Remember Insanity? Yeah, we do too.
Today’s weather is beyond perfect and that’s great for me because I’m shooting a wedding this afternoon and it’s an outdoor wedding! It’s a risk to plan an outdoor wedding in Nashville, especially in the fall when you plan on cooler weather but the heat index remains in the 90s. But today…today I’m happily drinking […]

Quick Trip to Monteagle
Over the weekend Javier and I drove to Monteagle with the doggos to do some hiking on the Fiery Gizzard trail. The idea was to break in our hiking boots before our Colorado trip and to try out some new hiking trails in TN. We’ve already hiked most of the greenways and trails around Nashville, […]

Insanity: the first days
Well folks, we’re now 4 days into Insanity and it’s been an experience already! When we started P90X we decided to do the program by the book to determine whether or not the program really worked and to get the maximum results. With Insanity, we are more interested in starting a new workout for change […]

We finished P90X!
Well, we finished P90X! It’s a little anti-climactic on the blog, since we aren’t posting before / after pics to prove that we had results. But really, and this is the third time (I think) that I’ve mentioned this in a post, we would not have gone the whole 90 days if we weren’t seeing […]

P90X Phase II complete!
We have been “bringing it!” for a while now! After many weeks of pushups, pulls ups, lunges, and crunches, we are finally starting the last phase of P90X. Our first month was a learning (…painful learning) experience. My goal with the program is to gain a few pounds. I want lean muscle weight, not just […]

P90X Phase I complete!
Since posting this we also completed P90X Phase II as well! Check it out! Lately we’ve been super busy with school, work, working out and house stuff (nothing exciting – just cleaning, yard work, a couple of small repairs)…which is why our posts are fewer and farther between on the blog. We have had a […]

Congratulations Camala!
Happy Saturday all! Javi and I wanted to dedicate a quick post to my cousin Andrew’s girlfriend and our friend Camala Rodriguez who took second place last night at the Arnold Classic Fitness International competition last night! Javi and I got our first glimpse into fitness and bodybuilding competitions last night when we watched a […]

5 things I’ve learned after a week of P90X – Javier’s list
Okay, so yesterday Leslie posted her list of 5 things she’s learned since starting P90Xand the diet that goes with it. Just because we are doing the same diet doesn’t mean the experience is the same for both of us. She’s interested in losing weight, I’m interested in gaining. That makes the diet and exercise […]

5 things I’ve learned after a week of P90X – Leslie’s list
We are now 8 days into our P90X adventure and 11 days into our new diet! We’ve already learned many, many lessons about what works best for us, and we thought we’d each post a list of 5 things we’ve learned so far. Most of these aren’t meant to be bits of advice or even […]

Los Rodriguez health kick!
Today Javi and I are starting a new diet that goes along with our 90 day adventure with P90X. Javi and I spent the whole weekend scheming about our new daily menus – it might as well have been our first ever trip to Trader Joes because we didn’t buy many of our usual foods. […]
