    You will be sore so be ready for that! Try to get your nutrition in check, and make sure to take before pictures and measurments!!

    I'm on week 3 of my 2nd round. My first round was doubles.
    And like Redfie1d said, learn to enjoy the aching muscles, I'm sore every single day and I love it.

    Having completed P90X 1.5 times (hernia derailed the second time through) I have a bit of advice no one gave me before I started:

    Start planning for what you're going to do AFTER P90X now.

    P90X is a lifestyle change. Between making the food, the workouts, recovery drinks, etc, almost all of your free time will be taken up with the program.

    This is good, in the short term, because you end up completely focused on the program. You'll go to bed thinking about it, get up feeling it, be reminded of it every time you eat, etc.

    But, the day after it ends, now what? It's not reasonable to think you'll live the rest of your life this way. You'll want to be able to go out again, you'll want to have time for vacations, etc.

    So, my advice, start figuring out how you want to maintain after the program is over.

    Other then that, good luck! It's hard but by no means impossible. :)
