Default Re: P90X Workout

Well after acquiring a sample disc, me and the wife viewed it and were pleased by the structure of how it worked. Very well made, easy to follow, up front and cautious, yet encouraging based on your skill level. Reading through testimonials it sounds like the collection of workouts and diet is a healthy approach to this. Also read that it doesn't really provide anything new, cutting edge or totally unbelievable, it just organizes the things that work into a nice package.

Needless to say after seeing some before and after photos on the web and looking at the nutrition guide which actually would be an easy transition for us considering our current diet. As well as the fact some of the recipes actually looked quite good.

We're gonna give it a go .

Her the lean, and myself the classic.

I figure my hardest class day of the week for college is Wednesday so I'm gonna make that my day 7 stretch/rest day.

Gonna gear up on some of the essential equipment and probably start a week from tomorrow. Wish us luck

That's outstanding, Jordan--great committment to make to start the year! I just completed the final Fit Test for my second round of P90x. I'll post-up the details later, but I'll just say that I'm astounded at how far I've been able to come in strength gains & lean body weight in a little over 6 months. I've probably never been as fit as I am now, and I'm 46! Can only imagine what it would be like had I started when younger. You'll be impressed by what this program helps you do!

I'd be curious to read the details.

The funny part though is I'm not really out of shape.... yet. I weigh like 175 - 180, 5' 9", 34 waist. By all standards, I'm not unhealthy.

But I can feel myself being pulled out of that adolescent metabolism stage where the stuff I eat is starting to add a couple of pounds. Men in my family get very large very quickly in their late 20's and I'd like to prevent that before it even has a chance to start. The toning wouldn't be a bad biproduct either

My wife just wants to look good in a bikini. ... I think she has ulterior motives though... ie.. wanting to go on a cruise this summer. Maybe that can be the reward when we finish.

I've got pictures posted on my beachbody.com account, but no one here would want to see my hairy, half-naked body. Jealousy & all that...

But here are my stats from before P90x, at the end of the first time through, and then at the end of this second round.



I'm very pleased

Taking a break for a little bit, but thinking about what comes next. Gotta make sure I can keep this up.
