In search of a solution

My answer to all of this was to go to the gym, I ran 2 days a week and would work on a bench press machine, I did crunches, and I did dumbbells for my arms. I did everything I'd learned to do the fundamentals of body building.
My healthy diet and 1 hour a day, 5 days a week workout seemed to sustain my current physique.
It seemed I would never see myself in the kind of shape I wanted, at best I would work off what nutrition I consumed to get through my day. While I wasn't getting fatter I wasn't making any significant improvements. I simply did not have the kind of time required to keep my body in a constant state of improvement.
The big question was how do I quickly get my body into good shape.
In a wide search I found my best friend Shaunn had been doing P90X to get in better shape. I didn't have that kind of money nore could I do P90X in the same house as my wife and newborn.
The constant battle of balance never seemed to end, I wanted size in my arms, chest, back and legs, yet I want to rapidly loose fat, the two rarely coincide in the same plan.
Around this time another friend of mine stumbled onto a workout in Men's Health Magazine called The Spartacus Workout. It was examining this workout that made me realize what was missing from my routine.
