I'm one week behind you all but I am in! Just finished moving and getting situated in a new home...no more excuses. Day 1 of the classic routine (chest & back) with ARX is complete. Looking forward to dropping some pounds, increasing my cardio and flexibility!

I have to take prednisone at high doses and for prolonged periods of time. While on it, it is very rough but I have found that if my will power is high and I monitor how my body responds to food and exercise during those times, I can still effectively control my weight. It takes a lot of work and dedication, but you can do…

Hey, I found several apps on Itunes that work for tracking workouts as well. They were all under $3.00. Good luck.

Are you looking for something on your computer or to actually carry with you? I use an excel spreadsheet for my workouts at home now but used to carry a dayplanner when I worked out at a gym. There are many different sizes of dayplanners available. Of course you can always download worksheets directly off the Microsoft…

It will help you if you will use it!!! Stay motivated, take it minute by minute at first and it'll get easier. And don't beat youself up too bad if you fall off the wagin, just be sure to get back on!! I did real well when I used this site in addition to my exercise program. I got a major upper respiratory infection and…

Hiya Violet- Well, I may get flamed for what I'm about to say because some will tell you that as long as you eat only the calorie allotment it doesnt matter when you get those calories, I disagree. I have had the best results when I don't eat within two or three hours of bedtime and eating a nice breakfast, which I used to…

Welcome! I am on day 7 of the P90X program and love it but hate it! I follow the phase one diet portion and track here. By design I take in less carbs and more protein than this site recommends and I have seen a nice level of results! I wish you success!

GreySweatShirt- I was unsure of whether to get the P90X set at first as well and opted for the Power 90 version to start with. Frankly, I wasn't sure if I could 'Bring It" at that level. Let me tell you, you will enjoy the Power 90 worjouts and they are challenging enough if you set your mind to following the routines with…

ICE! I had an ACL repair on me left knee in 1982 and whenever I exercise heavily it gets sore. ICE always helps. Generally I ice the knee for 7 to 10 minutes after exercising. If nothing else, the cold takes your mind away from the pain of the joint and focuses it on the cold numbing sensation. Good luck and don't get…

I spent years working out really hard but never really getting the results I was after. Sure I got strong and somewhat muscular, but it was always covered with a nice layer of flab! It wasn't until my wife started packing my meals according to the P90X phases (diet plan) and I carefully watched eveyrthing I eat that I…

I am finishing Power 90 this week. I have a Jiu Jitsu tournament Saturday and then I will take a week off before kicking it up a notch to P90X. I am really looking forward to kicking up the intensity. Power 90 has been great, I have lost nearly twenty pounds, increased strength, flexibilty and cardiovascular capacity. The…
