    Day 2 of week 2 done! Late but done!!! I am proud. How is everyone else getting along. I am finding the need for more bands and a HRM. I just wish it wasnt all so expensive. I will be hitting Ross tomorrow, wish me luck.

    I dont use the bands usually but I found that during round 1 of p90x I increased my weights from 8 lbs up to 12 pounds and with this second round I increased again up to 15 pounds and probably could use 20 pounds! I definately consider this progress!! I wish I had bought the weights that are adjustable so I didnt have so many dumbells hanging around. I already had a HRM for running and I was surprised at how little I burned! Even with Kenpo I only burned about 250 calories! Thats why I now run in lieu of doing kenpo and plyo.

    Today I did 4 miles on the treadmil and tomorrow is my day off! Then recovery week 4 starts on Friday!!

    Today was day 3 of week one for me, shoulders and arms + ab ripper x. I am sore from head to toe. This is going to be a great 90 days! I have read a lot of differing opinions on yoga x, but I am going to give it a shot tomorrow.

    the yoga is no joke! it is tough but I love it. I am supposed to do it tomorrow but I will do kenpo tomorrow and yoga sunday just due to time constraints. Thats the only problem with the yoga is its so long! great work!

    yoga x today!! SO glad I did it. Mind and body are feeling much better!! tomorrow is supposed to be kenpo, halfway through recovery week! I may run instead of doing the kenpo because I will get a better burn and I am having friends over for dinner tomorrow and there is sure to be some "cheating"!!
    I actually noticed some definate improvement with my yoga moves!!!
    Keep up the good work everyone!!

    Hey everyone. Hope everyone is doing well. What do you all enter for p90x for calories? I just finished arms and shoulders and abs and my HRM showed that I burned only 150 calories!!!! I wasn't out of breath and sweaty like cardiox and core etc just muscle pain and all that. I know when you do strength training you burn fat and calories after the workout too but it is painful to work so hard and only enter 150 calories! I entered 200 just cause.... I guess it should be enough just to know that there are benefits but what do you all think?

    la_nanita. Just to let you know. I have all of the bands and weights and find myself using the weights anyway. There is more flexibility and less trouble in my opinion. I'm not sure what everyone else thinks about that but I noticed that the people in the dvd's mostly use weights. Not sure what everyone else thinks but I''m left thinking "why did I waste my money on the bands?"
