Anybody heard of or tried P90X??

**QWKSLVR** · 08-08-2007, 05:56 PM

My wife got this about 5 months ago and it's pretty fucking intense!! It uses mostly your body weight for resistance (push ups, pull ups, etc) and some weights on certain exercises.
I did it religiously for about 3 months and just kinda petered out. I lived the low carb, high protien life with the shakes and all that crap. I think the summer and the heat finally got to me!!

The wife still does it every night and has lost more than 10# she probably didn't need to lose.
I noticed some gains, shed some serious weight (about 25 lbs) got a little stronger, but it wasn't the same as "hitting the weights".
The problem is, I don't have time for gym bullshit!! The closest one is MILES away, out here!! And you can only lift so much weight in the garage by yourself before you drop a bar on your throat.

With all the weight I have lost maybe 1 pant size, and I still eat decent and haven't gained anything back, but I'm still sportin' the beer belly I built through my 20s!!

Just curious if anyone has any experiance with these videos??

Can't say that I have. I can't get motivated to workout at home. I need to clang plates and be around others doing the same.

Here is a thread about - http://www.detroitracing.net/forums/...ead.php?t=4517

I'd do it, the program looks very good, best 'at home' program I've ever seen. I didn't end up buying it because I was between houses and at the new place there isn't a spare room...

I just got this from a buddy. my garage is cleaned out(enough). After the first week in December when I get back from Florida(Disney) I am going to put a t.v. and dvd player out in the garage and start this. I just cant seem to get motivated to go to the gym anymore. I tried and its just too hard with 3 little ones. PLus I was lifting by myself and it just got old.

Either way, I am going to try this out and I'll report back.

Good luck with that.

I'm gonna try it. It was free. worth a shot. I cant see it not working. The diet is pretty good and the workouts seem pretty intense.

**orangejuiced86** · 11-24-2008, 11:36 PM

The diet in here seems to be pretty much spot on with the stuff I used to eat. And the workouts last about an hour. I'm excited about this. I just needed a break from the gym routine. Maybe if i have success with this I might get back in the gym. I've been on nights for about 5 months now and leaving the morning to workout when my kids are up and fresh full of energy is just so hard. This I can walk right into my garage after work.

**QWKSLVR** · 11-25-2008, 08:10 AM

Cool, I'll do it again too then. Then we can make fun of each other for being pussys.

It's tough man. I never did get to the point where I could get through a whole workout. There's a guy in there who has a prostetic leg that could get through the whole workout and I couldn't!!

There's also a chick named Marain or something who's nips are hard all the time. Little titties, but hard nips. She's not really hot though, so don't get to excited.

Good luck!!!

ya, I have to burn everything to dvd tonight. I was watching the ab workout,,, holy shit does that look rough. This workout doesnt look like a strole in the park thats for sure, lol

How much for copies?

**orangejuiced86** · 11-25-2008, 11:48 PM

the program is about 50gig. If you give me 15 re-writable DVD's ill burn you a set.

Err I mean I will give you the originals in exchange for a set of blanks. But the oringinals are disguised as blanks dvd's so if someone breaks into your home they wont steal them.

**orangejuiced86** · 11-25-2008, 11:49 PM

Search "P90X results" on youtube.
