I was inspired by Met's recipe above and decided to try and make my own protein bars. There are a ton of threads on making your own on this site and others and almost all of the no bake recipes are the same basic recipe. The basic recipe that they almost all have in common is: Oats Nut butter protein powder sweetener…

Insanitytobsane already hit the alternative to pull ups with the bands. I've used this method when travelling or when dealing with my quirky back which leads me to my reply. I too suffer from low back pain. I've had episodes of pain my entire adult life and it became chronic 2 years ago. First of all listen to your back…

P90X week 12 check in I can't believe it! Started week 13 today. The LAST week of P90X! Week 12 was the last week with resistance/strength training so I figure the gains I have today are what I will most likely have at the end of this week. Had some good workouts last week but there are plenty of opportunities to improve…

Nice job!!! P90X insanity hybrid is tough! I think P90X classic is hard enough! Grats on the weight loss and inches lost. I too didn't want to lose more weight but wanted to lose body fat%. I've spent dozens and dozens of hours researching diet and exercise online in the past 90 days. All of the information I've found…

My "Mo" to the left. Will be shaving it off tomorrow!

Nice stash. Mine is to the left.

Thanksgiving week was tough! Glad you are getting back on that horse this week :) This morning I actually weighed in at my pre Thanksgiving 4 day binge weight so I was pretty excited about that.

P90X week 11 check in Just in case anyone is still reading :) What a week. I had originally planned to have a "cheat day" on Thanksgiving before I even started P90X. What I didn't count on was just how amazing that food tasted. I ended up over eating my calories and totally hosing my macros Thursday - Sunday! Four days off…

Thanks for the positive feedback :) P90X week 10 check in Hope everyone is doing well. Can't believe 10 weeks are over already! I've done every single workout and x stretch and today hit a huge milestone for me. 3 years ago it was on day 71's workout that I screwed up my upper back neck bad enough it stopped my P90X effort…

Glad to hear life is getting back towards normal mets, though I'm sure you have a ways to go still. Way to keep bringint it guys. I finished off week 9 today really strong despite being super sick Tuesday and Wednesday. I posted a separate topic but thought I might post my 60 day results here in case some of you don't…

Hey everyone, Just thought I'd check in for week 8 being one for this history books!! 56 days of pushing play every single day! I'm getting excited for my day 60 pics and measurements though I wont' be able to take pics until day 62ish as my wife is out of town. My back/shoulder injury made a lot of progress in the healing…

I'm sad so many that started or were planning to start in September fell by the wayside too. At this point it is pretty much just 3 of us left I think. You, Mets86champs and myself and it turns out Mets86champs was hit by Sandy so he will be MIA for a bit but his family is ok.

Wow amazing BF loss!! I started at 20.7 and at day 52 am around ~16.5% and dream about losing more! I'm over poking around on that site

Great results!!! Did you measure your before/after BF %? When did your six pack start to emerge?

Hey guys, This group is basically dead at this point. I'll leave it up just in case but no longer plan to post accountability updates here. Might post my day 60 results next week though :) Good luck to everyone continuing to push play and those who still want to get back into it. I'll be spending my time over in the "P90…

P90X Day 52 Check in Getting up this morning at 5:45 was a bit rough with only 6 hours of sleep. I hit snooze for the first time in 52 days but after doing it I was so annoyed I got up anyways :) Once I started my Kenpo X I was on fire though. My goal was to never not be doing something. So I did lots of extra reps and…

P90X Day 51 Check in Catching up for yesterday since I got home at midnight, ugh! Workout was good. Yesterday was core synergistics which I forgot included so many push up moves. My plan was to do no push ups at all this week during "recovery week" as they have been aggravating my back/neck/shoulder problem. So I did…

p90X day 50 check in!. I still love it when I hit another 10 days and that first digit changes! Workout today was great!! After yoga this morning and a Chiropracter visit combined with over a week since any push ups and my back is feeling the best it has in a week and I have a whole week of recovery to go I'm modifying…

7 weeks down, only 6 to go!! I've been fighting through an injury now for 2+ weeks but I keep pushing play every day. I've pushed play now 50 days in a row with no missed workouts including the optional stretch X on rest days. I've fought through personal and business travel and lots of temptation but I'm sticking strong…

P90X day 49 check in for me Did stretch X this morning. Went pretty good, hamstring stretches didn't go as well, feel like I lost some flexibility today for some reason. Got over 10K steps today as well. Food was great and today is only the 2nd time in 49 days that I felt unreasonable hungry. Just one of those days I…

Way to go Mets. P90X day 48 check in Today was Kenpo X. Workout was good. Back didn't loosen up like I expected sadly. Food was great. Did grocery shopping today to make sure that while out of town this weekend I eat properly. Macros today are 44/36/20 and week to date are 42/38/20. Water was good today. Don't know exact…

p90X day 47 check in Catching up here. Was super tired last night after landing and getting food that I crashed and forgot to check in here. Workout was great. Made lots of improvements. I was starting to bounce up against 20 reps on a lot of pull up moves with the. Lack band so I added about a food of additional distance.…

Gratz on making it to week 9!!! You are close to 60 days in then. How are your results coming along? I've found that the travel doesn't hit my workout motivation or ability too much but man it makes food tough!! Getting back on a plane less than 24 hours later has me a bit worried about eating right. Good news is today's…

Since fallonrhea's motivation and idea to do extra reps I've been trying to do a little more each ARX session. Not sure I will be able to do more than this morning without my form suffering so I'm going to try and maintain the level I did today. Today's stats In/outs - 27 reps - hands held above head Forward bicycle - 27…

p90x day 46 check in Did yoga in the hotel room. Bright and early this morning. Due to the back/neck thing I had to skip pushups before downward dogs, plow shoulder stand and crane but did great the rest of the workout. Food was good for another day of riding airplanes. Calories were spot on and macros of 45/34/21. Week to…

Good job guys though I dunno about wishing for the end of daylights savings time. Blasphemy!!!! p90x day 45 check in. Half way baby!!!! Greetings again from Chicago. Got up at 4:15am equiv home time and busted out back and biceps in my hotel room. Bands + door attachment = the bomb for traveling. Workout went pretty good.…

Sounds like both of you guys missed Mondays workouts but have a solid plan for the rest of the week. One workout won't kill ya though it's easy for me to say and not so easy for me to apply to myself. P90X day 44 check in Quick check in from my hotel room in Chicago. Plyometrics was a good workout today. Had to focus on…
