Re: P90X!

I always wondered if those worked and gave actually great results that people were satisfied with. I also knew this wasn't a post by a bot because this user has posted here before, soo. :p
it always works , if you won't do any exceptions , and many people do, and then they say it doesn't work, they like to forget all the rules they've broken ...Jeremy Kill wrote:Cool! So it actually works, huh? I've been thinking about doing it, but I wasn't sure if it was just one of those late night TV ad scams or if it was legitimate. I'm quite bored of the workout I've been doing for the past few months now already.
I'm exactly like that. So if I ever wanted to try P90X or any other thing like that I'd need a personal trained who'd be willing to do whatever necessary to force me keep going. Strict exercise and nutrition plans are so not for me.FuckT41182 wrote:it always works , if you won't do any exceptions , and many people do, and then they say it doesn't work, they like to forget all the rules they've broken ...
It's fair to say, I would ride youomgadam wrote:I just finished my first time through P90X!! It was AWESOME! Can't wait to start this hybrid workout program I've put together this coming monday. Has anybody else done P90X before or are thinking about doing it?

I use supplements, not from beach body though. Even before I started P90X I was taking Super Pump 250 (I take Super Pump Max now) preworkout, and Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Standard Whey post workout(I now add ground up oats to that for carbs).Jeremy Kill wrote:Did you use all the supplements and stuff too? I'm kind of reluctant to do so, cause it's getting pretty friggen expensive.
Also, I would prefer using dumbbells as opposed to resistance bands, but you need up to 50lbs weights? Do you use all the different weights during the course of this routine?
I followed the general guidelines of the Nutrition Plan. Phase 1: Low Carbs, High Protein, Low fat. Phase 2: Medium Carbs, High protein, low fat. Phase 3: High Carbs, medium protein, low fat.Jeremy Kill wrote:How closely did you follow the nutrition plan if at all? Or did you just not eat junk? I'm going through the book right now, trying to come up with a grocery list for the week, but this shit is adding up fast.
Because food is important and too much of a calorie deficit is dangerous and won't give you the best results. I eat for fuel.Boni Boy Blue wrote:What ever happened to "move more, eat less".

lmao that's what I thought for me at first too. I used to drink A LOT, but its actually way easier than I thought it would be, especially once you start seeing and feeling resultsblackhawk1105 wrote:Jeremy will never be able to do thisomgadam wrote: and have also not had any alcohol at all.
Haha, yeah when I saw that I was like "Aww... crap." But now that I actually have a job where I mostly end up working weekends, I might be able to pull it off. I'm not an alcoholic or anything, I've just had so much free time that all I would do is go out and drink with my friends every weekend.blackhawk1105 wrote:Jeremy will never be able to do thisomgadam wrote: and have also not had any alcohol at all.
Yea its pretty easy to eat right and keep it simple. I made a lot of stir-fry lol. I usually cook a ton of stuff on sunday and it lasts me the week, saves time too cause I'm super busy. Recently though I've been making some seriously kickass food using recipes from http://www.wholefoodsmarket.comJeremy Kill wrote:Haha, yeah when I saw that I was like "Aww... crap."

Anyway, I kind of made my own meal schedule according to the portion control and a bit of the meal planning approach. I don't think it would hurt to eat the same thing every day, although I'm sure I'd get really bored of it. I could always switch it up here and there, but I really like to keep things simple when it comes to food, haha.
