    Hi Everyone...I just started today! I got done doing core synergistics an hour ago and I'm ready for a nap. I felt like a wimp, but I'm guessing that gets better.

    Question: I wore a heart rate/calorie counter watch. The watch calculated 530 calories burned. How do you track that in your exercise log?

    On the main page go to track exercise. Then where it says cardio and strength, pick on and click add exercise. Then where is says search just type like P90X. It should come up empty. Scroll down to where it says "Can't find what you are looking for?" Click the link fill in the info and add. Then later it will still be in your database.

    I am doing P90X for the second time with my husband. We did it 2 years ago and loved it. Then we went to Florida for vacation and when we came back we didn't keep it up. Well needless to say I gained my weight back. We are now into the 4th week...but we are repeating the 3rd week over again. I feel so much stronger. Glad to join this message board.

    Day 10 done! I'm skipping ARX for the night because I've been putting exercise in front of schoolwork and have fallen horribly behind :/ Hahah.

    Some advice for the guys. If you're planning to use bands make sure you wear long pants or the rubber will rip at your leg hairs.

    For whoever was asking about protein bars I like Zone bars, which Target makes knockoffs and are cheaper than zone bars. I also love Clif Bar Builders choc mint is the bomb.
