If u cant do a pull up a bar isnt gonna help much.. I would start with the bands and as u get stronger progress to a pull up bar. my wife completed p90x and at the end could still not do a pull up so she still uses the bands
-
I didnt do insanity by itself i just substitued it on my cardio days, But i imagine if i did nothing but insanity i would prolly loose some size due to it being a mostly cardio program but i am by no way a trainer. I just push the play button. I think the way to get really ripped is diet especially in the stomach area ,…

I have been doing tony hortons one on one killer abs in place of ab ripper x for my p90x routine. If you want something to work your abs This is the tape. I was use to arx and never got sore now with the killer abs tape im sore again... Its about 25 minutes long

Jamie I understand what you are saying , but what im saying is during your 1 hour work out you hrm doesnt subtract your bmr which for most people is 60-100 calories per hour. This is why I shut mine off and I could be totally wrong
-
I turn mine off after work out I figure these extra 60-100 calories are what i would have burned if i wouldnt have worked out. The HRM doesnt subtract your basic calorie burn while not exercising.Not sure if that is the correct way to do it , but thats what i have been doing

Thanks Everyone at least im not alone ... DeeDeeLHF I think you are spot on that your heart rate just doesnt stay up like it does jogging, cycling , eliptical and so on. Ghanie Im pretty sure upper 40's is okay from what ive read also.... i tested mine when i woke in the morning Bear00 it could be the hrm but looking at my…

I have done the inexpensive walmart type only to end up spending more on a quality one the polar ft7 is what i have now. Don't waste your money on a cheap one without a chest strap. I would use an online calculator until i could afford a quality one
-
you will have to add it its not in the data base .I added it under cardio exercise named it p90x and count it as 600 calories. Unless you have a heart rate monitor and want to get real specific with the calories, but i have found going with 600 calories per work out like the guide says is about right.
-
hey from louisiana also I use this site to track my calories for p90x and my other work outs. good luck and welcome!!!!

i did 6 miles in 1hour incline 1 this morning it was my longest run yet, and my legs are letting me know they are not happy with me...

Eriny Im assuming this is from p90x chest and back that puts you averaging 40 push ups per set.... I have completed the program and am on my second round and I can manage that many. I try to average 20 -25 and i have a hard time with that .. Good work

I dont follow the diet plain but I try to eat as healthy as possible. I work offshore in the gulf of mexico so sometimes im forced to eat what they have. I finished 1 round of p90x and got great results im sure if i would have eaten like the plain suggest the results would have been even better.
-
First congrats on finishing p90x I also just finished and am on round 2!!!!! I have heard alot folks say they gained some initial weight in the first month of insanity but lost it in the second half. Stick with it im going to be ading some insanity to my p90x workouts. As far as the dr. pepper and sugary snacks I dont need…

I also have the FT7 and it is well worth the money. I bought a cheap one from walmart and it was a waste of money get a quality one first time around and be done with it.

Just a set of bars that allow you to get more range of motion google push up bars... Dumbells can also serve as push up bars. Im out of town and didnt bring mine , but i do way fewer reps with them and they dont hurt my wrist nearly as much
