Day 1 - Almost

Funny how FT's opening entry seems to start us off on level ground for the endeavor. Myself a former marine and him being "currently employed as a self-defense instructor". Notice no mention of the fact that my PT has consisted almost solely of beer-curls since I left the Corps in '92. Or the omission of other adjectives that could describe his current state of employ such as "award-winning".

Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking to make excuses or start hedging my bets with regards to success. Just want to make sure that it's clear that while FT needs all the help he can possibly get (and then some) I additionally have to overcome an 11 year age deficit and my existing Huttesque physique. So if we come out of this with the same overall results, I'm really going to make fun of him (c'mon, it's what big brothers do).

One other item requires clarification. FT states that we're looking to become "good-looking, hardbody geeks". While I believe P90X will help bring about the hardbody I have no delusions of grandeur. Good-looking is going to have to be Photoshopped.
