P90X – Plyometrics – I’m a Wet Rag
© Tim Pannell Photography
Ok….I did my p90x plyometrics workout this morning and was a wet rag. I didn’t even finish the complete workout I was so hammered. My legs were on fire about 1/3 of the way through.
I played racquetball last night for a couple hours until my legs were like jello and the effects of that were obviously still lingering this morning when I started P90X.
I’m pleased with myself for getting up and giving it a shot….just bummed I couldn’t suck it up and do the whole thing. I’ve dropped 6 pounds in the last 3 days so that’s at least encouraging.
I’m feeling better today than I did yesterday. My sister in law was released from the hospital last night and is home resting. There are so many friends in the neighborhood and from the church coming around in bunches to show their support and give her help with anything that needs to be done.
It warms my heart to know that so many people love her and are pulling for her and are pitching in. In that sense….life is good…in spite of the obstacles. She’s weak today, but over the halfway mark with her radiation treatments. She’s eating, even though it’s not much fun and the taste is completely whacky.
I watch her and am amazed at her great attitude and ability to focus on the positive…..I have no reason to complain about anything in my life at the moment.
I have been eating better the last several days as well…..lots of hummus, guacomole, tomatoes, cucumbers. Feeling much better physically than I have for weeks. I guess the hardest part fo rme has always been breaking the unhealthy cycle of being lethargic and eating crap….especially at night just before I head off to bed.
I’m doing better and will continue to do better. When I get back to P90X Plyometrics next week I will be stronger and I will be able to complete the entire workout like I used to be able to. I’m playing racquetball again tonight so we’ll see how it goes……no complaints…….just getting busy. I will overcome this weight problem once and for all.
Tomorrow is P90X Shoulders & Arms….my favorite P90X workout of all…I’m looking forward to it.
P90X – Healthy Lifestyle
© Tim Pannell Photography
Again I’m guilty of not writing for a while. I’m making it a habit of not staying up on this blog. P90X has definitely been part of a healthier lifestyle for me, but my wife and I are still trying to get a better handle on her schedule at work and make our P90X routines more………well…….routine.
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how random things can be in life and appreciating all that I have to be grateful for. I have a very dear friend who was just diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer.
They never smoked a day in their life, run 6 to 8 miles 6 days of the week…religiously, lift weights, teach gym at elementary school, play tennis and eat healthy 99.9% of the time.
I’ve known since I was a kid that there was no fairness in life, but this seems so far beyond unfair. Here I am, a schlubb with a huge weight problem and they get cancer and are in a battle for their life.
They are strong and extremely healthy other than that small mass of cells and I believe that they will beat this thing down into submission.
I think about Lance Armstrong and his very public fight with cancer. He was such a healthy individual and came out on top in the end. My friend will do the same……I’m sure of it.
I know that the numbers of success stories are few and far between for this type of cancer, but the number of extremely fit and healthy people to get this type of cancer is few and far between as well. In the end, my friend is the kind of person that will triumph over this stupid disease.
Today, I’m just grateful for my health, I’m grateful for my amazing wife….my soul mate….my best friend and our 5 wonderful kids. Life is good. I need to make the most of every minute I have. I will be fit again…I will most likely never have the “8-pack” I had in High School and college, but I’ll be healthier and more fit.
If you took a snapshot of my lifestyle 7 or 8 years ago and compared it to today….I have a much healthier lifestyle today and P90X has a big part of that. I’m playing racquetball again several times a week and I’m doing at least 3 rounds of P90X each week. I have a lot of room for improvement so I will recommit again to doing what’s best for my health. My wife and I will find a way to make this more of a routine and get consistent with our P90X schedule.
If any of you have cancer success stories you’re aware of and wouldn’t mind sharing them, I’d love to be able to share them with my friend so they can hear some positive re-enforcement. Thanks in advance!
P90X Workout – Chest, Shoulders & Triceps
© Tim Pannell Photography
Well, we finished day 4 yesterday by doing the P90X Chest, Shoulders & Arms Workout.
It feels so good to be doing P90X consistently. It’s only been 5 days since I started working out with my wife and sister in law, but I can tell that this is becoming a repeatable routine.
We started working out on Thursday with P90X Shoulders and Arms. Friday was Kenpo X, Saturday we did Core Synergistics.
We took a break on Sunday and started back up on Monday with Chest, Shoulders & Triceps.
