    I'm currently in the middle of INSANITY and I think I may do p90x next. I'm glad it's worked out so well for you!

    First of all, congratulations. I'm doing P90X, also. On week 3. Did you do the Yoga and Kenpo workouts, also? I love the lifting and the plyometrics but can't force myself to get into the Yoga and Kenpo. I have substituted those days with running, cycling, or swimming.

    @RopenChoke I have subbed out the YOGA X. I did it for the first three weeks and then switched to CARDIO X instead. There is 15min of yoga at the beginning of that and I like burning the few extra calories. Plus I don't have the attention span for 90min of YOGA. As for KEMPO I haven't skipped that one. I know it seems a little hokey but I think it's okay. After week 5 I started doing it while holding 3lb Dumbbells to make it a little more intense. Plus I push so hard MON-FRI Kempo is kind of like an active recovery day for me.

    you should grab Fountain of Youth Yoga from P90X One on One

    the yoga is absolutely essential to performing better and lowering your risk of injury long term... FoY is only 40 minutes.

    @CoachReddy Yea I know I need to do more and was thinking about going to some Yoga classes at the gym. That is the only one that doesn't hold my attention. I think in a real class I would enjoy it. How is Yoga from X2. I think I'll be doing that in DEC.

    The X2 Yoga is a LOT more popular. It's also shorter. So you'll prolly dig that a lot more.

    Congrats on your success dude! Amazing stuff. :)

    I am doing Insanity as well although I have made several modifications to fit my lifestyle. How has your experience been with the program? I noticed a flatter tummy (even with all of my modifications) after one week.

    That's awesome. I can't wait until I'm three rounds in. I'm sorry about your arm. How about Plyo and legs while you recover? A week or two off isn't bad I just know for me that snowballs into months.

    Yes i did measure my BF. At the start I was 24% BF and as of this morning DAY 81 I am 7% BF. I started at 214lbs and this morning I was 185lbs. so I have lost 40lbs of fat and put on 10lbs of muscle. I starting seeing my abs around day 50. You can see all my progress photos at my site teamfightinggenetics.com I posted my day 45, 60 and 75 results there.

    Wow amazing BF loss!! I started at 20.7 and at day 52 am around ~16.5% and dream about losing more! I'm over poking around on that site

    Thanks. Feel free to leave a comment on any of the pages or shoot me an e-mail. There has been no real secret to it just being consistent day in and day out. Let me know if I can help.
