Just started FXB this week. So Far I like it, the workouts are tough but short. And there is no doubt that it will work when you feel it burn like that!

hey guys n gals. congrats to those starting level 3/4! its tough I know, so many squats and lunges! You will probably feel burnt out after the first 2 or 3 days. but I started feeling better the 2nd week so keep going. remember doing something is better than nothing so you can revert back to level 1 for a few days if…

Hi All, Here are the final poll results: ....and the winner and STILL most dreaded is 777 pushups! Im kinda surprised that ab ripper didnt get more votes. What is your least favorite/Most dreaded Power 90 Exercise? 777 wide tri die, pushups 5 chair dips 3 two arm kickbacks 2 side kicks 2 run lunges 2 ab ripper 2 x cross…

uhh cant sleep. I remembered the question about rest days. I think it is more benficial (for me) to do 2 rest days a week (like roy). But I like doing 3 days p90, 1 rest, 2 p90, 1 rest. etc. I think your bod can recover better which is more beneficial than buring out on day 6. REmember though this means you have to work…

cool roy! 777 be damned! I remember the first time i completed 777 pushups, it felt good. by the way, wait til you try decline pushups for the first time, I was like WTF! fast forward to today. I did 20 for the first time!!! PS. I'll race you to 60 pounds lost young cat! be warned i have a secret strategy!

I have only lost 5 pounds on P90 so far but I was active before and already lost the "easy" pounds. but I dropped an additional 2 inches in pant size and have added alot of muscle weight I think. the mirror doesn't lie.

Well I’m still here! 2nd week using level 3 DVD’s. week 7 total. I did cheat the last two weeks, and I will tell you why. LEVEL 3 SCULPT IS NO JOKE! I was really sore after day 2. On days 3 and 4 I was just going through the motions and felt like crap all day. I took extra rest on days 5 and 6 because my "body told me" I…

For those wondering about Power 90 here is a link to user reviews which also describes the workouts. that website has reviews for a ton of other videos too. http://www.videofitness.com/reviews/power90.php

Im still going, and my knee is doing better. I did all my workouts this week and just substituted jumping jacks for the bunny hops, thats seems to be what hurts my knee. Ready or not, Im going to try try level 3 next week for the first time. I think my body is already getting used to the level 1 workouts. This is going to…

who is still going? My knee has been bothering me so I am planning to switch to the gym eliptical this week for low-impact . I will still do the sculpt circuit (upper body only) and ab ripper. I might have to get a knee brace if this keeps up, getting old I guess. I powered though the pain last week but it got worse,…

2 weeks down! rest day tomorrow!

i like the quiche idea. another lunch i thought of is tuna/chicken salad using celery to dip it.

Thank god for the rest day. Its so draining to do this everyday but still seeing a little improvement each time. Im realizing supplements are probably a good idea, so I ordered some pills to help muscle recovery. Im starting with those tomorrow and I'll let you know how it goes. Im on day 10, level 1/2 about 85%. I've lost…

I used to eat "breadless sandwich" for lunch. but it was so depressing. now I make "hor derves" using tooth pics with meat, cheese, pickles, olives, pickled okra, grape tomatoes, onions, etc. sometimes with mustard make them ahead of time and have a side salad and you wont miss the bread. oh also find a sale on frozen…

Haven't missed a workout yet. Im on Day 5. Im gunna stick with level 1/2 for now until I can do it 100%. Struggling with the pushups, dips, and jumping jacks right now. Melanie how should we "check in"

Hi All, I started Power 90 two days ago. I have been working out at a gym with eliptical/weights for the last three months but recently hit a plateau, so I thought I would give this a shot. I completed the cardio somewhat easily and it seemed like a pretty short workout, i wasn't breathing heavily for more than 10-15…

you could try this as a substitute. not the same I know but its still delicious and only 150 calories. 2 Andes - Creme De Menthe Thins candy, 50 cals 1 Jello Sugar Free Pudding Cup - Chocolate Mint Fudge 60 cals 2 tbsp Cool Whip - Lite (Can), 15 cals 1 Graham cracker 30 cals crush up the graham cracker and creme de menthe…

Lots of good info here thanks to everyone for the posts. I decided I will change my mfp goal from 2 lbs/ week to 1.5 lbs to give me a few more daily cals and allow more of a buffer so i dont accidentaly go into starvation mode due to not eating all of my exercise cals. by the way, i absolutly love this site. when i used to…

thanks to everyone for all the replies. What are the BMR websites that you suggest above?

you are welcome:happy: I like to share this type of info and get tips from others. Also, I should have mentioned these are the ready to serve pudding cups that are sold in the dairy section at the grocery store, there is also an espresso/chocolate flavor which is also great!
