Is or has anyone done this workout? im going to start in a few days, i hear its pretty intense and should get the job done. my boyfriend and i are doing it together. im tired of being out of shape.

and if you have done it, any advice as far as the meals go? my friend says the meals it says to do with the p90x isnt so great.

I started the insanity program, I picked this one over the insanity because I didn't want to purchases the extra things you needed for the P90X. but as for the workout I heard its a good one, its hard as long as you can mentally stick to it you can see results. Its great you have a work out buddy :), As far as the meals its ok. over-all changing your eatting is hard regaurdless of what program you are on. You will look at it and get an idea of what is good for you and can go off your guide of eatting plan. once you are aware of calories, sugar and such to look for.
Good luck!

thats true, i heard about insanity but have never looked at it.
there is alot of extra stuff for p90, we got the pullup bar, but still need the weights and another yoga matt. i just want to get in shape, after p90, ill probably just stick to yoga, but im just starting out, so i hope this will make a routine.

I tried P90X but since I have a bad back, it didn't work out for me...but the couple times I did try it, I certainly felt it! And the guy, Tony (I think?), is pretty hilarious! Over the top kind of guy! Good luck :o)

I did p90x and it kicked my butt! I couldnt do most of the workouts because im a tiny girl with not much strength. all i used was the resistence band because they show you ways to do every exercise or workout with it instead of the pull up bar or weights. after day one my entire body was so sore from working out so hard so day two was a serious challenge and day three my arms were so noodely i couldnt life my hair dryer. lol good luck

oh, great. lol but i think that is what i need. because i need my ass kicked. i get too lazy, and i need a routine, its strange to think i was in the army doing this stuff every day, and now i have trouble waking up. LOL. but everyone i see that does p90 and yoga, all have big guns and very defined arm muscles. lol. ive had one kid, im 28, and i want to be able to wear a bikini ONE TIME, before i have another one, cause i might not get as lucky with the no stretch mark thing with the second. i weigh 200 give or take a few, and i want to be 150, ill even take 160.
