Tulip89 View Profile History	P90X Posted : 26 Aug, 2010 10:39 PM This is completely random, but does anybody else do P90X? I've gotten into it recently, and it's the worst, most terrible, horrible, no good very bad thing I've ever done. It's also one of the best, most rewarding, and most addicting things I've ever done too. I hate it, but I love it! Post Reply

Tulip89 View Profile History	P90X Posted : 27 Aug, 2010 08:02 AM So you get my reference! If you're interested in a different workout program, I can't think of a better one. I'm currently sore from my calves to my forearms, but even better, it gets you sore in places you've never known could be sore before. Now to just keep it up for another 65 years... Post Reply
View Profile History	P90X Posted : 27 Aug, 2010 08:51 AM I haven't tried it, but my cousin's wife did it last year, a few months after having their daughter, and she lost her baby weight amazingly fast and was looking great really quickly! She posted her progress on Facebook... and while there were lots of complaints about P90X in there, she was all smiles when her hubby snapped pictures of her periodically and posted them. Post Reply

Tulip89 View Profile History	P90X Posted : 27 Aug, 2010 10:36 AM It's a 90 day rotation where you do a set of exercises for several weeks, then change to a different set, then a different set, etc. Since you're changing so much, you don't get that plateau effect that so many people see in working out. When you finish, you can either start back over at the beginning or do something else. It may sound weird, but I think it's a great idea for married couples to do something like this together. They can each simultaneously push the other one to do better and help each other overcome obstacles and challenges. It's pretty much guaranteed to draw them together and build their relationship.

View Profile History	P90X Posted : 27 Aug, 2010 06:33 PM Yeah, definitely! I'd be embarrassed to work out in front of a guy at first! Post Reply
