How long does it really take to make some scrambled eggs, 3 minutes?

The more fit individual will burn fewer calories than a less fit person all things being equal. Being fitter, their body is more efficient and requires less energy to perform the exercise. An HRM calculates off of your Heart Rate, Go figure, and a fit person has a harder time getting their heart rate up so their calories…

You need to be in really good shape to complete and entire workout without taking a couple breaks now and then. However if you cannot make it through the warmup without multiple breaks then I'd say you're not ready for it. Insanity is designed to go all out like they do in the video, taking a 15 second breather now and…

Back and Base is my favorite X2 workout so far. Haven't reached the P.A.P. Phase yet.

P90X is about working muscles in isolation. Think Tricep Kickbacks. P90X2 is incorporating the entire body in the movement so Tricep kickbacks in plank with 1 arm on a stability ball. Tim

I don't eat that many yolks due to the fat. As for the cholesterol issue, there are studies on both sides of the fence on this one. Firm beleiver that cholesterol levels are mainly hereditary. I pay no mind to cholesterol in my diet and my HDL and LD are fantastic, but that's me. Tim

Agreed!

If you're trying to get 120g of protein you shouldn't need to use any protein supplements. That can be done with whole foods like chicken breast, tuna, egg, whites.

Group motivation is the only way I was able to do it. So improtant to talk with those that have done it before and know where all the struggles are. As well as those going through the same things so you know you're not alone.

I'm just finishing up Phase 1 this week. It just rips your core to shreds. Kind of brings back the memories of my first round of P90X. I was pretty out of shape and it was brutal, but I just kept pushing play every day and before I knew it, I had done 6 rounds in 2 years.

Good luck, P90X rocks. I plan on hitting it for another round in April after I finish with my first round of P90X2. Tim

My wife and kids love it, I can't stand it.

P90X, P90X2 and Insanity.

Agreed, you'll only get out of it what you put in. It's not a program to be done half heartedly. If you decide to do it, please do the Classic Routine, don't mess with the Lean version. Tim

Pineapple or strawberries. No matter how good a food is for you, if you have to choke it down it's probably not going to be a part of your nutritional intake long term. Feel the same way about Quinoa, horrible. MAybe be good for me but won't eat something that tastes that awful. Tim

2 eggs, 4 whites, 2 ounces of chicken, slice of swiss cheese, 2 strips of Oscar Mayer precooked bacon, 2 tablespoons of Trader Joe's Salsa Verde

Plain yogurt of any kind is horrible to me. Wouldn't eat it on a dare. I eat Chobani with fruit everyday though. Can't stand the watered down over sweetened regular yogurt anymore.

P90X2 X2 Core - Not as bad as Total Body followed up by Ab Ripper X2 but you definitely feel it after it's over Tim

Totally depends Some days its a 600 plus calorie breakfast others its dinner. It's never lunch though.

Meat. 45 grams of protein for the entire day? 15% is just too low in my opinion.

I think that being new to doing compund lifts you'd be wise to start out light to learn proper form. Deadlifts and Squats done with heavy weight and poor form aren't beneficial. Once proper form is learned then you can add weight.

6 feet, 175 by April 1, 188 today

Steelcut oatmeal, a really ripe banana and a few raisins.

Never tried Herbalife. Been using Shakeology for a good year. It's not marketed or designed as a protein supplement. It has equaly ratio of carbs and protein. I use it as a snack during the day most time. One scoop, with ice and all the nutrients found in that are tough to beat. It's like insurance, we all don't eat…

1987 210 then 192 now Probably stronger then, at least in terms of how much weight I could lift, but certainly fitter, leaner, healthier now. Tim

P90X2 starts Jan 2!!!!

Doing my 6th round of P90X, actually a P90X/Insanity hybrid and have been drinking shakeology for about a year. Only drink it about 4 times a week, have backed off from every like I had before.

YEP. The sucrose, in an apple or in a little white packet you pour into your coffee, is still sucrose.
