How much resistance do they provide? I'm in Week 7 and the dumbbells I have only go up to 30 lbs, and I can only use 20 lbs for them if I use two at once. They would be totally inadequate if I wasn't weak as hell
I started back in december on winter break and I was about 210, I'm at 200 now with probably about 5 lbs of muscle added.. I was at 240 on June 26th when I started eating better and exercising. I think my results would be better if I had stuck to doing every aspect of the program; I hurt my knee so I don't do any of the lower body routines anymore because I don't really wanna risk it. On Plyo/leg days I just run on the treadmill until my knee starts acting up or do Kenpo.
Also there are some days where I really don't have even an hour to spare so I've had to scramble the days around some weeks. I know this isn't ideal but I tried the program a couple times before and stuck to it religiously and then when I would miss a few days I'd stop altogether; also with my schedule I wasn't able to handle the workouts and my work. There are some weeks where I might only get 3-4 hrs of sleep a night on average and I would just get way too exhausted. At worst I'm doing 4 days out of the week, which is better than nothing. I can't believe I can make it through the ab work out now; when I started the first week I couldn't even do the first 25 reps of the first exercise

Day 2 done. Plyo was crazy, I took constant breaks.
Is that normal? Combination of being out of shape/asthma?
I nearly threw up doing Plyo.I feel great after 3 days though. Looking forward to some rest later this week, as my body is hurting.

I wanted to bulk up a bit, so I've been doing a LOT of protein (at least 200 grams/day). Salads and pasta as well. Mostly milk and water to drink, but I still do juice from time to time.

I cut out all pop recently, only drink water, green tea (if I am feeling a sweet tooth, ill add raw honey) and skim milk. (in cereal, and smoothies) and the weight just seems to be falling off now. dropped 17 lbs this past month. oh and hardly no working out or cardio, because I was hurt, and also snowed in. Now that I am able to get back into the gym, going to be nice to see more weight drop off with my chance in diet, along with working out consitantly.

Seriously that plyo is non stop. I'm also out of shape, and have asthma. If it gets overwhelming just hit the pause button. Don't kill urself

I didnt even try it to tell you the truth...
Got a question about dvd quality... Is it blurry for everyone or is just the copy I got?

sup guys, just bought the p90x box set. i watched the intro disc and of course as we all kno they gaurantee you'll be "ripped" in 90 days. which you might be IF you are already pretty slim from the jump. (if you ask me, half those people on the intro-disc didnt even need this workout) but my question is: if i finish the 90 day program and im not "ripped" or even close to it for that matter, what should i do then?

I don't know about the technicalities of the guarantee but if you're serious about improving your fitness, don't set unrealistic dates. Dedication and patience pays dividends.

I finished INSANITY a couple of weeks ago and am will be doing day 4 of P90X.
The yoga was a beast, but Insanity really has my flexibility up to speed.
I'm surprised that the workouts don't seem as difficult since the pace is so much slower than what I'm used to.
I love the Ab RipperX
I hope that I start seeing results after I'm done with week 2.

well you will be losing a lot of fat anyways
the fatter you are the more rounds of p90x u will need
I guarantee that you will be ripped after your third round of p90x
you can also switch to insanity right after you finish p90x

thanks for the responses people.
also wanted to kno is it vital for my success to stick to the meal plan that they provide or will it be enough to just "eat right" on my own?

I just started this and I am on day 3. I still can't complete the whole workout yet but i'm hoping to be able to keep up by week 2.
