NBR: p90x

Superchicy

I keep swearing I'm going to start running again during breaks at work and kick the end of this baby weight (and then some), but I always seem to end up with something getting in the way, so DH and I took the plunge and just ordered p90X.  I used to love working out, and worked out 5x a week, so I'm hoping I really like it.  I know Jersey has done this program, anyone else?  Any advice before we get started?   Wish us luck, I'm actually a little scared of this program!

I haven't done the program, but I've used the workouts in addition to other workouts.  I love most of the workouts & hope to start doing them again myself!  Good luck!

You're going to love it! Are you going to do the diet plan, too? Watch out for Plyometrics, it's a killer! Just keep pushing through it. You won't regret it at all.

We just decided to order this too.  I have a friend who is doing it, and she is really loving it.  I can't get myself to the gym on a regular basis, and my runs are sporadic.  DH is planning to do P90X with me.  It was actually his idea to nix any gym membership and do P90X here at home. 

Maybe we can check in and keep up with each other for motivation?

That would be great!

Where did you buy yours?  I have not clicked the order button yet.  I am noticing a HUGE difference in prices online.  They all look the same, so I am concerned I may pay too much on Amazon.

I ordered off the actual website after looking around.  It was pretty much the same price, but I liked having the option of returning it after 90 days if I really needed to.  I ordered the pull up bar and resistance bands though off amazon.  The stuff on the actual website was a lot more expensive.

ETA: You can get 5% back through ebates too.

I've done it! Put me in the best shape of my life, no joke. I'm pretty athletic and the muscle tone I got from this program was about as good as I think it'll ever get for me! I highly recommend it.

I DID however injure myself starting the second round. I don't blame the program, I was overdoing it. I finished the 90 days and started again right away and was running and I just pushed it too hard. Just be careful, I'm still dealing with the injury and it has been two months at this point. I can't wait to start again though.
