I have it because I wanted to strengthen my cardio because that is my weak spot. I knew the only way to improve was to focus on it. I completed the first month before, but then sprained my ankle and had to rest it. I started back with something that wouldn't be as hard on my joints, then the new p90x2 video came out. I…

Thanks for the tread. It is great. Have to see if I can come up with some motivational pictures.

I'm a p90x grad and am currently doing P90X2. Feel free to add me.

Teamfit2day, were those P90X photos from one round or multiple rounds? Either way your results were impressive. Good work!

You can do this. You're already made the determination that you want to make a change for the better. You will go get a lot of support on these boards. Just remember that there are a lot of people in the world who would love to be able to exercise, but for some reason our another they physically can't. Those of us who are…

Hey everyone, I am in the middle of my first week if strength phase. I did 4 weeks of core and got great results. Overall lost just over 7 inches. I was very pleased so far and can't wait to see what I look like after completing the program. Weekend will be a little rough because I am traveling to New Orleans for Mardi…

I'm in this category as well. I was stuck on a plateu for a long time. Hoping that I may finally be off of it. {fingers crossed}. Just have to wait to see if this downward trend will continue. I will likely be adding some new friends from this group for support.

How did the workout go?

Just remember, the great things about Tony's workouts are that you can modify to do. If you are board with P90 and have finished a round, I wouldn't see why you wouldn't be able to do P90X. Just modify as needed and do your best.

You have fantastic results for 30 days. Did you do core for the full 30 days or did you move to the strength phase? I am currently doing P90X2 as well and love it. I make my 30 days tomorrow and can't wait to see what my progress shows. I know it must be good because I keep getting complements at work about the weight I've…

Just finished my final workout for the core phase. Did 4 weeks. Going to transition to strength phase tomorrow. No recovery week because i feel good and want to get in 4 weeks of strength before my ski trip in March (will count that as my recovery week). 30 days on Monday so I will take my measurements. Think it will be…

Don't feel frustrated if you can't finish the warmup. Even that part is insane. I can't remember if I could do it without stopping the first time. Let us know how your workout goes.

Everyone one the thread pretty much said it all - do what you can and push, but not beyond your limits. I had started doing it because cardio was my weak spot in fitness and knew that I had to focus on it to improve. I did see gaines, but it is really tough. Just hang in there and do what you can. Try to push your limits…

Wow, and here I thought that getting up to a 170 BPM max was high (I think this was>90% of my max rate).

Just starting week 2 of phase 1 and I have to say I love it. Defiantly a challenge, but in a good way. I have my full schedule worked out around a ski trip in March. My plan originally was to do 3 weeks in phase 1, 5 weeks in phase 2, and have the ski trip be the "recovery" workout. However, I am thinking that for skiing,…

I've been doing the recovery and mobility workout until I get the doctor's ok to be able to lift wieghts. I absolutely love this workout. I usually have issues with my right shoulder acting up (not sue if it is a pinched nerve or something else) but it hasn't really bothered me since doing this workout a few times. I go to…

A friend just recently told me that she thought I was getting a little bit obsessive because I got a heart rate monitor to see how many calories I burn during working out. This was after my husband made a comment that I log everything I eat into MFP and I mean EVERYTHING (in his best snide voice). Also when my husband is…

I will be starting the program shortly. Can't lift weights right now and I just got the dvds yesterday. I will start with the stretching then when I get the doctor's ok I will start.

Took the day off from P90X yesterday, but I did get my lunchtime workout in. :) Figured that tomorrow was going to be the rest day or X stretch, so I'll just use that day as yesterday and do Core Synergistics tomorrow instead. Hope everyone is doing well.

Hey dl, Don't kidd yourself, those pictures show great improvement. Don't be hard on yourself. You have started in the right direction and that is what counts. Just remember that everyday that you workout, eat healthy, you are improving. You don't have to be perfect, just continue to strive to make better choices and you…

Sounds like fun. Count me in.

Hi everyone. Happy Thursday. Hope you all are doing great. I was reminded the last few nights why I do this - I want to show my daughter how to lead a healthy lifestyle with me leading as an example. She is almost 15 months old, but she is at that point where she wants to eat off of my plate. She tried some salmon with…

Thanks Kelly for anwering my nutrition question in the email. I wish it was just easy and everything worked for everyone, but I guess the key is to listen to my body (except when I want junk all the time) and eat clean. I know I will see results because I've been though the program before. Now, I'm curious, what is…

LOL @ the toilet seat comment. I know exactly what you mean.

Looks like everyone is doing great one here. What a good group that Kelly started. Just finished my 1st week yesterday. Only got to do one supplemental workout at lunch this week. Oh well, such is life. Also missed my workout this morning because I had to finish some work before going camping this weekend. Just means that…

Count me in. I'll be on day 4 tomorrow doing the lean program. I normally travel on the weekends so I normally don't get to do my works then, but I'm going to try and do 2 a days for 3 days out of the week by supplementing extra cardio during my lunch break. Brandy
