Is P90x not allowed on MFP?

i just started using MFP two days ago! Loving it! But what I have noticed is that nothing is mentioned about using P90x (at least not in the last 3 months).

Is it a rule to not be included here? I guess I will find out when this post is deleted!!!

I also noticed that no P90x exercises are mentioned in the database of strength training exercises... Before I go and add them all, is there something else that you are using to log your pluometrics, shoulders and arms, etc., DVDs?

Thx!

    I'm not sure why you haven't seen anything, but I've read tons of posts and comments on P90X. There are a lot of people on here who do it. I think the reason the workouts aren't in the database is because they can be so different, depending on the individual. I think most people just use a heart rate monitor to log their calories burned.
  • I'm not sure what you mean. I'm new to MFP but in the month or so I've been here I've seen a TON of P90X posts. Also a search shows 50 pages+ of posts which include P90X in the text.

    I do P90X and love it. I have never found it on the exercise data base, but I use my heart monitor and just put it under general strength training. Hope that helps!

    In order to record your P90X workout - People use HRM to log it in - Everyone is different. Best Wishes xo

    The search function could use an improvement, I was looking for something on Biggest Loser yesterday knowing there had been recent posts but search brought up first threads from 3 or more months ago, and if a thread had 50 posts I got 50 results pointing me to that thread. Went to google to use their advanced search for keywords biggest loser and restricted to MFP as the site and the thread I wanted was the number one result.

    There's lots of stuff that comes up on a regular basis, when search brings up first a page of results that are 3 months old it would look at "first glance": that no one has brought it up "recently"

    Edited to add:
    So glad someone suggested the google advanced search to find what I was looking for "easier" so just sharing the tip