I’m not sure what workout we’ll do this morning, but I know we’ll be doing one of them.
My body is sore in a few places, but not too bad when you consider the intensity of the workouts.
Some of the different types of push ups done in the “chest, shoulders & arms” workout really tax me.
I’m feeling tightness right where my chest attaches to my shoulders.
It’s a good feeling. That’s one of my favorite parts of working out…….feeling my muscles and being just a little bit sore.
The beauty of the P90X routines is that they work different areas with different exercises from disc to disc.
The soreness I feel in my body moves from day to day to different muscle groups………..I love it.
That feedback from my muscles lets me know the workouts are doing what they’re supposed to do.
The bottom line for me is this – I am at a stage in my life where I can’t wait any longer to get committed to changing my lifestyle.
I started P90X last year and have made a lot of improvements in my life.
I’m eating better than I was. I’m working out more often than I was.
This year I need to get more consistency. I know it’s unrealistic for me to cut out sugar completely, it’s just not gonna happen.
Though I can and will do a better job of limiting the amount of sugar I take in.
I have a better system in place this year to keep me on track with my workouts.
I’m basically just piggy backing off of my sister in law since she’s been working out on a daily basis for years.
My wife and I are accountable to her and since she’s coming over to the house in the mornings for P90X with us, we have no excuses.
We have to show up.
In fact, she just walked in so I’ll have to finish this post after today’s P90X butt kicking.
I’m back after an hour of P90X “X Stretch”. It felt pretty good.
I definitely need to work on my flexibility. This workout helped me easily identify the areas of my body I need to work on.
I know that by keeping with it my flexibility will improve.
I’m so glad I’m in a position to be working out every morning. It just improves my entire outlook for the day as well as gets my body in shape.
If you’ve struggled with your weight year after year or decade after decade you have to make a choice.
I’ve decided that I can’t continue to live my life with an extra 100 pounds. I’ve lost over 45 pounds and have about 55 more to go.
I know that as I apply what I’ve learned by cycling through the P90X workouts, ride my bike consistently and eat more responsibly I’ll eventually reach my goal.
Maybe I do it in a couple of months, maybe it takes me a couple years. I am embracing the process and focusing on that as oposed to just focusing on results.
I will be healthier from doing these things, whether or not it immediately shows up on the scale.
My mindset is changing as I do more and more of these workouts.
I’m no longer just hopeful. I actually expect to succeed at reaching my fitness goals.
I can now see myself at my target weight. I can picture it in my mind’s eye.
I can feel it, I can taste it. I will reach it
P90X Workout – Hang In There!
© Tim Pannell Photography
I started doing my 2nd full round of the P90X workouts last week and I’ve lost 2 pounds. I’m now weighing 266.
I’m also riding the bike for an hour a day as well. My left knee is still tender, but the motion from the bike doesn’t bother it in the least.
I feel good and I’m feeling all my muscles again after the workout.
I don’t ever remember sweating this much in my life as when I’m doing these workouts. Maybe it’s because I shave my head and there’s nothing there to soak up the sweat. Let me rephrase that………..I shave 1/2 my head, the other half falls out before I can get to it.
In any case, my endurance is better than ever. I have noticed being a bit weaker in general after taking one month off of P90X. I’ve had to drop 5 lbs off some of the dumbbells I’m using for a few of the exercises.
My guess is that I’ll be adding that weight back on within a week or two and quickly surpass where I left off over a month ago.
I’ve basically got close to 3 more months to go on this and my expectation is to have lost at least 24 more pounds by the end of it.
After this round I will be looking at doing Shaun T’s INSANITY Workouts. I hear they’re pretty intense. I hope I’ll be able to keep up.
If you do happen to be overweight like me and are wondering about P90X, I would ask you to check with your doctor first before starting the program.
With that being said…..many overweight guys have asked me if its just too much and too intense of a workout if you’re carrying 50 plus extra pounds.
My answer is it depends on the individual. I took it pretty easy the first month or so. I did what I could do and when it got a little cuckoo I slowed down or even rested and waited for the next set of exercises to begin.
Trust your instincts, if you think its pushing you too hard, take an easier approach. There is always someone on the workout dvd that’s not maxxing out and is taking it a bit easier than everyone else. Pace yourself and most of all, be patient.
