P90X Support Group...

Happy Wednesday, team! Day 59 for me!!! Did Shoulders & Arms / Ab Ripper this morning... I forgot how much I love this workout! Pushed hard, increased my numbers across the board, and felt great! Had a good Ab Ripper too, with improvements from last time.

My energy level is pretty hig the last couple days, which I think is because of the increase in carbs in this phase. I'm not going overboard with it, but definitely more carbs than phase 2... Just a little nervous about how it will effect results. We shall see!

Hope you're all having a great day! BRING IT!!!

Hi team, just checking in to say that I am still bringing it. Actually, I tried my old pair of pants yesterday and I am fittign right in. That was one of the goals, but still trying to push harder so I can lose some more and eventually buy some pants with the new number.

Good job Drew, the pic looks good, congratulations on the win.

Wendy, Jay, Ro- thanks for the tips on the nutrition. I am even goign to use them eventhough they were meant for Drew

Hey guys. So with midterms, stress and eating out, my body officially hates me. I have headaches and cramps and dizzieness. But that didn't stop me from doing the workouts. today was x stretch which flew by unexpectedly. As for last night i have a feast. Had so much food i can't even begin to calculate. Any tips on how to get back up and get the junk out of the body. i need a clense or something. Im just babbling on so i can avoid doing my philosophy homeowork.
alright have a good night guys. another core synergistics for me in the morning.
GET Sexy with it people

Hey hey
So it's 1 am I got my workout in and ready for bed. Feeling alittle better. I am actually going to the doctors tomorrow to get my results from a blood test. :x
Wendy : thanks for the xoxo s . I ve heard wonderful things about shakeology but I can't afford it. X( but I do try to eat alot of whole foods and multivitamins to get my nutrition in. There are somedays I dread working out but once you get through it it's the best feeling in the world. Tomorrow is yoga for me again. That's not fun.
Jay: lol to the carpet fluff I workout in my garage so in basically rolling in dirt and cracked floor paint. Good lucks with the 6 pack
Bring it guys!!

Hey all.

Well today was meant to be Kenpo for me but I just couldn't face another Kenpo this week so I subbed it out. I've been wanting to give Cardio X a go for a while since I won't get to see it during the course of the classic program, so I pushed play on that one today.

I gotta admit I was expecting more from this workout... Ok, it got a bit better (and by better I mean tougher) towards the end with the stuff from Core Synergistics but hey, if you're going to take a bit from each cardio workout, I can think of tougher parts of all of them.

I dunno... I guess 8 weeks ago this would have kicked my *kitten* but today it barely touched me. Definitely reckon that plyo is the stronger go-to routine for subbing out. I did enjoy the wacky jacks though, not seen them before

Anyways, tomorrow the plan is to start with a nice X Stretch in the morning and double it up with Core Synergistics in the afternoon/evening. Failing that (because Saturdays are notoriously hard for me), I'll at least get X Stretch in and double Sunday with Yoga and Core Synergistics. That'll get me nicely back on track and made up for the day I've been tracking behind all week.

Mike - Can I just ask, is this your first round of P90X? I just wondered because you're absolutely storming it! Not once have I seen you miss a workout. Not once have I seen you struggle with motivation. Not once have I seen you unsure of yourself or your progress... You're like a workout machine! Mad respect to you my man.

Ok Y'all, I'm out. May check in later on if I can pull myself away from the TV

Hi gang,

I had not seen this support group until today! I am on day 48 of P90X with a mix of Insanity.... the results have been great... starting rest week on Monday (week 8) would have been nice to have this kind of group to check in with... can I join in?

Day 54 (I think).

I got x stretch in, but didn't manage core synergistics. CS and yoga tomorrow? Maybe, but I'm realistic so maybe not. I'll do yoga tomorrow for sure but may do the pickup core synergistics on Monday.

Looking forward to revisiting the phase 1 workouts next week and bringing it hard for phase 3 to get some big time results! Home stretch guys, this is it! 5 and a bit more weeks and we're done! I'll be proudly adding P90x grad to my life achievements. That's what this is all about for me, proving to myself I've got what it takes to complete an extreme training program and get in the best shape of my life. It's in touching distance and all we gotta do is keep pushing play!

Hope everyone is having a great Halloween weekend!

Jay

hey guys .. alittle update... yesterday was suppose to be yoga day but i replaced it with insanity pure cardio. i think stretch x and yoga x is enough for a week no need for 2 x yoga....needed a calorie burner in there. today was rest and tomorow is my day 1 of phase 2 CANT WAITTTTT.
all you guys are awesome. MY last attempt at p90x i was up to day 43 this time im hoping to be awesome like you guys and surpass that =] .
BRING IT =]

HI all! So this has not been a great week for me. I had to miss three days in a row due to crazy hours at work. I jumped back in today and feel so much better. I was missing the workouts and could feel it in my body. I'm going to make sure I do not miss a day for the rest of the program. Its harde to believe that phase three is going to start on Tuesday.

I'm starting to think what I am going to do after the program is over. I will probably do another round as I have a lot more to do to tone up and 20 more pounds to lose but I am going to take the rest of the month od December off and just hit the gym 3 or 4 times a week. I also bought a Groupon for a yoga studio close to my house so will use it right after the program. Thisnk that would be good after this program.

What are you guys going to do after the program ends? Probably jumping ahead but I'm a serious planner and I am already thinking about post P90x and how I'm going to keep it going.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

Hey guys. I just started my 2nd week of P90x. I did the Power 90 first and between that and MFP I have lost about 39 pounds. I am fired up about doing the P90x but doing the pullups make me feel pathetic. I am doing a good number of reps on everything else. But am stuggling to do 3 pullups. Anybody else start off with a low number like this? Would just like to get that number higher so I will feel better when I struggle to do my last rep.
