Exactly what I was going to say. I have a Timex also and for my P90X workouts I burn anywhere from 550-900 calories in 1-1.5 hours. That HRM came with a test to find your Max HR but I didnt follow it because it said my Max was 164 :huh: . Even during the "non-cardio" workouts for P90X my heart rate can get up in the…

I use a heart rate monitor and burn anywhere from 500-850 calories per workout. It will vary a ton from person to person so your best bet would be to either just use what the nutrition plan estimates of 600 calories per workout, or invest in a HRM. :happy: HTH

Taryn - Are you actually pictured on the P90X ads that show on MFP?! :wink: I just saw the ad again and it had your name on it. That's AWESOME! I've seen a lot of the success stories and transformation pictures and have to tell your "after" picture is exactly what I want mine to look like.

mmmmmm oreos... :tongue:

This is always my excuse - But I am a sucker for the boy scouts or whoever sells the $10 popcorn :grumble: . Everyone in my office bought a bunch of cookies and they were delivered today and of course everyone is willing to share! I like Samoas ok but aren't really crazy the cookies overall, if I want a cookie, the hubby…

I think you'll like it, and - Yes, I could go for 95 and humid right about now.... ahaahhhhhh:glasses:

:laugh:

Perfectly fair. I have seen several of your posts and you seem very knowledgeable. I just didn't want the OP to think that P90X would be a bad choice. :flowerforyou:

I completely agree with you!

I honestly don't think P90X is hype at all, and I believe that my overall fitness has improved drastically in the past 48 days as a result of "muscle confusion"

For me, I was a member of a gym for over 2 years and was going nowhere fast. I just didnt have the knowledge or willpower to really do what I needed to do to get where I want to be! I am on day 48 of P90X and have seen great results so far. It was the best choice for me because there is no guess-work involved. Do the…

Lolo and I will be taking more walks this Spring and Summer because her boy friends live right up the road now and they like walks a lot! :bigsmile:

I am also lost... :indifferent:

Aww! Sammy is so cute! Lois will be tired for days. She played hard Friday night with her 2 lab friends and then took a road trip where she met a new friend on Saturday. She slept all day yesterday and was still sleeping when I left for work this morning. She is soooooooo ready for Spring! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

P90X Doubles so 1-2 hours 6 days a week, looking to add a running routine once (if ever) Spring arrives! I eat 1900-2400 calories per day depending on my exercise calories.

I hope you get some good, knowledgeable responses here. Mine runs pretty high during exercise too. I've been researching the "zones" and such but can't seem to get a clear answer...

I burn anywhere between 400-900 calories, depending on which workout I am doing. It is going to differ for every person. Because I am still out of shape my heart rate runs very high during my workouts, therefore burning more calories. From what I understand, the more conditioned I become, I will be able to do the same…

Agreed. I knew the meat was old burgers and that just totally turns me off. I don't understand why fast food restaurant's can't offer anything that is worth a crap.

Elyria... My husband is from Polk :smile:

I'm on day 44 of P90X. I'm still up 3-4 pounds from before I started :huh: . I'm still sore after EVERY workout... Could that be the reason I haven't lost those pounds? I have my defecit set pretty low but though I would have seen my scale go back at least a little bit by now... Also, NONE of my measurements have budged…

So true!

My GOAL is to still be wearing a bikini when I am 40!

I started out here at 137 pounds hoping to get down to about 123-125 pounds. I have been on here for a full year and am still at the 10 pounds lost mark. When you don't have much to lose it is going to take a loooooooooooooooong time to see the number on the scale that you want. I think you should start focusing more on…

2 eggs, 1tbs spicy mustard, 1 tbs honey, 1 tbs hot sauce - mix together marinate chicken for a couple hours (or you don't have to marinate I suppose) Crunch up enough plain shredded wheat to "bread" chicken. Add seasonings like garlic powder, dry mustard, crushed red pepper, whatever you like. Marinate or just dip the…

Dang! I could really go for one of these right now :love: ! I'm just missing the cocoa, baking powder and egg white! ahhhh I'll have a spoonful of natural peanut butter to hold me over.

bump for later

Maid, are you back at home yet? Lois has been restless this week keeping her mommy and daddy up at night. :yawn:

oooooooooo neat! :flowerforyou:

eApps, I gotta tell you, when I saw the title "UGHHHHHHHhhhhH" I honestly had a feeling it was you. "Like I'm going out to dinner with a friend tonight that i havent seen in a while so I know today is already going to be bad." WHY does that make today bad? You can't make a smart decision at dinner? The restaurant doesn't…

Thumper, thanks so much for your input! I will take a look at all my paperwork and gather some information. I found out that it has been in an accident before because it was in an accident last week (:ohwell: ) and is at the body shop now. My husband took it in and the first thing the guy asked him was if it had been in an…