The results will come in due time. Some people lose weight right away, some are stubborn losers and yet others may put on weight initially. I put on about 8 pounds before I started losing weight.
I could have gotten discouraged, but instead I just focused on how much better I was feeling and how much more energy I had. I got through it and eventually started losing the weight. At my heaviest I was 310 – now I’m 266 and dropping…..pretty cool!
Hang in there!
Racquetball and Photography
Racquet © Tim Pannell Photography
It’s been a while since my previous post……sorry about that. I’ve been super busy writing content for a photography workshop I’m teaching online in October for moms that want to take better pictures of their kids.
It’s coming along pretty well, but it has consumed almost all of my free time. I haven’t done any P90X workouts since my initial 90 day period.
This week I have been playing racquetball for 1 to 1 1/2 hours a day. It’s been good to get back in the court, but I haven’t played as well as I used to in the past. My go to shots are rusty to say the least and more than anything I think I’m sidetracked with my photography workshop to the point that I’m having a hard time getting my head into the games.
That’s a new problem for me. I’m also struggling with my left knee again. It is sore as crap and my left heel is bruised from a poorly timed landing. I’m falling apart, quite literally. I have stuff just hanging on by threads at this point in my life. Another adjustment, I was pain free for the last 3 months….it was nice!
I’m playing somebody new this morning and I’m concerned I’m too sore to give him any kind of run for his money. I guess we’ll see.
I will be starting round 2 of P90X on September 1st and am looking forward to getting back into those workouts. I’ve taken a little time off just to see what happens to my body and I can tell my arms especially are getting a little softer. I will do some weightlifting next week, but not an all-out P90X assault.
I still weigh 268. I have been there for a month now. At the beginning of this journey one of my main goals was to not get discouraged if the weight didn’t just fall off my body even when I was working out hard. I know that I’m healthier and more fit when I’m exercising consistently. I’ve been riding the bike the entire month of August except for this week when I started playing R-ball every day.
I’m gearing up for September with the goal to hit it pretty hard. I’ll do P90X workouts and ride the bike at least 6 days a week and throw in some racquetball for good measure unless my knee and heel keep flaring up.
It’s been a fun ride so far. I’ve gone from a high of 310 down to 268. I have a total of 58 more pounds to go til I hit my goal weight of 210. Once I’m there I’ll make some decisions about what comes next. I may decide to lose a little more weight or I may decide just to maintain, depending on how I carry it.
Well……I went and played racquetball this morning and I think I totalled my knee. I hit a kill shot along the left wall and went to slide out of the way. My left foot stuck to the floor as if it was nailed there. That almost never happens on this court. My knee hyperextended and buckled and I went down.
As is typical for me, I got back up and played. My adrenaline kicks in and I’m kind of stupid “old school” that way. You never quit unless stuff is actually falling off you. It was really sore yesterday and if I wasn’t paying attention it would buckle and just give out.
I woke up today and can’t even put any pressure on it without it collapsing……..how fun is that! ? ! Getting my knee scoped right now is so not good timing. I guess it never is, but I have so much on my plate at the moment. Today’s Sunday. I’ll stay off it all day and see if it’s any better at all tomorrow and if not……..off to the docs office. I hate doctor’s offices, I know I shouldn’t feel that way, but I hate going.
I also hate surgery. I had 60% of the cartilage in my left knee removed when I was 18 years old. That’s why my left knee has continually given me trouble. I had xrays done a couple years ago and it was pretty close to bone on bone at that time. Who knows how bad it is now.
The real bummer for me is that for the first time in years my knee was pain free the whole time I was doing P90X and riding the bike. No pain, no swelling, no problems. Maybe it’s time for me to give up on racquetball. I hope not, I love the game. It’s also great exercise.
I’ll keep you posted.
P90X Diet Tips – Processed Sugar Sucks So Bad!
Chocolate Chip Devil
Holy crap! My wife made a gazillion chocolate chip cookies to send out as thank yous to a bunch of our friends who’ve been total sweethearts to us and our kids.
It’s a nice gesture. There is a problem though. I like those $#%@^@* cookies. I hear them calling to me when I’m in the other room. My wife has been unsuccessful at packaging up those cookies and getting them delivered fast enough so that I don’t sample the crap out of the dang things.
