I hate making excuses, but so much crap has been going on at work that I haven’t had time to get my bb.com fix in for a while.

 Updates…  I performed superbly in my coed game last week.  Playing keeper, this amazing forward and I pretty much duked it out.  It was pretty much like an AND1 competition between the two of us. He’d do some bad ass trick, i’d pull off a miraculous save. I owe it all to P90X. : D   The plyo really helps me when I play as a keeper.  And my confidence sky-rockets so I concentrate more on what I need to do in a game rather than wasting my time doubting myself.

 In any case, we won, which is the most important thing, and my perfomance got me man of the match honors, which comes with a shirt.

As far as the P90X, phase 1 goes, I’ve been pretty faithful.  Labor Day weekend was tricky because I called in sick to get a 4-day weekend (which never happens) and my friends and family wanted to do a lot of stuff that didn’t fit into the workout schedule.  Needless to say, I missed a couple of days, but  I jumped right back into the thick of things. I didn’t continue sliding backwards like I would’ve done in the past.  The only thing I regret is not doing Legs and Back last week, because I have no week 2 data now.  But there are far worse things in the world.

I’m thinking I want to get some supps for Phase 2.

I’ve finished every workout since my last post, so still doing good. Still fine-tuning my diet, but it’s gotten a lot better than what it was.

I have a coed soccer game here in a couple of hours and doubt I can get Yoga X in before so I’m thinking about squeezing in Stretch X for it.

So my goal was to show up for my men’s league games every week, stronger than I was the previous week.  Well I was a much improved player, by my standards, this past Sunday, but the team we played kicked my ass.  They could pass and move like nobody’s business, and they were quick!  I hardly got any time on the ball.  To make matters worse, I got sent off for something I didn’t even say, and if things stand as they do now, I’ll miss the next game.  Right now, that game is two weeks from now.  We have Labor Day weekend off, pick up the following Sunday (which I’d initially have to miss) and I wouldn’t be eligible until the next Sunday.  I’d be in bad ass condition if I kept working out, but that’s a long time to be away from the game.  Luckily I do have a basis for an appeal, which I will be making.
