Power 90...Who's With Me?

sarabear

Sara: If it is P90X, be ready for the ride of your life. I started at 178 on P90X and was not in the best shape. As Tony says "Do your best and forget the rest". Be prepared to be super sore the first week. Heck I am super sore from the workouts I have done the last 2 days! There is no plateau and it took me a long time to be able to do the entire workout without pausing. I still have to pause once in awhile! Are you on beachbody? It is free to use the website and you can log into WOWY with chances of winning daily prizes. If you join beachbody, I would love to assist you in your journey as I am a coach there. Let me know if I can help you in anyway or if you have more questions. One thing that I do regret.... I started my first Round doing the Lean Version. I did lose weight but when I did the Classic Version, the weight just melted off me. So, I do recommend the Classic Version...

Chrissy: Awesome job on being 2lbs away from your half way goal! I can't wait to see your pics!

I know you are doing Biggest Loser videos but if it helps post on here everyday after your workouts!

tenaarnett

Well, I just found out that beachbody is only allowed to ship the Activit vitamins, regular strength to Canada. Per law they are not allowed to ship anything else other than workouts. Sorry... I think that is terrible!

Jenn: Do you have the Hip Hop Abs workouts???? Remember that I can help you with that. Just click on my profile and shop for products in there.

Chrissy: Way to go on being so close to your goal! You should be SUPER PROUD of yourself! I have the BL workouts and they are alot of fun to do. Did I say fun....

Sara: If it is Tony's, it can be P90, P90 Master Series, P90X, P90X+, 10 min trainers or 1 on 1 workouts. He has alot of workouts out there...

Tena

Sweettart

Tena: Yes I already do have Hip Hop Abs and I"ve only done it for about 4 days then stopped. Now I going to do the ENTIRE 4 week workout schedule!

Ill be back on tonight to post how many inches i've lost and if I can see the changes in my pictures!

lwagg

Well, I made it to day 14. I did Sweat 1-2 today. Monday was the first day I was able to make it all the way thru Sweat EVER without stopping and this is the 3rd time I've done P90! I think my problem is I do the program then stop for about 6 months and start again. I always miss it and think about it every day, but since I have P90X now it gives me something to shoot for after these 3 months.
I only lost 1 pound this week because we went out Friday night and I had a margarita :drinker: and of course chips and salsa. I was so mad at myself. :explode: All that work and I blew it! Doing really well this week though. It's easier now cause I felt so bad physically and mentally after my cheat. It wasn't worth it!

Lana

Sweettart

Lana: Awesome job with making it to day 14! Trust me I've never done a workout routine so long in my life! Today was day 45 for me so only 45 more for P90.

Just so you know there is P90 Master Series that comes after P90 now.

Well I went my first Zumba class tonight and it will be my last! It just was not for me. We did go on the threadmill for 11mins and I can PROUDLY say I RAN 4.5 of those minutes at a 5.0!!!!!
I kept pushing myself if a 430lb kid can run for 30 seconds I know I can and I did!

Tonight my bf did my measurements and I am down 5.47"! It would have been more if my damn thighs and calves didnt go up! My most inches lost was at my belly button with 2.25!! That means good bye tummy!

My thighs are weird they are always about an inch to an inch and a half different. Anyone else like that?

Well tomorrow is my first Sculpt 3-4!

tenaarnett

Hey Gang! Sorry such a late post! I did my P90X Shoulders & Arms and Ab Ripper with extra abs. The entire workout took 86 minutes and man did I burn alot of calories! It felt AWESOME as my shoulders and arms were burning, not to mention my abs! Then the evening just flew by before I knew what happened.... It is past my bedtime so I will try to catch up with you all tomorrow!

Have a great nights sleep everyone!

Hi thanks for the support is good to know that others went through the same that i'm going through rignt now! Especially because I see that most of you are succeeding, it makes me want to be one of you.....

I've fallow this sites diet very closely and plan to keep it up.

That Power Yoga is harder than it sounds, and thos abb routines God I could barely finish them lol
See you later and Good LUCK accomplishing your dreams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Morning Everyone! I slept super good last night but sure did not want to get out of that warm bed this morning. With the wind chill, it is below zero and we have blowing snow. We are not supposed to get any accumulation though. It is a pretty snow...