A ate a couple, I mean a few of them. Ok, ok……I’ve eaten a bucket of the things. Let me tell you, I’m now paying the price. My workout today practically killed me. I haven’t been this lethargic since before I started the P90X workouts 3 months ago. All this processed sugar sucks!
I’ve been riding the bike religiously over the last couple of months with the exception of 2 weeks ago when we were traveling and I can put a good hour in without really even feeling it.
I barely got into it 30 minutes today and my legs just gave up on me. I went to lift weights afterwards and they felt at least twice as heavy as normal.
The rest of these cookies better get delivered tonight or I won’t be able to get out of bed tomorrow. I have never had this much incentive to not eat this junk anymore. I don’t want to feel like this ever again. I have got to remember how I’m feeling right now the next time I’m tempted to eat a bunch of sugary crap.
Tomorrow will be all about healthy foods and balance. I’ll get my Shakeolgy Protein Shake in the morning and eat some fruit. I’ll eat my 5 – 6 small meals and get myself feeling “normal” again.
I’ve said for a long time that it’s not enough to just work out doing my bike riding and P90X, but that I have to eat wisely as well. I’ve really done a pretty good job of not eating too much garbage over the last 3 months.
Today was an exception, I had 6 of these cookies about a half hour before my workout and I was completely wasted. Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but I don’t want to take any chances.
I want to feel good again!
Does P90X Really Work?
Does P90X Really Work? © Tim Pannell Photography
A lot of my friends keep asking me…...does P90X really work? All I can tell them about is my experience. I can’t guarantee that the P90X workout will work for anyone else given that not everyone else will use it the same way I have.
Not everyone will stick to the schedule. I would say this though, anyone who truly sticks to the workouts will see results. I would love to hear from anyone that actually did the workouts and after all was said and done believed that they got zero results.
I don’t believe that that’s even a possibility. P90X workouts were designed for people that are already in pretty good shape. I am not one of those somebodies. In the past 19 years I’ve weighed as little as 185 and as much as 310 lbs.
I’m currently at 268 and have been plateaued there for a few weeks. I know that some of you might be saying that P90X says it’s designed specifically to avoid “plateauing”. So you say………….there’s proof that it doesn’t work!
Before you go thinking that it’s P90X that doesn’t work, let me assure you that in this case the “plateauing” was caused by none other than me not working.
We took a family vacation for a week and I lost most if not all of my momentum that week. I wrote a post earlier about how easy it is to do P90X if you travel. I should have clarified that post by saying “if you travel by yourself on business trips.”
We were visiting family and I did a lousy job of keeping up with it. I only did 1 workout that week if I remember correctly and went golfing twice.
I love to golf, but come on, nobody ever got ripped from golfing. Tiger has a great physique, but we all know that he didn’t get it by golfing. He trains like a lunatic in the gym.
I have no one to blame but myself for that week, but it definitely took a toll on my momentum. Thankfully, I got back into the swing of things once we got home.
The other struggle I had that week was what I was eating. I took in a lot more fatty foods than I had been eating at home and I could really feel the difference. I was pretty tired and lethargic for most of the week.
The big difference for me at this stage of having done the P90X routines for the last 3 months is that I’ve learned not to beat myself up for the days that I’m less than stellar. The past is the past, tomorrow is tomorrow. the only thing I can control, is what I do with my life today.
For many of you that might not sound like a big deal, but let me assure you it is. In the past I would beat myself up for any missteps, and since my past is loaded with plenty of missteps you can imagine how negative my “self talk” became.
I still have 58 pounds to lose. The cool thing for me is that I KNOW that I will lose it. The other cool thing for me is that I don’t have to get down to 210 lbs. to enjoy the benefits of P90X training.
I’m already enjoying them even though I’m still overweight. I am pain free in my joints, especially my knees. That’s HUGE!!!
I have gained muscle, especially in my arms. I am noticeably stronger. My resting heart rate is lower than when I started the program. How many 268 lb. guys do you know with a resting heart rate of 58 beats a minute? Not bad, right?
The biggest eye opener for me of how much better shape I’m in was this:
I hadn’t played racquetball in over 3 months because my partner hurt his knee. Usually after that long of a layoff the first couple of days back on the court are excruciating.
After a couple of long drawn out points, I would be sucking wind so badly I couldn’t breath. Mike and I played again a few weeks back and I never once was out of breath.
