Say, what's a good place to get the DVD's? I checked craigslist but no luck there, and can't really afford to shell out the full retail price. Ebay?

I just got my package yesterday. Wife and I are starting it on Monday. We're having our last hurrah eating our unhealthy food and booze this weekend (we can't throw stuff away).

Congrats on getting started. I am on my second round and my wife is on her first. I can say that after taking 2 weeks off from the first round my legs and glutes are sore as hell from legs and back.
Just do your best and forget the rest! And just keep pushing play,,,,,, |

Is there a place I can read a good write up on P90x? I keep hearing about it, and it has me curious as to what it's all about.

Too rich for my college living blood I have done Insanity. It is different then P90X. P90X is more strength training with some cardio/plyo mixed in. Insanity is pretty much all cardio/plyo. If you get it from Team Beachbody.com its $10 cheaper. |

Day 2 was great - plyometrics... I have to wonder how such simple movements make my legs feel like jelly. I am regretting living in a two-story house.
So, since I fly, I can't take creatine (which is in the recovery mix). Thus far, I am just using chocolate milk which I hear is a sufficient substitute. |

Genuinely curious here. I've also been substituting chocolate milk, only because I'm cheap and eating healthier has already cost me enough money... |

July, August and September I stayed true to the system and did my 90 days straight. Oct,Nov. and December I did some of the light weight workout 3 days a week, and did some jogging at night. January 1, 2010 I started the program again. 4 days only This time I do the: Monday- Chest/Shoulders/Tris Tuesday- Plyo Wednesday-Back/Bi's Thursday-Kenpo February 1, 2010 Monday-Chest/Shoulders/Tris Tues- Run 1 mile, 2x- 40 push ups, 15 pull ups, 40 sit ups, 40 squats Run 1 mile Wednesday- Bi's/Back Currently I weigh 165lbs and am looking pretty ripped. I could get leaner but I would really have to shred my diet and that is the tough part. Just by working out and losing the fast food I have accomplished this. Natron |

There is a huge racket on ebay that sells bootleg p90x dvds. i think a lot of them are copied in china. i looked into this before i placed my order. i ended up ordering through beachbody.com |

Been sick (too sick to fly or work out) for the last few days, and I'm going to end up starting over, I think. That is somewhat disappointing. The diet isn't that bad, but there is a lot of food that I miss.

Chocolate milk plus a scoop of protein powder works great. Did that all thru out my 1st round and it really helped with muscle recovery, nothing like the first couple of weeks of soreness until I figured out that I needed a recovery drink.

Not really, I got an iPhone app called eatright90 that shows you how much carbs, fruits, veggies protein etc etc you should be eating based on your fitness level and stage in the plan.
It lets you put check marks in when you eat something so you get a good overall picture of how close to the plan you are eating. I need to eat more veggies.

I don't have the nutrition guide plus all that food would be way too expensive. I stick to more proteins, lean meat/fish, almonds, fruits and veggies with lots of water and less or no carbs, sweets, beer, dairy, soda, etc. I eat small meals or snacks every 2-3 hours. It seems to be working fine.

Ok I just got done with Cardio X, which is the second workout of P90X lean. I'm used to running 4 miles a day on a treadmill and then walking at a 3.8mph pace at a 10 incline for 20 minutes. I'm not used to being this dehydrated. If you're going to do this, HYDRATE until you think you've hydrated enough and then hydrate some more.

I did Kempo tonight. That was kinda fun. The muscle memory was coming back by the end of the hour from when I used to do such things.
The Yoga last night?!? WTF? I thought yoga was supposed to be calming and serene and... yeah... not so much. As for the diet... well... yeah, that's a nice thought. I'm doing the best I can, but my schedule is not really conducive to a strictly regimented diet like that. So, I am ad-libbing a bit. |

For diet, I try to keep under 1800 calories, for my body type and size. I also try to focus on getting protein over the other stuff. Kempo was fun, I did it yesterday. Yoga? Well Yoga hurt like a mother. I had to stop about 40 minutes in and then go to the cool down. My hips still haven't forgiven me. |

I'm in Recovery Phase 2 and going to Phase 3 next week.
Just keep with it. Definately seeing a lot of muscle gains. Not losing any weight, but body fat percentage has come down about 4%. Took me about 5 weeks to get through Phase 2 though. Sprained my wrist snowboarding and was sick, so it set me back a bit

I've already done 2 weeks of work outs, but it was obvious that my eating habits were out of wack when I could hardly even get out of bed the next day. I think I'm not replacing the protein and potassium and carbs in the right blends... |

Today was day one of phase 2 for me. This is my second time through the program.
I started the doubles routine this morning. I was running alot last year before P90X but I haven't run since October. So instead of Cardio X this morning I went out and ran about 2.5 miles. And I did it in my Vibram Five Fingers. I forgot how much I LOVE runnning before the sun comes up. Running barefoot is a huge change. I can tell my lower calves/upper achilles are going to be screaming at me. I was plesantly surprised at how well the run went considering how much time I have been away from running. I think if I had been in regular shoes I could have easily knocked out 5 miles. When I got home I stretched the legs out really well and knocked out Ab Ripper. Now I just have to finish Chest, Shoulders, Triceps tonight after dinner. |
