P90x

5 days into the X now, it's definitely a quality workout program. I'm glad I worked up to it, because as much as it's kicking my butt, it would be much worse if I dove in head first without having a decent baseline to start from.

Think I broke one of my toes last night though, not from the X, just stubbed the ever loving crap outta it. It's swollen and bruised up today, definitely feels broke. Just hope it doesn't hinder me too much. I think I can push through, it's just annoying type of pain, nothing major.


Damn man, that sucks. Pretty X like to push though, Awesome! Rad! INNTTTTENNNNSSE!!!!...... Poly is gonna be tough, i would think.

I hadnt touched a weight in about 10 years when i started p90x and felt soreness i didnt think was possible, espicially in my hips. Keep us updated on how it goes.

Also are you using weights or bands or both?

When you posting pics?

I'll post some pics once I'm done with this 9 month journey

Administrator porn?

Can you move it? If so, it's probably not busted.

I can move it, it's just the tip around the nail that's bruised and swollen. I can tell it's broke, if I give it a little pressure it hurts pretty good. I've broken toes and fingers before.

Administrator porn?

Is that a request?

Is that a request?

It's a fear.


Sucks about the toe, hope it doesn't derail your workouts like my currently-broken finger. :madani:

Damn, I though you cared. :(

I started P90X last year in August. I finished it sometime right before Thanksgiving and was very excited about my results. I had lost about 20 pounds of fat and had gained some muscle. It is clearly a quality workout. No big machines needed, no time spent in the gym. Just a few dumbbells, pull up bar, a tv and dvd player. Since finishing it, I have been using it as my regular workout. I change it up so as not to get too used to the workouts I'm doing. Beachbody is coming out with a new version of P90X next year, so I am psyched about that. More than likely, I'll probably be getting it. It has definitely gotten me into shape and I have, for the most part, stayed in shape. Certainly a good thing for someone who is in his mid-thirties.

I have a question. I am about to start p90x within the next couple weeks. Now I've done some pretty intense kettlebell workouts, so the intensity I'm not really worried about. However, with Kettlebell its much more lower body based, and I have a very strong base. However, my upper body strength sucks. To the point where I dont even think I can do 1 pull up, and am pretty sure I've never done one in my life... do you think with a lower upper body strength I'd be able to do p90x?

You can use a chair to help assist with pull-ups