Now some of you might be picturing a couple of old bald fat guys swinging their racquets like Peter Pan. It’s just 1 bald fat guy….me. You may have seen guys dogging it on the court, hitting the ball underhanded as they jog to and fro like a couple of “english gentlemen” in some kind of sick mama’s boy badminton experiment.
That’s not us! We play hard. Mike and I both hit the ball over 160 miles an hour and even though I’m big, I can move pretty quickly. Mike has close to a 48 inch vertical leap and is faster than anyone else I’ve ever played. He played collegiate volleyball, so diving on the floor to keep balls in play is pretty common stuff for him.
I have to hit absolutely perfect shots to beat him, he gets to everything….it’s infuriating! No one should be allowed to be that fast.
In any case, there was an obvious difference in my fitness level when we hit the court for the first time in 3 months. I’m impressed at how much the P90X workouts improved my overall health and fitness levels over that time period.
I did not do this program like some kind of “uber-robot”. In the past 3 months I have skipped days, I have done 1/2 the workout on some days. Some days I’ve done 2 workouts. I have not been as consistent as I intended to be, and my diet hasn’t always been spectacular, but I’ve experienced plenty of great results from P90X.
P90X really does work!
Getting Fit is Tough? – Then Wear a Cup
You Can Let Go Now Fellas © Tim Pannell Photography
I know what it’s like to be so heavy that it hurts just to get out of bed in the morning. Joints that scream and whine as I walk.
I guess being a ninja is out of the question for me. I couldn’t sneak up on anybody for an assassination attempt without my knees and ankles popping loud enough to alert an entire neighborhood.
I’m proud to say, I no longer have that problem. It’s not that I’ve lost ALL my weight. I’ve lost almost half of my goal. It’s just that all the working out, bike riding and P90X has helped strengthen my muscles which has strengthened my joints.
I wake up and get out of bed in the morning PAIN FREE. That is significant.
Ok, so what if you’re heavy. Get over it. If other people give you crap about being fat, that says more about them than it does about you. Don’t get healthy and fit because of others. Get fit and be healthy for yourself.
The judgmental looks and comments from people get old quickly and sometimes it can cause us to look for unrealistic approaches to weight loss to avoid those situations as quickly as possible.
I know it would be nice to take a magic pill that would help you lose 50 pounds overnight, but it’s just not realistic, and it’s definitely not healthy. If you’re heavy, you need a “life change” moment, not a get skinny quick scheme.
What if you only lost 2 pounds every month? That sounds like a pretty sucky goal doesn’t it? That’s hardly any weight at all, you must not be trying hard enough if that’s all you lose…….
At the end of 1 year you would have dropped 24 pounds, at the end of 2 years – 48 and the end of 3 years 72 pounds. Tell me again that 2 pounds a month is insignificant.
Here’s the cool part……..if you lose all that weight that gradually, the idea that you’ll put it back on is ridiculous. You will have been successful at changing your lifestyle.
No gimmick diets, no get skinny quick pills here, I’m talking about real change of attitude and choices and preferences. Change for life, not just for swimsuit season or somebody’s wedding.
Just resolve to start today by doing something, anything to be more active and to eat healthier foods. Don’t wait until tomorrow or next week. Do it now.
If you think it’ll be too hard, let me tell ya, it’s a lot harder to do nothing at all and progressively experience more and more pain just getting around doing your daily routines.
Think about what you will gain by eating healthier whole foods and how much more energy you’ll have for things that are important to you if you spend even just 30 minutes a day with a fairly intense workout.
In reality, getting fit isn’t that tough unless we insist on making it difficult. I know what I’m talking about here because I’ve done just that for over a decade. I made things overly complicated to justify my lack of action.
Make some healthy choices about the food that you will no longer eat. Make some healthy choices about the kind of exercise that you ARE going to do continuously and commit to it for life.
At least commit to a lifelong journey towards a healthier you. You can change things up as your weight changes or other circumstances change. Just don’t settle for doing nothing because you think it’s hard. If it’s tough…….wear a cup!
P90X Weight Loss – Get Back On That Bike Dude!
P90X / Biking © Tim Pannell Photography
We just got back from taking my 16 yr. old son to Lacrosse Camp up in Utah and I am anxious to get back in the workout saddle so to speak.
I wrote a couple of weeks ago about how easy it is to do P90X workouts on the road. That post was aimed more at business travel and staying in hotels. I never really tried doing P90X while visiting friends and family.
