It is hard to come back after recovery, but I just try to remember the whole 'change up' thing, where my new muscles are learning new things... and I'll be way healthier when I'm done!

And... I want to bust out of work today and run away. Gonna have to work out right away tonight, lots-o pent up energy. AAAAHHH!!

I hear you, Katie!!!! We leave for our big Florida/Cruise vacation next Thursday and I want to bust outta work so so so badly...

This morning I did the Core dvd PLUS some of an Insanity dvd. My muscles are still shaking, haha :lol:

Hey girls,

I did enjoy Plyo. I think I'll be doing that instead of Yoga.

Doing Kenpo and Cardio X tonight. Starting on my third week.

Finally got my resistance band so Legs and Back was awesome. My band has a door attachment so I work with that instead of the pull-ups.

I heart my bands... boo to pullups. Also, I don't believe I'll ever acutally have to pull myself up, and if I do, it will be a life-or-death situation, so I'll have adrenaline going for me, lol.

I need to go update my ticker!

I hope hope hope I can loose the last 20 by 1/1/11. If I don't, no sweat, but... ooo, it'd be sweeeeet!

OOooo! Seeing 220 there is AWESOME.

that is all, lol.

Woooooo! 220 IS awesome! Yay for you!!!!

And I saw that you applied for a new job...good luck!!! I hope it works out for you.

OMG, I hope so too. Sheesh. It's a pretty big raise, and less stress. More work, but, oh well! :)

I want to loose 10 more lbs by my interview, but I have no idea when it is, lol, so I'm going to start doing 2x's a day and lower my cals... I'm thinking 1500. I dunno. Eek.

Good luck kateleestar!

I survived Cardio X/Kenpo mix. Feeling a bit sore today.

Think I'm gonna take today off and do a double of Core/Arms & Shoulders, Ab Ripper X tomorrow.

Has anyone done doubles? Or taken more than one rest day during the week? I'm trying to stick to the schedule but at times my body is disagreeing.

I've only ever doubled up a P90X workout in the am with cardio (Zumba, swim, run, etc) in the pm. The one day I tried to double up P90X workouts, I was so miserably sore for a week that I wasn't able to really put much effort into any workouts at all.

But if you're finding that you're not too sore, I'd say go for it.

Yes, I do it when I have too. The next day is tough, though, :lol: ... whew. You will wake up the next morning feeling it. ;)

I decided I will try the 2x's a day, but keep my cals at 1700. I dont want to lower them. I'm happy at 1700 and its fairly normal and easy.

Went to an NHL game with hubby last night and consumed way too many of his chili cheese nachos. Today was supposed to be Stretch X but I decided to try Plyo instead (to burn more calories). It was hard. I skipped about 20 minutes.

I think he says how hard it is too much. Kind of deterred me a little. I think I will alternate Cardio X with this one. I'd like to be able to get through the whole thing by the end of the 90 days.

That's the funny thing about these programs - they consistently say they're "so hard," and "not for those who aren't already physically fit."

Well, really? Yeah, they are hard workouts - some are very hard. But modify, modify, modify, which is what working out really is all about, isn't it?

And I'm a good 60-70 pounds overweight and can still do P90X and Insanity (by the same company, BeachBody, that makes P90X). Can I do the whole thing, step for step? No. Can I modify it, get through the entire dvd and get an excellent workout that improves not only my "vanity" self, but my cardiovascular fitness? Yes.

I think they have to put those warnings on there for people that may have never worked out, ever. Maybe?

Hey guys! I've been lurking this thread for over a month now and finally got around to buying P90X. It came in the mail yesterday and I was so excited that I ended up starting today, lol.

The workout moves aren't as difficult/complicated as I thought they were going to be (don't get me wrong, there are a couple moves I struggle through and some I can't do at all lol), but my body is definitely exhausted.

I like it so far, though. :) Can't wait for tomorrow. I've been losing lbs but not many inches, so I'm hoping this works for me! :crossed:

Alrighty--I wanted to get through 30DS..before starting P90X. Complete 30DS on 11/18/10. I got the videos from a friend but do not have the bands..is it pointless to start the videos with the bands?

You can get by without the bands if you have some weights. But about after a week, I did grab a heavy resistance band.

I'm almost caught up. Had to do a triple today...not recommended. Just one day behind, will have to do a double sometime this week.

What everyone's favorite disc so far? I like Legs/Back.
