P90X Tips and advice! Do's and Don'ts

February 24,2010
This is my second round of p90x, the first time I could not finish due to time constraints.
This has allowed me to be able to constrast what I feel works better in relation to my training.

Currently I'm on week 7, and the stomach is finally starting to peel back. If you have any specific questions you want to know about feel free to ask. Also check out the blog at

I will be giving advice on fasting, p90x and other misc topics I feel are worth talking about.

Thanks man, liked your video for you. Me and my brother just started this up, to begin with we are just cutting out junk food and trying to eat low fat foods with additional protein and eventually when we can afford it make our diet better. Good to know about the pull up bars, we need them and have started to just do with it in week one.

Tbh Yoga was the hardest for me, I'll be honest, week one i didn't stick it. Any tips on that?

@profitfever Everything gets better just stay consistent. If you put in work results will come. Seriously though, the diet is going to make your results show. Abs are made in the kitchen. I'm still learning whether we really need a high protein diet but definitely try to avoid the fat.

I feel you Brody I've traveled the country and yes New Orleans has some good food and you right between NYC and NO food is great!!! I'm out in California now miss the southern and east coast cookin!!!! And I just started P90x how long before you see some results i know everyones body is different but just a question Brody?

@1977Brehon I wasn't really on supplements and i didn't follow the beachbody diet plan to the t but I think about day 30 you start really seeing a noticeable difference. From 30 to 60 it starts to kick up a notch also. For most people your not going to see the television 90 day transformation they advertise but it is possible if you are really strict on diet and stay consistent. Good luck man! Might be good your not on the east coast so that food won't tempt ya.

@MotivationToGive umm im 15 years old in high school sophmore year, and i was wondering if this would work for me. Im really skinny and have a fast metabolism,also i really wannt to do this so i could get better at basketball

[MotivationToGive]

@puffdaddyasd Will it work for you!? Yes, but with your fast metabolism you will have to eat a lot in order to gain weight. Not really sure how much you weigh or how tall you are but I would really just let the weight come on its own. P90x, and Insanity will greatly help you with your conditioning. Air Alert will help you with your hops. Practice on your ball handling skills! Try to become proficient with both hands, and your j. Those are the things that will help you stand apart. Good luck

My wife and are are about to get started on P90X when we FINALLY get our kitchen finished after this 19month remodel (a LOT of eating out). I like what you said about using up the clock how ever you have to (girl pushups).

When we get started I'll take that tip with me to the mat.

[puffdaddyasd]

@MotivationToGive ok so i'm 6 ft pretty tall and really skinny. so u saying that fiirst i should try an get big, or in shape, then later work on my hops for b ball

great tips, but by far the best thing you said was dont be prideful. how many times were you able to knock out 30 pushups in the first round, but by the end you could barely do one.. same thing with the pull up bar. use the chair if you have to towards the end
