    I am actually in my 4th week now, but I am in. I was looking for a group to join but I haven't found one that started since early July.

    I am in! This is great I was actually going to start on my own this Monday but being part of a group will definitely keep me motivated!

    Brilliant, missed the last group. Count me in, please. Doing lean, classic or doubles?

    I’ve been doing for a few weeks, mixed with TJ when don’t fancy doing 90’s cardio programmes. Did legs and back last night – definitely feeling it today!

    Look forward to a workout schedule. Speak soon. Let’s get ready to ‘bring it!’ :-)

    I am so excited! I will probably do the classic but may change my mind before Monday. I am a female, I am allowed to change my mind. Lol!

    Ha, ha, yes us women are allowed to do that :-) I started on lean, moved to classic on the hybrid schedule.

    'Rowerc2': sounds like you're way ahead of us, any tips?

    :) I'm excited to start!

    I'll do it!

    I actually tried my first round of P90X a year ago...I lost 10 pounds and a ton of inches pretty quickly but sort of wimped out near the end and didn't complete the 90 days.

    This time it'll be nice to have a support system!

    Hello all,

    Just thought I’d ask, what’s the plan for the group: daily/weekly w/o posts? Weekly weigh in? Body fat reading? (scary) Any ideas/ suggestions?

    I spent the day preparing my meal plan. Wow! I didn't think it would take me as long as it did. Also, I think I have talked the hubby into doing it with me. :)

    I guess we will all post our updates here daily or whenever you feel like it. So excited!

    Hi all,

    Yes ready to start. Look forward to it. Sounds good idea posting daily w/o activities.

    I did Kenpo yesterday, was really energised after. Unfortunately no exercise today (social events took over).

    ‘Lisa451999’: well done on sorting the meal plan. It takes time but its worth it. I’m vegetarian and it took quite a while. I’d be interested to know how you get on – please do (if its ok with you?) let us know how you find it.

    Good luck all.

    I took my P90x fitness test today. I passed everything except I can't do one pull up. No surprise there. I came close to failing the flexibility test. Lol! I am short 4 inches when it comes to sitting down with legs outstretched and touching my toes. Nice!

    @unfitunhealthy....thanks! The hubby is in the kitchen now cooking up our chicken, turkey and quinoa. He has decided to do it with us. He is going to cook the food then I will get it all sorted as to when we eat it and get it packed for work tomorrow. Teamwork in action! :)

    Hello all,

    Got more people on the group – brilliant. Will post my w/o activity later today: wasn't awake enough this morning to train.

    @lisa45199: very impressed getting the hubby onboard and sorting the cooking! Well done pressing your fitness test. I wasn’t great on ‘toe touch’ either or ‘wall squat’ – just about passed! How’s everyone finding their fit tests?

    Have a good day all.

    I've been doing it for two weeks but had friends in town last week, so I only did it one or two days... (shame face). I need to start over and this sounds like the perfect opportunity.

    I am currently on Phase 2 Week 1! Hoping everyone enjoys it as much as I have. Also, I'm curious to see what everyone gets for results.... I haven't hardly had the scale budge, but have had a pretty decent inch loss thus far.... Let me know if this is the same for anyone else! (Because I have been secretly freaking out about it :blushing: )

    Hey Everyone,

    Hope your all good and ready for the action to start.

    I have just completed Yoga x,with a calorie burn of 541 calories. X stretch for me tomorrow and then begin phase 2 on Wednesday.

    I have changed my nutrition plan to phase 2 now as I felt very tired at the end of phase 1 and I have to say it has made all the difference with bigger calorific burn totals in each of the workouts performed during recovery week.

    Feeling fresh and ready to go again on Wednesday...:smile:

    Good luck to everyone starting Day 1 Phase 1 and all the best to everyone who is about to start their new phase.

    Enjoy....:smile:
