asking us if what he's eating is on Daddy's Diet.

Just like always, he ardently refuses to eat french fries -- "they have lots of fat, and they're yukky" -- though he doesn't see having a small desert after every dinner as a big deal. ;)

All in all, it does my heart proud to know that he's taking this all in and will, I hope, remember that his Dad always tried to do his best for him/himself/and his family.
