    Folks - down in the 170's for the first time in almost 2 years. Your body really transforms by the 60 day mark!

    Anyone done with their first Core Synergistics? looking forward to do it today, but I was wondering if it is intensive or just abs for one hour? as it's part of the recovery week, I'm not sure what to expect here

    The first few times i did Core X were quite tough - especially the steamboats - really gets your heart rate up

    That's great rowerc2! You are doing great. I am glad you said that about the 60 day mark because I am starting week 4 today and haven't lost any weight. Starting to worry but others have mentioned the same thing you just did.

    exactly my thoughts! though recovery is actually recovery from the strength training, not the cardio! (or the abs training we could say!)

    Amazing workout though!

    That was my thought exactly. Core made me miss Plyo...Right up until I did Plyo again last night, lol

    I curse Tony the entire hour, but dang I feel good after we get done, and holy cow what a sweat!

    I didn't mention that during Core last night, when I saw that we had to do staggered push-ups with one leg on top of the other, I thought there is no way I can do this. I decided to give it a try anyway and I could do them! I have definitely noticed that I am getting stronger. No way could I have done that before. P90X rocks!

    Couldn't agree more. My initial reaction is always "Are you serious?", but then I re-focus and usually am able to do the exercise. Never as many as they do, but I do more and more each week..

    I need to go back and look, but I know my original push up count was SOOOOO low compared to what I am doing now. Amazing how it works