Sorry I did not get back on the thread last night. By the time I finished my workout at 7:30, then shower and dinner, the evening just flew by and next thing I knew, it was time for bed!

I will try to catch up now:

Just an update, I talked to a girl from Canada last night and she does order and get the Recovery Drink from beachbody. If you want it, just try it. It is best to order off the beachbody website. Just pull up my profile, tenaarnett and click shop for products. Then I have access to track it for you.

Adriana: Way to go on your workouts! I know that when you are sore, it is hard to push play. I was super sore yesterday but after my workout, the soreness was not so bad. You did great! Keep it up and the results will be coming soon.

Lana: Way to go on making it to 14! Keep it up and you too will be amazed at the results. What a great feeling when you can make it through the entire workout! Then, you know you are getting stronger!

Jenn: I am sorry you did not like the Zumba class. That would not be for me either! So don't feel bad! Way to go on your run though! You are doing AMAZING!!

Well, I have to get to work... I will post more later.

Adriana - great job on the workouts, keep it up and I am sure we will all be enjoying the benefits of our new transformations soon.

Lana - I am right behind you, I am on my second week of p90. The more we do these workouts, we will be able to do the entire workout and then some with heavier weights.

Tena - Thanks for looking into that for me. I will check it out. I am having issues with my account, it wont let me access anything in my profile to enter workouts or anything, it just keeps saying i have to wait for admin to approve my account. argh. I emailed customer service but no word yet.

Last night I did P90 sculpt 1-2 with 15lbs weight, and I still dont feel the burn, yes there was the behind the head and lifting straight up was hard with 10lbs weght but everything else I did.. ok the pushups I sucked at but I think I did as many as they did, just probably looked horrible doing them with my arms shaking and all. Defnitely on Monday will be a different workout, I think I will just jump to P90X and hopefully start my transformation faster. lol

Jenn - Sorry you didnt like Zumba, I still think we should get together and do belly dancing though.. I know the guys would really love if we learned the poll dancing video instead though. lol

Funny - how I've said they are fun too - I actually crave doing some exercise. I am limited due to my hip - not sure what I've done but I am able to do the Shred level 1 or 2 (2 with slight modifications) and biggest loser - level 2 and 3 haven't tried 1 since my hip - maybe do all 3 levels today - whew won't that kick my butt!!

Yep that's what I'll do - wish me luck.....

I saw the hip hop abs advertised last night - let me know what you think

So Jenn - what is Zumba! Sounds so exotic! :blushing: I would say you've added a bunch of muscle and your much more tone and that's the fluctuation in measurements. I have a really hard time with measurements too - I always wonder did I measure in the same place last time??? I can actually see progress with not so floppy skin - that's what counts!

danahub

what is P90?

huskeymom

what is P90?

Power 90 workout video, Tony Horton's one of many workout videos.

Chrissy - Good luck I have never seem those workout videos, but I am sure they are a great workout.

chrissyh

Ok - I was so inspired by all you Power 90ers that I did all 3 levels on the BL Cardio - sweatin' like a man! :huh:

danahub

hi, I would like to know what this p90 is, ive been trying to find out but geeting no responses can you help please,

huskeymom

Chrissy - awesome job!!!

danahub - I sent you a private message since you didnt see my response on the thread.

danahub

Hello everyone!

Well today was suppossed to be sculpt 3-4 but was out with my mom all day and got my hair done so I can't ruin it by getting all sweaty so am taking today as my rest day.

Awesome job everyone on your workouts!

Sorry this is short Im exchausted for some reason today so Im going to lay down and I will catch up later!

tenaarnett

Hey Everyone! Tonight I did Tony's 1 on 1 Yoga and had a really good workout with that one. It is about 45 min long. Then I did the new 1 on 1 Cardio! It was pretty good! I was very happy with it! It was about 48 min long! I got a good calorie burn and my legs are sore... But that was a really long workout! I won't do those 2 together again. I might do one and pop in one of Tony's 10 minute Trainers. Tomorrow of course I have Legs & Back! But I do have to say all in all I had another AWESOME workout tonight.

