Kyle Paul Johnson

I'm a mid to front end web developer, pseudo designer, fitness enthusiast and amateur photographer living in Seattle Washington. I currently work for Microsoft on a yet unreleased product that I can't tell you anything about.

I am a quiet shy type at first, but that's definitely not me underneath. I love spending time with friends and family, talking tech, snapping photos, hiking as well as backpacking and taking on new and interesting challenges. I am a transplant to Seattle originally hailing from the great plains. Iowa to be more specific.

I am pretty well connected and you can find me often on Twitter talking about all sorts of randomness, posting new DSLR snap shots on Flickr, chatting with friends and family on Facebook, and uploading or watching videos on Vimeo.

So if you have been watching my progress with the P90x program you might be wondering where I have been the past few days to a week. The answer is resting a lot. I made it though the first week minus the final workout for the week KenpoX, however I am a pretty competitive person and I felt my effort or performance wasn't up to my own standards even though Tony H. always says just do your best and forget the rest. The fact was I knew I could do better. Not in 3 weeks from now, but right now. So I decided to use the first week as a trial run through to get a vision of the workouts, fight through the soreness and then tackle them head on as I restart the program from day one. Today was day two of the restart in which I completed the entire Plyometrics routine which I had to cut short the first time around due to fatigue and getting sloppy with my moves. I am feeling stronger already and even feeling (although it might be my imagination) that I am already seeing some subtle results, which is a great thing because that just makes you want to push forward that much more no matter how bad the workouts might be. Bring it!
