Good! 30 pounds during Shoulders and Arms and this is your first time doing P90X? That’s impressive, so great job!

Maybe try getting some flavored water, or even if all else some soda that has 0 calories, 0 carbs, etc.? Even though the diet soda still isn’t good for you, it’s probably a better option then M & M’s! :-) Do your best and forget the rest during yoga!

I definitely feel soreness from yesterday’s plyo – it feels great! Just finished shoulders & arms, my arms are shot from that exercise. I was surprised to find myself lifting 30lbs through the first 3 shoulder exercises (on the repeat rounds, too!). I’m going to be sore all over tomorrow, I hope yoga x doesn’t kick me too hard… I’ll do my best (and forget the rest), though.
I was really craving a cola earlier, but I got a glass of water instead. That actually worked for a few hours… to settle my craving I did something a little drastic, I got a handful of M&M’s. Perhaps I’ll plug in the treadmill later as some sort of punishment..
Alright, on to Ab Ripper to complete today’s initial goal!

I tried p90x about a year ago and quit 2 weeks later and i think that gave me an idea of the program exercises. Im doing just the basics for now, not pushing to hard, even did plyo with the modified way so i couls keep up with fuel. Good thing is that after the warmup and stretch i dindt feel much pain so i made all the exercises without even pushing to failure and that makes me happy.my goal is to mantain the same weight and just get ripped. im taking supplements as c4, to get a boost for the workout and a recovery drink for after workout. I feel pretty great today and less sore than yesterday (at least i can work normally jaja) and eager to have my yoga x tonight :)

In reply to Edy. CONGRATS for starting P90X! It sounds like you got a great workout :-), but you may have pushed yourself a little too hard. Don't be afraid to hold back a little bit over the first few weeks so you can start learning your limits. You don't want to push yourself too hard so that you're so sore you can't do the workouts (or worse yet, injure yourself). The P90X Recovery Drink was a life saver for me in getting through those first few weeks. What kind of goals are you trying to accomplish with P90X Edy?

i finished my day 3 of p90x and i have to tell you something, i wasnt able to get up this morning to go to work; i couldn’t walk without bending (i was walking like a duck). It was really painful, and if you add that my arms were really sore for day 1 you can imagine how bad i was. I thought about giving myself a rest day because it was hurting too much. After visiting some websites i found out that its normal and had to keep pushing play and i did :) i feel so great about it and im pretty sure i can finish the program without skipping any workout. As i am cooling down the sorrness is coming back so im back in pain till my warm up and stretch tomorrow. I hate it…but i love it!!! :)

In reply to Melissa. CONGRATS Melissa for committing to P90X! Yea you will be VERY sore over the next few weeks as you go through the P90X workouts. As you'll hear Tony Horton say a lot, just do your best and forget the rest! Really take that to heart. What kind or results are you trying to get with P90X? My wife and I have Yoga X today as well! Go through the entire DVD and do what you can. Keep me updated on your progress with P90X!
