P90X is a lot different than just lifting normal weights and the cardio huh? I was also surprised in the beginning. You’ll find out how much Yoga makes you better at the rest of the moves the more you do it. Its normal to not be able to do as much as the people on the dvd. They did an entire round of P90X before starting. Focus on your form and stick with it. The meal plans make a difference so stick with it. Add Shakeology from the Beachbody Store to simplify things.

Just started P90X this week. I’m 48 years old. I need to lose some weight and gain endurance. I’m pretty strong – been lifting and doing cardio (Mostly eliptical) for a good while. This is kicking my butt! I struggle to complet the workouts. I’m hoping it gets better. Wasn’t a big fan of the yoga and am wondering about Kenpo. Plus – the Ab Ripper X – I swear, I can’t do a tenth of what they do on the DVD. Am I different than most folks, that I can’t keep up?

I borrowed P90X from a friend and do not know which order to do the exircises in. I just finished kenpo x and I have to admit, although it was difficult at times, I feel so much better and refreshed even though I’m covered in sweat. Can you tell me which ones I’m supposed to do and on what days?

@ Brian

Don’t skip Yoga X. It works on all of the small muscles that the other P90X workouts do not. I add 5 push ups to each vinyasa when doing Yoga X. That’s over 100 push ups during the routine. Do sprints after Plyometrics or P90X Legs and Back.

@ JO

Insanity is a tough workout and it might not be the best thing to get started with. I would recommend you do Power 90. It is still challenging but does not go at the fast pace of Insanity. You can check it out in the Beachbody Store.

@ Nate

Give Kenpo a try and see how you like it. It might be not as advanced as you are use too and if its not then substitute Cardio X or Core Synergistics instead. If you are already in the Phase 3 plan of the meal plan then thats where you want to stay. You need the extra carbs for the energy.

Hey…I just started P90x a few days ago and now I’m on the Kenpo X portion of it. I used to be in Taekwondo, so I have done alot of counltess kicks and punches and other various types of body strikes.
I’m just wondering if I should do this workout, or If I should replace it with another?

Also wondering about the diet plan..I dont know if there is another section on this website for the diet plan…But from the way I figured it out to be is, I am on Phase 1, type II….When does this change? Do I change the phase I am on, or do I change from Phase 1, 2 and 3 with the 3 phases of P90x? (Meaning the first 4 weeks, I am Phase 1 Diet….weeks 4-8 I am Phase II Diet…and phaste 8-12, I am Phase III Diet.) – Is that how it works?

Thanks
