On Monday my hubby and I are starting P90X! We have done Insanity and ChaLEAN Extreme and now will do P90X! I am excited to start! Is anyone else starting P90X on Monday?

    I started on 1/2/12!!!! I'll be one week ahead of you. My first time through. I do alot of Cathe Friedrich rotations, also have done Peak Fit w/ Michelle Dozios (awesome program, BTW!).

    We'll be doing the same workouts for a few weeks though!

    I want to as the discs have arrived but I am a complete begineer.
    I was trying to find out if the weights I have will be ok or if I need different ones I have 1.5, 3 and 5kg
    and I don't have a chin up bar yet - someone suggested using resistance bands instead, but how to I do
    the fit test at the start without it or is a bar the best option - if so do different ones have different weight limits?
    as if I get one I'd rather get one hubby can use as well if he decides to join me.

    sorry for the questions

    I'm on week 2 of the Lean routine. I've done Insanity and parts of Chalean Extreme as supplementation when I needed a shorter workout due to time constraints. This is my second go 'round with with P90X after falling off the bandwagon in 2011. I struggle with push-ups, Chest and Back humbles me every time...hoping to build up to the main schedule after a month of Lean to shed the holiday goo.

    New to calorie counting and can already see the difference that it is going to make. This is the hidden secret IMHO.

    I have not yet accepted the 90 minutes of Yoga, it crosses my mental barrier of 75 minutes of workout time. Therefor, I do the Fountain of Youth Yoga from the One on One series. Working out after 9pm is rough with a standard office job and a 60 minute commute.

    Additionally, I find myself doing Cardio Abs from Insanity instead of ARX. Found a few studies indicating that it is physically better to do abs first, plus it gets over the mental fatigue that you can experience that leads to skipping it altogether.

    I'll also be on my 2nd week of Lean tomorrow. Ive previously started p90x 3-4 times and have never made it past week 3. Ive also tried Insanity once and got about 2-3weeks into it and then just fall off track. I def like p90x over Insanity. I usually substitute the yoga video with the cardio x or plyometrics..i just very much dislike yoga and have yet to force myself to do it lol.
    Maybe we can be motivation to each other? Do you use a heart rate monitor to track calories burned durring working out? I dont have one and for the cardio advised to categorize it as aerobics and the strength videos as calisthenics...How are you logging it in?

    I just conquered Plyo. I could do most moves. I had to modify squat jacks and hot foot. I have broken both my feet and both legs in the past so I did not want that much pressure on my legs. My goal is to be able to kep up with the people in video. 88 days to go!

    I've already done a round and never got to the point of keeping up in Hot Foot. I end up switching every 15 seconds, my foot usually cramps.
