  • Is it too late to join this two-a-days fiesta? I've been working out with P90 and P90X for about a year and have plateaued at 170 lbs. I'm doing a modified version of two-a-days, but I'd love to crank it up to daily if I will get me off of this plateau.

    This A.M. Cardio X / PM bench press
    Wed A.M. Shoulders, bicepts and tricepts/ PM Cario X and Ab Ripper X
    Thur A.M. Kenpo X / PM Tennis
    Fri A.M. Chest, shoulders and tricepts/

    I had the same thing this morning! Mine will be back to back too. I'm hoping that the sky clears up too. It's raining here and I really want to run outside.

    Those of you doing ChaLean Extreme, I'd love some details on it. I've seen the infomercials, and I have the old school 'Turbo Jam', which is my main source of cardio and strength training. Considering ChaLean Extreme or Turbo Fire...or both :)

    Hey there all you two a day-ers!!!
    I saw this on the boards a couple of days ago and was trying to psych myself up for the challenge:noway: I used to do 2 - days but then stopped, quit smoking and started rewarding myself and low and behold my weight has crept back up. Haven't gained it all back but my goodness , I need some encouragement and accountablilty. You all look like a motivated bunch and you all are pullling from so many different resources - i want to be a part of this!!
    My plan involves: TurboJam/TurboFire,Leslie Sansone/treadmill or outdoor walking, FIRM w/ weights, 30DS, and Zumba,. I am committed to walking and TJ - the rest is thrown in to keep from getting stagnant and will add as I go. Ideally would like to stick to TJ + walking for 30 days, FIRM + walking for 30 days, 30DS + walking for 30 days and Zumba + walking for 30 days.
    3/22: AM 30min treadmill PM: TJ 20 + Ab Jam

    So beginning with my beloved TJ and walking for the next 30 days here we go!! AM w/o done - will report back after PM.
    :drinker: woohoo :drinker: I'm excited!!

    It feels so good to feel hopeful and excited about working out again ~ Thanks everybody:heart:

    I've been doing two-a-days on my own, now in my third week. Congrats to everyone making the commitment! I salute you all! My wife thinks that I am nuts but now I can point to a whole community of others doing it, mostly gals. Thanks! My current plan is...

    Monday AM Trail run 3 miles, PM road bike 45 minutes
    Tuesday AM P90X Chest and Back, PM road bike 45 minutes
    Wednesday AM Trail run 3 miles, PM road bike 45 minutes
    Thursday AM P90X Arms and Shoulders, PM road bike 45 minutes
    Friday AM Trail run 3 miles, PM road bike 1 - 2 hours
    Saturday AM P90X Legs and Back, PM road bike however long I want to
    Sunday Off!

    I don't actually road bike six days a week. Weather never allows it and the afternoon workout is also frequently challenged by work or other obligations. But I sometimes get in a ride in the AM, so it all works out. Cycling is great aerobic exercise! As the weather improves and allows I may switch to riding in the AM and strength training PM. Good luck to all!

    Day 2 - I must say I'm starting to push myself a little more, I tried the 10minute solution best belly blaster and the shape up. Sometimes I feel as if I don't work my sides enough so I like the Bikini belly, and doing that for 10min makes me feel like I'm doing something. on the shape up I just did the kickboxing since I didn't go to class today, It was ok since it was my first time doing this DVD, I did these two after doing JM shred, so I was tired. but after a decent dinner I'm starting to feel human again.

    Question, how do you handle weight gain dong that special time of month? I feel more hungry now then ever! I have been drinkning water,