Jenn: Don't feel bad about moving your Rest Day around. We all have to do that once in awhile. Hope you have a great workout tomorrow!

Sounds like everyone did pretty good day! Keep it up guys and we will succeed and reach our goals.

Tena

huskeymom

Tena - man that sounded like a really long day of working out, I am sore just thinking about all that. lol I decided that monday for sure I am just goign to start with the P90X, I sure need something more to keep me motivated to workout.

Jenn- Cant wait to see your new hair, you didnt cut it again did you? I hope you had a good nap, i am very jealous since i really needed one too.

Yesterday I wasnt very motivated but I did do sweat 1-2 with abs but just didnt have the heart to really push myself. I was so tired I even fell asleep watching grey's anatamy and I was so upset yet again two weeks in a row I missed the ending.. argh.. I really need to learn to record these shows so I dont have to worry about missing the ending.

tenaarnett

Good Morning Everyone! IT'S FRIDAY!!! I slept really good last night. Who wouldn't after that brutal workout yesterday... I won't make that mistake again. The 1 on 1 Cardio is a new one that I got in the mail yesterday. It was funny because Tony was grumpy at first and made it known that he did not feel like working out. (Kinda like we are sometimes...) But, by the end, he was his crazy normal self and funny! He said it only goes to prove that if you just push play and start the workout, by the end , you will be so glad you did! It was a pretty good one. It was like Sweat 5-6 but with a few more tougher moves in it.

Jen: Tony sounded like you just said yesterday was like for you... Way to go on pushing play! That is what counts, you did it! I am so proud of you! I know what you mean about missing Grey's Anatomy... I finally got to watch it last night!

Well, gotta get to work... I hope everyone has a great day and excellent workout!

lwagg: Don't be hard on yourself, we all need to cheat on our diets once in a while! If you follow a diet that you can't cheat a little is very likely you won't follow it....Try to plan for it next time, we all know that weekends are the hardest because we all want to go out have some drinks the best way to do it is to make sure you get the workout in the morning to get those extra calories on our diets and to have a plan before we go out.:drinker:
Tenaarett: You are my role model, I love your abbs seeing you motivates me even more, I can't wait to finish P90 to start the P90X
Huskeymom- Is okay to be tire I'm exausted at the end of my days but you keep on pushing play and thats great! Keep it up....:happy:
Sweettart- We all need that extra pampering, A change of look is defenetly worth it after all the hard work your doing! Take care..:bigsmile:
So Today was my 3rd day, I'm very sore. It was so hard to wake up... those pushups keep getting harder lol... I'm a bit impatient, I kind of want to see results right away lol I know I just stared but I'll keep pushing play is the only way.....
Does anyone know if you don't add the extra calories to your diet because of the workout- what happens??? I feel like once I add those calories is too much food..........................

tenaarnett

Adriana: Thank you so much for your sweet words! You sure put a huge smile on my face. I never thought of myself as a role model. I am honored...

On calories, I do P90X workouts and sometimes put others in for more muscle confusion. But I average burning about 600 to 700 calories a day in workouts. I keep my calories steady every day and average about 1600 to 1800 calories. If I am doing a specifically hard workout like P90X Plyometrics or P90X+ Intervals, that is when I try to input more calories and shoot for the 1800. I schedule all my meals and do not cheat at all, except I allow myself a cheat meal once a month. It was hard at first but now my body is used to it.

Hey Everyone!
Well today has also been a rest day for me:sad:

The past couple of days I've had NO energy and have a headache that keeps coming and going. I really hope I am not catching something.

Today I adjusted my food settings and now adding sugar and see if this helps my weight moving again. Also I am going to try and follow the Michi's Ladder which is a 5 tier food chain from beachbody. I am going to try and only eat from tiers 1 and 2 which says I will have a nearly perfect diet! But the one thing I will have to add which is not on there is my 100 calorie pack snacks for my sweet cravings.

I need to shake up something cuz this plateau is killing me and I'm losing my mojo!!!!!

