So, I’ve been touched by Tony’s words in Chest & Back. I think someone is already toweling off during the warm-ups and he says the following:

74. The warm-up’s going to kill you. That’s a beautiful thing!

Don’t you love it! I want to rush through the warm-ups so I can get to the “real” exercise. I love being a part of an exercise regimine where the warm-ups may kill you!

I understand a bunch of coaches — including mine (Anne Dovel) — are on a cruise! Hope they are enjoying themselves but also learning some great stuff they can pass on to us.

Hope you have a great weekend. Do you have a Tonyism to add?

Blessings,

Dave

So we only have 32 more Tonyisms to get to 101! Who will be next, or who would like to write a post about your favorite Tonyism?

Just ordered Body Gospel today. We have a 36 year old daughter with Down Syndrome. She’s going to do it with me. Can’t thank Beachbody enough for helping us Baldwin’s be fit.

Blessings,

Dave

In today’s post I am announcing a new picture on the header of the blog. It’s two great guys Mark & Deryl. Both are Beachbody coaches and awesome guys! I try to rotate pictures on the header every six months or so. If you want me to include yours next time around send me one with you and Tony!

You can follow both of these guys on the web:

• @briggsfitness (twitter)

• http://www.facebook.com/derylw
  

They look like twins don’t they? Well almost! Both gave me permission to use the picture!

So do you have any Tonyisms of pictures you’d like to share?

Blessings,

Dave

68. At the end of ARX Tony say tip of the day ” Don’t do this everyday, you don’t work other parts or your body everyday…”

I’m still recovering from surgery. I see the doctor on Tuesday and I hope he tells me I can start doing P90X again.  So during my recovery, please send me some more of your favorite Tonyisms.

Hope all is well with you.

Blessings,

Dave

I am copying some of the Tonyisms from the P90X Facebook page that was posted two weeks ago. Hope you see some of yours here!

63. I like straight lines… you should see my closet at home. (Coleen)

64. That’s a short uncle (Keith)

65. Make it sexy people (Scott)

66. During “One on One with Tony Horton” he’s goofin around and then looks right into the camera and says, “I am not normal” (Dan)

67. “Steering wheels don’t move unless you got some kind of clown car.” (David)

I’ll post some more later this week. Hope all is going well with you all.

Blessings,

Dave

Hope you are all doing well with P90X and Ten Minute Trainer! Our sixty-second Tonyism comes from a P90X bootcamp. Thank you Todd.

62.Went to one of Tony’s P90X bootcamps…my saying from the weekend….”Do something that scares, but doesn’t kill you!”

Now Stephen had a comment about a Tonyism at the end of ARX. It’s one we already have on the list, but I like the way he puts it so I’m including it here.

At the end of ARX Tony say tip of the day ” Don’t do this everyday, you don’t work other parts or your body everyday…” But Tony I just did Yoga X yesterday (Thursday) and did Yoga Belly 7, no its Friday and I got legs and back and ARX!!! Thanks Tony

Hope you all have a great weekend. Personally I’ve been side-lined by surgery. The doctor said I needed to take a break from surgery during my recovery. Need to say that how things are going now are a miracle. Where I am now is where people are two months after surgery. Now I know that this is an answer to prayer and God’s healing touch in my life, but also because of the great shape I’m in having been a faithful P90X’er.

Blessings,

Dave
