P90X3

I'm only in day two...well day three today. I hope to have results like everyone else! I am just so tired of 'losing weight' but not changing anything about my body. I want to tone and tighten as well as lose the weight. If anyone wants some accountability, let me know...lord knows I need it too.

You will definitely see results! I run Facebook accountability groups and I actually just started one last week with a couple of people that are doing X3. I find it helpful to have daily support and accountability. Shoot me a message if you want to join!

My husband and I both started P90X3 at the end of Dec, so we have just started the third block. I am not saying this will be the case for everyone, but here is my 2 cents.

The "results" I am seeing are not what I expected =( I'm more flexible, I can do push ups now and my upper body (arms, shoulder and back) are definately more tonned - in fact, they are almost too big for my liking. So it's not like it's not doing something. But my problem areas are my butt and thighs and I have actually gained inches in both these areas. I am 5 feet tall and my thighs are 2 inches bigger than my husbands, who is over 6 foot and almost 3 inches bigger than when I started. I think I have built some leg muscle which might explain the increase but anything I have gained is covered by a thick layer of fat so I don't know (I joked to my coach that it's been really cold in Canada this winter, so maybe the fat is just keeping the muscle warm). I am not following their nutrient plan mind you, but I eat healthy and am working with a beach body coach now to make sure my calorie intake and marco's are on line as they were a bit off before (this whole eat more calories to lose weight is a totally new concept to me). So I am hoping these final 30 days show some pretty major changes south of my mid section.

It's a tough program and not seeing results is devasting but I am determined to finish out the 90 days. I have read quite a few other posts that said it takes longer for women to see results and blah blah blah but you always think you are going to be the exception, right? On that note - as I mention, my husband is also doing the program and is just ripped right now.

So, in a nut shell - would I recommend it? Sure, any fitness program is better than doing nothing but I think depending on what your goals and individual problem areas are, it may or may not help. Once my 90 days are up, I am going to take a week off then do the Brazilian Butt Lift. I (right now) would say P90x3 has given me a great base to work with (plus with being only 1/2 hour a day, it got me back into the habit of working out which I hope will continue) but I did not achieve my overall goal with it. But, who knows? Maybe a miracle will happen in the last 30 days.... I currently feel I invested a lot of time and energy into the 90 days (well, 60 so far) for little results and had I known, I may of chosen a different route.

Hope that helps! I am not bashing the product at all, I am just saying for me personally (and only me, I am not speaking for anyone else) that it was not what I needed. But I do enjoy it and will use some of the workouts after my butt lift to maintain a work out routine.

Good luck!
