I know this isn't an exercise forum but I was wondering if any of the ladies in the 20's Threads are currently doing or will be or are thinking about it.
I tried it before but it didn't stick long. Now that I have some serious goals that have become much more important to me I have picked it back up again. I think I quit out the last time because I didn't have anyone to talk to about it and revel in the soreness!!!!
Would anyone be interested in starting a P90X Thread with me and updating each other often on the dvd's, the meal plans and the changes we will be making or seeing?
Bl-I saw yours and you actually inspired this post!!! I wasn't sure if you wanted to begin an official thread off of yours so I just made another one.
Brook-sounds great!!
I just bought a small tub of protein power and some more chicken. OOF! I just finished about 3 months of South Beach and chicken is the last thing I want anymore but I'm happy to be adding some other foods in now. I won't be able to do P90X today. I really planned my day out horribly with grocery shopping, cleaning and going out tonight. Hoping to be good. I don't really drink but my friend's mother in law is hosting the New Year's party and she makes the most amazing snacks! I'll be good though because I can't move left or right without a reminder of 'Back and Arms' from last night not to mention my sides send surges of soreness through my core!!
ive done p90x before too but never did the whole 90 days most i got to was 60 days. i like most of the workouts theyre fun and go by real quick when you really get into it.. ive recently just been working out at the gym just doing whatever i feel like but maybe ill pick up p90x again...i still do some dvds every now and then but not the program. i feel like it got too easy and when i would go to the gym i felt like i was working harder burning more calories on my own but well c its been a few weeks since ive done a dvd...good luck
Jhart--What were your results when you did it for 60 days? I would imagine that would still be a tremendous change in the body considering the workouts.
I didn't do a video yesterday, terrible planning. I actually didn't drink much last night which was great! I had a glass of wine and about a shot glass's amount of champagne at midnight. Got my midnight kiss, played pool for a little while and hung out with some old friends. What a great night!
I am trying to get back on track today. I have classes starting up again in a couple of days and I still have some friends in from out of town that want to soak up some time with me. Right now I am finishing up putting my P90X calendar and journal and somehow trying to figure out a way to do my fat tester. I really actually am excited to see if there is a difference.
Did anyone else start it and stop and if so, how far into it did you get and did you see results?
i tried p90x once lol i got thru the 20 minute workout and thought i was going to die lol so im going to start with jillian and work my way up to tony lol probably in about 6 to 7 months when i have about 20 pounds left to lose...but i'm also so horribly out of shape its unreal
Ohhh Are you intending to do 30day shred? I was also looking at that but so far I am good to go on the P90X, not too much difficulty but the Plyometrics kills me.
I will do this with you guys. I was part of an older P90X thread that has since died out. I did it for 7-8 weeks straight, losing 15 pounds and going from a 16 to a 14. I wasn't sticking to my eating plan very well though.
I do a modified version of this program, since I personally don't feel as though the cardio dvds were difficult enough for me - I just wasn't getting my heart rate up high enough. So instead of the kenpo, plyo or cardio dvds, I run, do Zumba, swim, or do an Insanity dvd.
So I am doing the lean version and then after 90 days switching to the original version.
Just finished the first workout and holy cow was it HARD! I did a LOT more then I thought I could do. I am also using the teambeachbody website to keep track of my beginning stats and such along the way.
I took some "awful" before photos also! 1 Day down 89 more to go!!!
I actually have my last day tomorrow! Lol. I have really loved it. I only lost 10 pounds on it but the focus is not on weight loss its on getting stronger, more flexible and overall being fit and healthy. I definitely toned up a lot and I got so much stronger. Its hard to stick with since its a strict schedule but its worth it if you really follow the schedule and are eating healthy. I am definitely going to keep incorporating the videos into my workouts here and there. Oh and I completed (tomorrow.lol) the lean program
I ordered mine on friday, so I'll be joining you guys soon as I receive it! this will be the first time I've ever been on an exercise routine, so we'll see!
Day 1 done yesterday. I stuck to the meal plan (mostly), but didn't end up eating enough calories over the course of the day so I felt kind of woozy after the DVD. I hurt all over today. Some of it is the good post-workout hurt but I have a hunch some of it is a wintertime crud kind of ache, so I'm postponing today's Cardio and going to work on feeling better. I'll catch up on the "rest" day I hope.
