P90X Good and the Bad

[luiscosta19123456]

DUDE its hard but U got two arns two legs just keep going think of summer with no shirt on !!!

[MartialArtsFC]

p90x is suppsoed to drain you!

buddy get going!

[lepricon211]

ahhh change your diet to the energy booster phase if you are crashing during your exercises to get more energy.

[seth3556r]

you need more complex carbs if your weak. the diet is like all protein, my buddy was weak.i dont do the n. plan because of it. more carbs, more energy and less sluggishness, and less shit feeling. it works.

[BRooo28]

your in your 7th week and no results?

[Deadeye990]

If you're trying to lose weight, watch the sugar on your recovery drink. Higher sugar = higher insulin = more fat stored. If you're trying to just bulk up, go for it!

[CocaColaMann]

I have the same problems.. But eating healthy foods and drinking lots of water give me the right amount of energy to finish..

but when i eat fast food any unheathy foods drink lots of soda energy drinks i get so tired through half the workout..

and sometimes end up just siting through the whole workout sleepy as poo.

[AncientHer0]

And there's no point to eating fast food while you do P90x anyways, that's more like a contradiction unless your eating Kentucky grilled chicken. they tell you to eat right for a reason. Results should be anyones motivation just keep eating right and working hard and i guarantee you'll be motivated.

[CocaColaMann]

Im the type of person that can eat whatever he wants and not gain any weight.

That might be the reason for my eatting habbits, that and my young age.

But yea i should just be eatting healthy foods and drinks in the first place.

[AncientHer0]

Same here but i still decided to eat better it WILL make you feel a lot better, I will admit dieting does kind of make food a little lame but think about it, Reward for sacrifice.

[crrogers22]

Don't lose any weight --- you're hot as you are!

[jatia2]

Thanks for posting the "badd" : )

[DrethOmega]

Try God man. That's what gets me through the whole thing. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Phil 4:13.

That and music.

[clamsandwich17]

Bomb, if you're 100 pounds overweight you shouldn't start with P90x. Wait until you're closer to 25 or 30 lbs above your target goal and already in pretty good shape. P90x is not an entry level exercise program. There is a fit test online to see if you meet the minimum fitness requirements for P90x.

Keep up the hard work

just like anything in life the 50% mark is the "hump" to get over, force a game face and power through it. Results are always more drastic at the beginning, but once the results aren't as visible it becomes harder to stay excited and energetic about things. You can do it man, keep up the hard work.

[wolfeyes2]

Hey Jeremy,

Set your own goals. There is no law saying you have to finish this in 90 days. Maybe you are pushing yourself too hard. Remember even giving 5 minutes is better than nothing.,,,,You are doing great...keep up the good work,,,,,,keep us posted

[jenxfit]

Thanks for the reality. It DOES get hard, you don't feel like bringing it every week, there a million valid excuses. Push through the tough times. You sound committed, I look froward to your next report.

[changetoday32]

Thanks Jenxfit!  still pushing plan and working hard!

[mrhydrojet]

Great video man from the heart keep kicking ass man...

[JoeCareyTM]

I had to stop being as strict with the program. It started to take up so much of my time I didnt have time for anything else. So I kinda lightened up. I now drink a few beers during the week. Heinken light, 99 calories and 6 carbs. Also I make time for my friends but I still make time for P90X. I may go from working out after work to working out in the morning. But I struggled a lot last week because I moved to a new place. Luckly it was my rest week but I did miss the whole week.

[BigPoPaJaYe]

Sup Jeremy! Are you getting at least 7 hours of sleep daily? Try having a protien shake about 2.5 hours after your breakfast meal..How many meals are you having a day..get back to me and together we will get you through this soon....Bring It

[jese81minisota]

hey dude dont worry i felt the same way when i was in week seven . i m starting week 12 tomarrow. good job

[clonze2011]

Haven't really seen this answer yet, but if you're not opposed to a caffine boost then try something along the lines of a pre workout drink that gives you that boost to keep pressing play. I've gone into many days thinking theres no possible way Ill be working out today, only to go you know what Ill try the drink then see how I feel, then 30 min later the dvd is playing and I get the best workouts Ive ever had. Things along the line as No Xplode(expensive), Fuzion, and Shock Therapy do the trick

[changetoday32]

thanks Clonze2011, i am taking Black Powder as a pre-work out drink. its pretty stout.

[black429]

I'm in my fourth week and I feel the same. I think I had more energy in the beginning. I don't think I'm doing as well now in the exercises.

[changetoday32]

keep pushing play! im finishing up week 7 and i am so glad i have been pushing through!

[buyystocks]

@black429 every few weeks you need 2-3 day break then you wil get a great workout in.

[pdilla]

Do you have good rest periods between workouts?

[changetoday32]

what do you mean? P90X is every day.

[pdilla]

Woah, what happened to my comments? lol.

Anyway, main idea:

Do you have a hectic work schedule, lack of sleep, constant overexertion, or constant stress over events, bills, blah blah blah. You know what I mean? Since there is more stress on your body and mind, you need THAT MUCH more rest.

I know you can't help that work is stressful, or family matters are irritating... just asking...

XD

[Spartigus]

Hey man I totally hear that!!! I hit some lows myself and I notice it is when I don't eat enough or drink enough water. I upped my carbs and that does work. Also I am not as strict on the weekends like I use to be with BBQs and such happening this time of year and I notice it takes until Wednesday for my energy levels to bounce back. Just gotta push through it and keep pushing play!!!!

[changetoday32]

thanks brotha! I am maybee overdoing it with the being strict thing..... i have drank a drop of alcohal sense i started, over 45 days ago. food consumption has been almost flawless. My next round i am not going to be so strict with the eating part.

[Spartigus]

I was the same way, but now I have been drinking the Miller 64s... not bad. I am a beer guy and this has the least amount of calories, carbs and all that junk.

[changetoday32]

my drink is makers and diet, so its not so much the drink that kills me, its how i feel the next day, and not being able to press play.... Keep up the good work! i cant tell you how motivating it is for the rest of us to see your great results!

[p90xtyson]

Yea looking thiner for sure! I started feeling a little worn out the second half of my first round also (not so much with the second), I think thats pretty normal. But make sure to get plenty of food, water and sleep. Especially with the suppliments you have to drink a lot more water. I noticed if I wasn't drinking enough with the black powder I started to not feel well towards the ends of workouts/abripper

[changetoday32]

thanks for the advice! i will deffinitly up my water intake!

[kades28]

Thanks for updating! Haven't seen much p90x activity on youtube in awhile, so your video was good to see (though no Padres hat).

As RSZ mentioned, you do look slimmer in the face. Sometimes it takes an outsider to see the results as we look at ourselves everyday and can be difficult to see change.

Slumps do happen...I know I have gone through them, so don't get too down about it.

Keep bringing it!

[changetoday32]

Thanks Kades28!!! I appreciate it very much! Looking forward to seeing your next vid!

[boarder12309]

[changetoday32]

[changetoday32]

[changetoday32]