Let me just say this, it’s a completely different animal. I struggled with working out this last week. It was hands down the worst week I’ve had since starting out on my program. I feel like I lost an entire week.
I did a lousy job of keeping up with my workouts when we were away. I did a series of P90X shoulders and arms with my wife sometime in the middle of the week and the rest of the time I just kept getting sidetracked with other issues.
I got to play golf with my sister a couple of times and that was fun in spite of me playing the worst I’ve played in at least 5 years. Man did I suck!
I’m starting a new photography blog and that consumed me for most of the week as well. I’m teaching people how to shoot better photos of their kids. The website is just in it’s infancy, but check it out if you get a chance and you’re interested in photography. http://photomommies.com
In any case, I’m home now and I’ll be doing P90X chest and back and riding the bike this morning to get things started up again.
The old me would be beating myself up right now for not having worked out consistently all of last week, even though it was nice to get to see family and spend some time with them.
The new me sees the past as the past and today as the present. I can’t change last week, but I can make good choices today. If you’re struggling with weight issues like I do chances are you can get easily derailed from your workout goals.
It’s all too easy to just throw in the towel and give up when things don’t work the way I hope. This is always a major crossroads in my life. What I do in these situations will ultimately show what I’m made of.
I have a choice to give up completely and wallow in self doubt and pity or I can pick myself up and learn from the past instead of dwelling on it. What can I do better, where can I improve?
I’ve been working out with P90X for the last 2 months and 3 weeks. I haven’t last the amount of weight that I’d hoped for, but I am in much better shape than I was.
I would say that my biggest problem over the previous couple of months is that I haven’t been consistent enough and that is what I will be working on this coming month.
I am guilty of letting off the gas once I made a lot of progress. I have to do a better job of keeping my fitness goals a priority and not put them on the back burner.
I know that ultimately getting my body back into good shape will have a profound effect on every other aspect in my life.
So, for now, I’m going to stop writing and I’m gonna go hop back on my bike for an hour and then I’m dropping my P90X chest and back into my DVD player and I’m gonna sweat my butt off for a while.
P90X Reviews – Weight Loss For Women
P90X for Women © Tim Pannell Photography
We talk about P90X as though it’s only for big ‘ole tough guys. That sells the workout program a little short.
Will P90X work for women? For anyone who has ever done or followed a P90X Workout DVD you already know that there’s always a woman on the program, and they all kick butt.
I know that for many women there is a fear of bulking up too much and looking un-feminine from lifting weights. As with all things in life, it really depends on what your goal is. There are women out there that have created enormous physiques for themselves, to the point where most people find it gross.
P90X is not designed with that in mind. It’s purpose isn’t just about losing weight.
It’s goal is for people to get fit and lean. By building muscle, the body naturally uses more energy, aka calories. As your body adjusts to the workouts and the healthier diet you’ll see your body fat % shrink and your lean muscle mass increase. Your arms and shoulders will have greater definition, legs will get more toned and tummy muscles will tighten.
Take a look at the women on the DVD, they actually represent a variety of different sizes and shapes, but they’re all fit.
My wife usually works out at the gym, but we were on a family trip recently and while we were gone she did some of the P90X workouts with me and really enjoyed them. I really enjoyed working out with her.
We did P90X Shoulders and Arms first, followed by plyometrics. She kicked my butt at plyometrics. I still struggle with this set of exercises because of my knees, but I am getting better and better at it.
We had such a good time doing them together that we’re continuing the mutual workouts at home. She keeps me focused and on track on the days that my attitude isn’t as good as it could be.
P90X training can benefit just about anyone that is trying to get back into shape. I realize that it’s marketed for people that are already in fair to moderate shape, but speaking as a guy that’s still 55 lbs. overweight, it’s been great for me as well.
You can go at your own pace, from moderate to really intense and the DVDs always have someone doing lighter weights and more reps. So, for any women that are considering P90X and unsure about whether or not it’ll be too intense for you, I wouldn’t waste my time worrying about it.
My wife says that the workouts she’s done with me seem to be a bit easier than what she does at the gym. I guess that sounds like P90X heresy, but that’s her experience.
She does however like the workouts and it is nice to be doing them together instead of by myself. So whether your a guy or a girl or a couple, P90X will work for you. Just be sure to check with your doctor before you start if you have any questionable health risks or concerns.
