P90X2 Nutrition Guide
P90X2 Nutrition Guide
So what’s up with the P90X2 Nutrition Guide? Nutrition fads may come and go, but P90X has stayed consistent for all of the 9 years since it began. Considering how effective it’s been for so many people (including myself), it’s strange that they’re even offering a new nutrition plan with P90X2. Why are they doing it? What’s new with the P90X2 Nutrition Guide? Get ready to see how this new nutrition changes the game for good.
The big picture with the P90X2 Nutrition Guide
P90X2 Nutrition
As P90X has grown, they’ve come to realize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healthy eating. What’s healthy for you might not be healthy for someone who is allergic to wheat gluten or anything else. Some people can’t stand oatmeal, and that’s totally okay. The new P90X2 Nutrition Guide has plenty of options so you can continue to eat healthy and fuel your personal fitness.
There are so many different kinds of people out there, and they all need to eat different foods. Professional athletes need a lot more calories than people who spend the majority of their day in the office. When you factor in the multitude of different health conditions facing the growing number of P90X users, it just makes sense to offer several paths to health, not just one.
Your favorite diets are changing too. In the last 9 years, the world has been introduced to new vegan foods, primal eating, and many other diets. These diets have become so popular that they needed to take the time to address them. The “P90X2 Nutrition Guide” makes sense of these dieting philosophies and shows you how to incorporate them into your own eating routine.
There are 27 different plans of attack in the P90X2 nutrition guide. Each of them is custom crafted for a certain kind of lifestyle. The idea is simple. Pick one and go.
What is going away with the P90X2 Nutrition Guide
Over the years, they’ve realized that people’s eating habits have changed quite a lot. More and more people are eating healthier each day, and P90X has contributed to some of it. That’s why they felt it’s no longer necessary to include some of the older foods that were handy for weaning you onto the system. You’re more used to eating healthy now, and the new P90X2 Nutrition Guide reflects that.
The new P90X2 Nutrition Guide has no space for fast food portion conversions, V8, and many of the more junky types of food. They wanted to include those so more people would feel comfortable getting onboard. Now that you’re already a P90X fan, and you’re already eating healthy, they don’t want to encourage you to be eating at fast food joints or indulging in salty or sweetened beverages.
The new stuff with the P90X2 Nutrition Guide
With more room for healthier items in their portion lists, they’ve added more than enough healthy choices. For each unhealthy item they’ve replaced, there are two more healthy choices. There are plenty of snacks, fats, and proteins to keep you excited about the program. Here are a few other things they’ve added:
• Beachbody recognized the importance of dietary fat. Because recent research shows how important it is to get more dietary fat, each of their three calorie levels (1,800 – 2,400 – 3,000) includes a little more of it.
• Figure out which approach works best for you. Beachbody has learned that quite a few of people don’t know which program you should be using. Should you go with “Fat Shredder 2.0” or “Energy Booster 2.0” ? If you aren’t sure, they’ve included information to help you make an informed decision.
• New designs and charts. The professional team of designers at Beachbody have created numerous charts and graphs to help you make sense of the nutrition decisions you’re making. It’s both simple and informative.
• Grain-free and vegan options. Just like I said earlier, the new P90X2 Nutrition Guide includes a number of different dieting options for different types of people. It doesn’t matter if you’re a vegan or you have a wheat gluten allergy. There’s a plan that will work for you.
• Calculate macronutrient numbers on your own. The portion lists are convenient for most people, but quite a few people prefer to calculate macronutrient numbers on their own. The P90X2 Nutrition Guide shows you how to do that.
Now that the number of P90X users has grown, Team Beachbody has decided to grow their product to reflect it. If you are a current P90X user, there’s no pressure to get P90X2. However, if you want more options, more change, and a new challenge, then go for it and get yourself rockin with P90X2 (you’ll see ME doing P90X2 in January). You’ll be happy with the results.

So, I just received P90X2 and am stoked to begin! Having completed the original p90x twice, I have really been looking forward to this evolutionary step in fitness.
But, I do have a rather simple question on the nutrition plan. Do the calorie totals count per portion or per recipe?
For instance, on page 68 we have the delicious Cocoa Beef and Mushroom Salad which states “Serves two portions” with a calorie count of 197.
Is it 197 calories per portion? Or is it 197 calories per meal, thus two portions?
As this might be very clear, I have never followed a scripted diet in my life :)
Thanks for the help!

CONGRATS for getting P90X2!
What kind of results did you get with P90X?
I personally haven’t tried any of the recipes yet (hope to this week though), but it looks like it’s 197 calories per portion. I’m a HORRIBLE cook so the stuff I make is SUPER simple, but wife is the cook and she likes to make the more elaborate recipes.
Great job for committing to follow the nutrition. It’s JUST as important as your P90X2 workouts.
Thanks!
P90X was great. I built up a ton of strength, cranking out up to 20 pullups at a time, regained the ability to dunk, and grew solid lats and arms. All in all, awesome results.
Afterwards, I picked up Insanity and though I really enjoyed it I unfortunately tore my right meniscus so had to shelve the program.
Since then, I have jumped from TRX, to repeated rounds of P90X to whatever. Having just completed the first week of P90X2, I found it to have a somewhat easier start up phase than P90X. Of course, this will change when I move into the second phase, but so far so good. :)
Nice! Congrats on the results! Just give the first phase of P90X2 a few weeks. Once you get the moves down, you’ll find that it gets harder and harder! :-) KEEP pushing play buddy!