Keep up the awesome work, and hey if you want to do some for me I'd love you even more!!!

tenaarnett

Hey Everyone! Just finished Legs & Back and it was EXCELLENT! I added a total 4 more unassisted pull-ups to bring the grand total to 100 unassisted pull-ups. Now you all know I am not a super woman and I do not knock them out 1 after another. I do 8, shake my arms out an do 8 more. I do 16 pull-ups twice per each type of pull-up. So I do have to shake the arms out during it...
Now I am totally freezing and need to jump in shower and then eat some dinner. Man that Recovery drink tasted amazing!!!

Tena

Sweettart

Way to go Tena on the awesome workout tonight! Thats mean about teasing how good your recovery drink is and We can't get it in canada!

My headache is now gone and hope it doesnt come back and am still really tired so going to bed soon.

I have a confession: I did eat REALLY bad tonight :mad: BUT tomorrow is a new day and Im looking forward to it!

At 9am I am going to the gym and going on the treadmill for 30mins and Im going to see how many of those minutes I will be running, wow still seems weird to say me running.

Again like I said Im going to follow the Michi's Ladder but I am now tracking my sugars in my food section and how am I only going to eat 24g of sugar a day? That is like 2-3 servings a fruit, any suggestions.

Hi all, I know i have been MIA for a bit . I made a last min decision to go to florida for a week. don't get too jealous its only like 60's here, we haven't seen the sun yet so i had one goal to get a tan and its not going to happen. and im with annoying family its def not paradise lol. however. since there is nothing fun to do, i have been doing my 30 day shred dvd as well as my ab workout one everyday. and i have been eating pretty good and walking lots, so maybe ill get a weight loss out of this trip if anything. weather forcast for rest of trip- cloudy with showers :mad:
im kinda getting bored of dvding it up,so i might do some laps in the pool . i tried rollerblading one day but have toe injury at the moment which hurts to skate on lol.
its good to see everyone is still on their paths to success ! have a great workout / eating day

Sweettart

Andrea: It sucks that you went away and its cold here but just be thankful you aren't here! It is like 0 degrees and we are going to get 4-8 inches of snow today. Anytime the snow wants to stop I'd love it!

Well Im proud to say Im on track today!!

Went to the gym with my friend and did 13mins on the bike, 5 on the elliptical and then went on the treadmill for 11 and wu/cd for 1 min and then 5mins walking at 3.5 and then 5mins jogging at 5.0. I can't believe that half the time on the treadmill I was jogging!

THEN I came home and just got done my first day of P90 Sculpt 3-4, WOW what a workout!! I can hardly walk and I can hardly use my arms they are shaking!

Yesterday I bought 6 Yoplait Light Fat Free Yogurts and NEVER again will I buy them, yes they are tasty but 15g of sugar no thanks!

Hope everyone has a great day! :flowerforyou:

Hey Everyone! What a beautiful day! I got up early and went to Chandler's (grandson) basketball game. He had a blast and made alot of baskets. They won by so much that at a point of 26-0, they quit keeping score... Every time he made a basket, he looked up at me smiling really big! I was clapping and shouting and giving him the thumbs up. April said he never looks at her during a game. I felt bad for her.. Then Ashley and I made a couple stops and I bought her a little b-day cake at Wally. She was so happy. She came home and opened her presents and is playing with her twin babies and pushing them in the stroller and feeding them in the high chair. It is really cute!

Well, I plan to do my Kenpo+ and ARX w/extra abs around 3pm. Then I have to shower as Mike promised Ashley we would take her out for a birthday dinner and she picked chinese food. That is good because I can pick healthy instead of fattening...

Jenn: Way to go on your workout and calorie burn today! That is amazing! Now no more cheat eating. That is counter acting your workouts. The way I look at it is, I work out so hard that I do not want to defeat the purpose by eating bad... Just tell yourself that and hopefully that will stop the urge to cheat...

Andrea: Sorry your weather has been so bad.. BUT, way to go on your workouts! You should be proud of yourself for working out like that while on vacation. Not alot of people would do that!

Well, gotta get ready for my workout....
