I was going to start week 9 of P90X3 but now I have a painful ear infection and unable to work out. Prior to that, I sprained my toe (3 weeks ago) and I could barely walk let alone work out. I was on and off since then. Can I restart the whole program from the beginning?

Hi Jonathan! Love the blog it has been very helpful and its great to read other peoples results as I am about to start!

Doing the fitness test this evening then starting on Day 1 of 90 tomorrow!

Could I run my diet plan (made up from the nutrition guide) by you and see what you think? Either post it here or email it to you?

Thanks a lot!

I’m starting p90x Saturday! I just completed a half marathon last October and I wanted to challenge myself with something different! Plus I want to see muscles somewhere else besides my legs! I’m excited!

Thank you for all the great advice! My only question to you is, i’m on week two. I already have a extremely physical job. Not having too much prob with any of the program, I do not follow their diet plan. I already eat probably 90% organic food’s and six to seven smaller meal’s a day. Just eating like this has been great, so much more energy. The P90 I do to round out my body. My upper body is very strong, my leg’s, not as much. Getting to my question, do I have to change my diet to what they recommend, or can I stick with what and how ive been eating? The only change I have made was adding recovery shake’s. Thank you for any help, I like your positivity, it’s very motivational!!!

I couldn’t even finish the first 2 days at all. I feel like I’m going to vomit food from 6 years ago everytime I do it. And it kills me. Everytime. What do I do

Hi Jonathan. I just purchased P90X and am looking forward to getting started. I’ve watched all of you 5 videos. They were very helpful. I’ve joined Team Beachbody and calculated my calories for the day. (very helpful) I’ve been working out for a while now with very little results. So I have to find out what’s wrong. I think I’m not pushing myself hard enough. So here’s to amping it up a bit. I like the way you respond to everyone. Thanks for your helpful hints and tips. Here’s to a better me!!

I purchased P90X for my fiance and I to do together, thinking we would motivate each other but he hasn’t really been in “work out mode” I guess you can say. I am on the third day of week 3 and wasn’t able to work out yesterday because of a fever/cold. I am starting to see some results in my stomach muscles, but that’s it. I figured I would at least see a little difference by now in my clothes. I was curious so I took my measurements again today to compare them to the ones prior to starting P90X and I my measurements have either not changed in certain areas or gotten a little bigger (1/2″ to 1″). I just dont understand. Since I am trying to keep myself motivated since I’m having little help from the fiance, it is getting harder especially seeing the results that I have at this point. I can’t follow the nutrition guide completely because but I stay as close as I can and I have also cut back on my portions. Any suggestions? I can really use some motivation right now.

My wife purchased the P90X for both of us to do. Still waiting for it to come in the mail. I’m turning 50 and I’m about 100 lbs overweight. I really want to do this thing and eventually get ripped, but I’m afraid that I will end up getting hurt because I’m so f@#$ing fat. Is this really a good program for old fat dudes?

I am in the middle of week 5 of P90X, this has been an awsome program. I have lost 12.5 lbs.from 187 to 174.5, I lost 2.75 inches of my waist, and gained 1/2 inch on both arms and chest. It has helped to motivate me seeing everyone else have the same challenges and triumphs. I still struggle with understanding the whole nutrition plan, but I keep working at it.Keep pushing play, and bringing it.
