Hey, has anyone had any positive results with the intense weight loss, muscle gaining program known as P90x? I've heard only positive things about it but that was only twice, so eh...*cough* anybody? *cough*

I know I'm ready for it but yeah, all opinions about it, or any other personal programs, even those created by members would be appreciated.

I'm 15 years old and I'm wondering if doing p90x is a good idea or bad idea?

good idea or bad idea for what purpose?

What are you looking to achieve?

(Duplicate thread merged... Please search next time)

I'm looking to get more muscle but i'm also looking to loose some wieght.
I'm big for a 15 year old though I'm 5"8ft 195lbs.

wat i mean by bad or good idea is, is it going to injure my body or something else.

never mind i love this workout i don't even have to follow the diet and i've still lost 8 pounds in the first 2 weeks but i did eat healthy.

hi am starting p90x lean starting monday.....anyone wanting to share experiences...need ur help for motivation

I bought the video because I figured if I liked it I could always do a second round when I was in better shape. There is a fit test that you take before you start and I just squeaked through because I can't really do push-ups. I think the program is worth doing even if you're not in good shape. You do as many reps as you can and just keep going. I could also only do the first 30 minutes of the yoga tape, and have had to do modifications on some of the moves (no weights, for example), but this is a program that will challenge me for a long time to come so I think it's a better buy than an easier program that I will have to trade up from. If you listen to you body and watch you form injury should not be an issue.

My mom bought them a while ago they are great but you shouldn't follow only them if your main focus is weight loss definitely mix it up and get your cardio on point. i love doing the dvd cardio x if i had alil to many calories that day.. just blast 350 to 400 off me

Hello all I am new here.....Name is Tony, live in texas...

P90X undoubtedly works. It is guaranteed and they honor it if you haven't achieved the results. You have to follow the workouts and nutritional intake. There is no gimmick or fad, it is about clean food and balanced intake. It isn't an easy program but if you are interested in being in the best shape of your life it is well worth it. People have downloaded copies of it and unfortunately you are without the tools that the program includes. The nutrition guide is a very important part of the system. I have had awesome results, I feel better than I ever have and I am not stopping.

As far as getting injured by doing it? You are at risk for injury when you do not follow the guidelines of any program or exercise regemin. The videos are aimed at those people who are out of shape and those in shape, instructions on how to modify it as you go through it are included in each exercise. You will know all you need to know by doing and watching what the video has to offer.

If you would like to see my transformation I have a blog site but am unsure of the rules of posting it so if someone can clarify those or send me a pm I will send you the link. It is my website dedicated to encouraging people to achieve their goals and shows my transformation.
