I'm on week 4 and love it.
does it really help you lose weight? ive been doing it for 2wks now 3x a week and the results arent really enought for me lol im feeling like im doing all this hard for nothing.0 -
I prefer Insanity, as the weights/exercises in P90X aren't heavy enough for my weight training goals. Insanity is a better program for me because I'll go to the gym and do my heavy stuff then come back home and pop in the DVD. For any meaningful lean body mass improvements (male or female) you need to be using resistance pretty close to your 1 rep max, which is impossible to sustain for the entire P90 workout.0

Keep it up. I'm in my last week, and the hard work will most definitely pay off. I started with 42 pants and now 36 is very loose.0

I've done it before, and I just started again at week 1 this week! I did 60 days a few years ago and the results were awesome, but it is very intense and can really wear on you if you aren't eating right the entire time. Also, It's important to not be missing workouts, which is sooo hard to do for 90 days, but that's the only way you are going to see the results...consistency. Especially at the beginning your results will be more about the inches than the weight. The weight will start to come off once your muscle you've built starts doing the burning.0

I only lost 4 lbs in my first month but I struggled to eat enough calories so going to try to increase my calories. So far I can already see definition in my arms and legs and this is something you have to commit to doing all 6 days for the entire 90 days. If you do it like that, you will see results. Go for it!0

I am on day 47 and I love it. So worth it imo0
-
I have lost about 20 lbs and I have 2 weeks left to finish my first 90 day cycle. I wasn't doing the nutrition but since I seem to have stopped losing the last few weeks, I am now counting calories which is why I joined this site. I am expecting the pounds to start shedding again.0
-
Im starting a second round...i had great results during the first round however, i was missing days throughout the week. So, im changing my schedule and gonna push thru the whole thing again...I'm gonna post pics soon. anybody can add me if u like0

Stick with it, and pay attn to your diet.
First round last year, I went from 214 lbs to 169, and literally backed me away from diabetes. Over the winter I went back up to 189ish.
Just finished week 2 of round 2, and back down to 180ish. Goal is to get down to 165 and stay....
First time around I was on a strict doctor-ordered diet (no/low sugar, diabetic's diet).
This time I'm just using MFP to make sure I pay attention to everything I eat. And I eat well. Because I food.0 -
I am on day 46 of my first time round and have to admit i am now loving every second, the first three I was wondering if I would get any results being a workout dvd, but I have to say I am now seeing the results coming through. Awesome workout0
-
Im definetely giving this a go after Insanity, sounds awesome!0
-
started in February. but due to a family illness I had cut way back. Going to RESTART next week.0
-
i tried it for 2 weeks last year and noticed a big difference. strength, stamina, weight loss. then i caught a bad cold and fell off the wagon. i want to try again really soon0
-
I start week 9 tomorrow and love it. Tony has the right personality to keep me interested/entertained/challenged.
To the person above concerned about minimal weight loss: Give it time, it'll happen. I gained weight for the first few weeks but lost inches. My weight loss didn't pick up until phase 2 started.
Make sure you eat and sleep enough. If you don't, your results won't be as awesome. I'm down 14lbs as of today, but I am subbing the Yoga for Cardio of my own so that might have a small affect on my loss.0 -
I'm on day 11 of p90x and i love everything about it except for the Yoga & the ab ripper X...lol! This is my first time around doing it and im a big guy, but I havent missed a day yet. I use a mixture of weights and the bands because I cant do all of the pullups yet. Dont plan on stopping or missing a day. The workouts are full of personality and encouragement so even when I cant meet a goal, Tony is there saying "see I just took a break too, take a rest if you need it". I can really feel the difference in my body already. im HYPE and im ready to BRING IT!!!0

I just started a P90X/Insanity hybrid and it is FUN!!!!
Good luck with Insanity!0 -
I completed 90 days in October and I'm on day 45 this time around! I love it! "Do you best and forget the rest"0
-
I am day 46 and LOVINGGGGGGGGG IT. Major difference in body composition. Stick with it. I do it 6 days a week for the past 8 weeks.0

I completed 90 days in October of last year and I'm on day 45 this time around. I didn't follow the nutrition guide the first time, but cut calories and lost 16lbs. Starting the second round, I'm using MFP (watching calories, fat, sugar, protein, etc.) and have lost 31lbs and counting. I've also started the C25K (trying to embrace a new skill). Stick with it and good luck!!0

Hey, I just started the C25K thing...well, I downloaded the app and I'm going to start on Monday when I start round 2 of P90X. It's exciting for me and I'm gonna continue to push myself.0 -
Sore from Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps yesterday. Always seem to have one muscle group or another sore at all times. I LOVE IT!!0
-
I started in April and I today was day 61. I have lost 21.2lbs, 11 1/2 inches, 3 pant sizes, and 2% body fat. I love this program. Step away from the scale and take your measurements and photos. Also look at this post from a fellow P90xer http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/580019-the-scale-is-a-lying-torture-device-i-m-proof0

P90X is NOT a weight loss program. It's a FITNESS program. A pleasant side effect is loss of weight because you build muscle and muscle burns fat. For most women you WILL lose weight by the time the program is over but you will drop mulitple sizes. Stick to the program as close as possible and you'll be happy you did.0 -
thanks for everyones support, wow i didnt kno so many ppl were doing p90x. i wanted to try insanity but i felt it was a little to intense for me being this is my 1st time on a weight lost journey but i wanna try it also maybe after i lose my 1st 30 pounds ill switch it up. THANKS EVERYONE !0

Im doing p90x! I think it works really good. I do p90x some days and also add in HIIT cardio and then other days i just go to the gym. I have noticed I have more muscle in my back, arms, stomach, and quads. My advice is to stick with it and eat good and you will see results.0

How do people log their P90X workouts into the system to calculate the calories burned? I started to and it just seemed too complicated and was taking forever. And the weight training doesn't burn calories? Still trying to figure MFP. Only my third day.0

There's a website called P90Xcalories.com that gives u the estimate of how many calories you burned...so, from there u create your own exercise and and log the calories that way...I found out about the site a lil while ago bc I wanted to now how many calories each workout burned0 -
I have P90X, I think I want to start it in 1-2 months but I am pretty sure I'd fail the initial fitness test.0
