    Hey Guys,

    joining in, I did 40 Days of P90 before going two weeks in vacations and jumped in P90X on the 15, though as I like my starting day to be the sunday, I am following the schedule as if I started sunday, so today was Kenpo X and I loved every minute of it.
    Hardest so far was leg and back yesterday, I never felt a burn like I did during the third round of calf raises!!

    As for calories, I go with the manual info and log 600 calories for a completed workout + 100 for the ab ripper X.

    I read that stretch is between 150 and 200 if you do it on your rest day.

    KPP!

    After one week of P90X I have to say that I LOVE this workout!! The fact that is so challenging makes me want to keep on coming back and trying it again!

    For those of you who started this week, how was your very first week?

    first week was great, my legs are still a bit sore, which is new, as I was never that sore doing P90,

    looking forward to week 2

    Rest day today, I did cardio X, which is a nice quick and easy workout, plus I'm getting out tonight so it helps!

    I just got this as my friend suggested it...I'm doing more of a hybrid version though since I don't have the resources to do everything to a T, haha. Plus it's kind of confusing to me.
    Did the cardio this morning though~!

    I finished up week one today with Kenpo. I had so much fun during this workout that it almost didn't feel like a workout. My husband is a boxer and has taught me some things over the years plus I took muay thai once for 6 months or so. I was pretending that I was fighting for the world championship. ha ha. After week one, I am hooked. If I keep this up and keep following the diet plan there is no excuse for me not to get in the best shape of my life. How did everyone's week go? I hope you all enjoyed it as much as me. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

    Hi everyone:-) I started Round 5 of the classic program on 8/20... Today was my yoga day which normally I love but I felt the need for something a bit more aggressive today so I went for a nice challenging run instead...sometimes you gotta beat the stress out on the pavement, kwim? Anyway, would love to check in here as well if it's not too late? Cheers!

    Welcome NavyWifeTwinMom!

    Ran for over 3 miles as my warm up to Kenpo X.

    So for the week - over 470 minutes worked out and over 5400 calories burned. Arms still sore given the new upper body routines in phase 2

    Hi,
    Just signed up with myfitnesspal. I did P90X 2 years ago and lost 20 pounds. It was the best I've ever felt. I recently started again but kind of sporadic...about 2-3X week. Tomorrow I intend to start the program seriously again...everyday. Fingers crossed.

    Chest and Back finished, Ab Ripper as well.
    I also did 30 minutes stretch this morning.

    Going to be in an hotel for the rest of the week, I will change pull ups to use bands, though I'll bring my weights. They have a nice fitness room too so I will make sure to use it!

    Nice feeling, love the workout. any tips for assisted pullups to make sure your chair doesnt move?

    Threw in the first 45 minutes of yoga today to try and access my inner 'zen'... ran on Sunday instead of doing Yoga, so I thought "Why Not?"

    Hope everyone else found their 'zen' at some point today! Keep pressing play!

    Cheers!
