Setbacks -1; Days Completed - 6

This weekend's setback was the perfect example of what motivated me to strive for my goal (the full completion of P90x). After completing the fit test, and the first 3 days of the program, I embarked on a weekend trip with friends to Lake Arrowhead for a good friend's birthday. While I brought my literature with me to attempt to complete at least some of the program over the weekend and attempt to keep on track, the 20 people on the trip and the activities associated did not exactly help me stay the course.

The weekend was not a sedentary one. It involved: pushing cars after chains snapped in the snow; Applying chains on tires; building a massive snow fort; making a game table out of snow; snow football; great amounts of shoveling; sledding; and snowboarding. However, along with these activities and the festivities of the birthday, came a lack of time for P90x.

It is impromptu weekend's like this that lead me to attempt to find a better plan of action. Since returning from Lake Arrowhead/Big Bear, I have completed the first 6 day cycle, and plan to restart from day 1 on Thursday. I will have to think up a plan to work in such deviations from such a vigorous program. As of now, my goal would be to rework the cycle so that I could incorporate the off day into the weekend, if necessary, as well as perhaps do part just before I embark, and the next day's workout right when I return. Details to follow hopefully in the next few days (and certainly before the next weekend trip).
