    I am on my 3rd go round of P90X. The first 2 times I did not eat enough but got some results. This time I am eating more and lifting a lot heavier. Doing 12 and 15# dumbells on shoulders and arms and 20# on some of the chest and back ones. I love the shape I am getting in my arms and back :)

    I have done p90x off and on for the last 3 years, along with my husband the first time. We saw good results, although we did not follow the program verbatim and ate well, but not exactly by the program. I use it now in addition to my elliptical and running outdoors when I can. I absolutely love plyometrics and kenpo.....and I do the arms, shoulders, chest and back exercises alternating with other stuff. I started again in January and I am committed to sticking with an exercise program this year. Usually about now I figure our outside work is enough...IT ISNT!

    Hey guys,

    I am a P90x grad from 2011, and I have to say nothing has helped me more. I am stronger than I have ever been, I lost 30 lbs in the 3 months doing the program and still do it as a hybrid program with some others because I can't let it go. I wish you the best of luck. If you let it, it will change your life. Keep pushing play!

    I just ordered P90X, should be getting it in the mail in a couple days and I'm hoping to get started on Monday. A friend of mine has been doing it and I tried the Plyometrics workout, it was tough but I made it through....my legs were so sore the next few days! Loved the workout and the hour went by pretty quickly, I'm very excited to get started on my own. I'm almost to my weight loss goal and I'm looking to tone up especially in my legs and butt and I'm hoping this program can help out with that. I could use any tips or suggestions anyone has and any support and motivation would be great too, add me if you'd like! Also I noticed that they were really pushing the Shakeology stuff and the Recovery Drinks, are these really necessary to see results??

    I've done a few rounds of P90X and I've never used the Skakeology or Recovery drinks. I've stuck to basic protein shakes that I make on my own and I also use a recovery drink powder that I buy at a vitamin shop. I put it in my water when I do cardio workouts. After the weight training workouts I drink a glass of lowfat chocolate milk.

    Hey, I'm on week 10 of P90x but doing a hybrid program with HIIT running on cardio days instead of their cardio based dvds. Can honestly say feel so much stronger than when I started - can't recommend it enough. Feel free to add me as a friend, would be nice to chat about the workouts with fellow P90xers!!!

    I'm doing my first round of P90X. On day 46. I tried it once before and injured my shoulder. This time I'm doing great. Keep up the great work everyone.

    Glad to see many MFPers are doing P90x. I will be starting my first session tomorrow and I'm wondering what everyone is logging for exercise. Approx how much calories will I be burning?

    Its hard to say. Everyone does not burn the same amount of calories. Factors such as age, weight, and workout intensity all impact the calorie burn. If you are really interested in the amount of calories, I would invest in an HRM (Heart rate monitor), one that has a chest strap. You program it to your settings (age, height, weight, sex, etc) and then it will show you things like calorie burn, the percentage of your maximum heart your at, etc. As far as I know this is the most accurate way to calculate calories.

    Hi everyone! I love p90x! I did my first round almost 2 years ago and finished my second round on march 30. I had amazing results on both occasions.
    Feel free to send a FR if you want extra motivation.
    A week ago I started Bbl and my legs and bum bum are on fire!
