The P90x Nutrition Plan is centered on a powerful 13-week physical fitness program, combined with healthy eating habits, guaranteed to help you lose weight and regain the confidence in having a firm, toned body. We found in our p90x Review that the emphasis is on the importance of regular exercise to increase stamina and build muscle to replace excess weight. Carl Diekler and his company have developed a super program in the p90x Nutrition Plan that really revs up your metabolism for fast weight loss to burn away those unwanted calories.

12 Exercise Videos
Our p90x Review focuses on the essential elements of the p90x Nutrition Plan including the intense daily workouts and what to expect from p90x. Tony Horton, a professional trainer, provides serious motivation in the 12 videos that are included in the p90x Nutrition Plan. Each p90x video focuses on improving various parts of the body from chest, back, and biceps to legs and abs. Stretching, yoga, and cool down are all important features of these hour long workouts – no easy thing for beginners or the out of shape – but it does get easier as your body adjusts to the requirements in p90x.
Another important point we’d like to make in our p90x Review is that there are no special meal packages to buy – a definite advantage for many. High protein and low fat foods are recommended in the p90x Nutrition Plan, as are more frequent consumption of smaller meals. The p90X emphasizes that most foods can be obtained from your local grocery stores. This is a long-term method of losing weight and one that anyone, at any age, should be able to follow. It is essential, however, to stay with p90x for 90 days to get the full benefits of fat burning, strength and endurance buildup, and to establish a foundation of good eating habits – all of which can be accomplished through considerable time and effort. Although nutritional supplements are mentioned as advisable, this p90x Review does not cover the benefits or provide recommendations for specific products to buy.
Muscle Confusion
One of the reasons why the P90x is so effective is muscle confusion. The workouts are intense and are designed to work each body part daily. After month 1 you are introduced to a new set of exercises so your body doesn’t plateau. This is the reason most of the other exercises fail.
The p90x can be your own personal training and nutrition plan with online support, meal planning, a calendar to mark your progress, and other p90x Reviews and success stories to provide inspiration along the way. The complete p90x set of DVDs, nutrition guide, and detailed guidance can be purchased online. Endorsed by medical professionals, personal trainers, body builders, and just ordinary people, this is an effective fitness program that you can do at home. We considered too in our p90x Review the appeal and practicality of not having to travel to a gym or purchase expensive equipment, although a heart rate monitor and a yoga mat are probably worth considering.
Finally...
We can summarize in our p90x Review that motivation and self-discipline are the keys to success with the p90x Nutrition Plan. We would recommend the p90x if your goals are to increase muscle tone, improve your overall fitness and cardiovascular activity, and are willing to devote some serious time and energy into getting there. You can forget surgery and diet pills, and still be able to reach the desired level of less than 10% body fat through the p90x Nutrition Plan. The decision is yours; however, we hope this p90x Review has provided some information and stirred your interest in p90x.

, on 06-11-2009 20:22 Well, to put it bluntly I am fat, not obese, but fat, im 5'10" and weigh 250 and im looking to lose weight and at the same time gain muscle, because muscle burns fat.
What im wondering is, will P90X be too strenuous for a beginner?
If so what should I use first?

, on 29-10-2009 21:08 My boyfriend and I started P90X a couple weeks ago. We are both thin and in decent shape but wanted to tone up. His dad is 60 and also very healthy and active, and his mom in her early 50's. They have tried a couple of the workouts and have enjoyed them. The major difficulty would be trying not to get frustrated with yourself. Because even at 21 and 23, the workouts are pretty strenuous. I would recommend trying the "Power 90" workout from beachbody first. It is intended to be a prep program for P90X. I would say if you can do that for 90 days with no problems then it would be worth it to purchase P90X. There are several modifications if some things are difficult (such as the yoga position where you are balancing your entire weight on your elbows and hands). There are also some youtube videos of P90X so you can view some people doing the workout to see if you may be able to do the exercises without the preparation of Power90. I would youtube -- p90x chest and back, p90x legs and back, p90x plyometrics, and p90x yoga x. Those have been the most difficult thus far. Hope this helps.

The ones I have are um... kempo, cardio, yoga, ab ripper, and plyometrics. Can I still try to use this, will I get any results. I did try the ab ripper last night... couldn't keep up. Anyway, I want to tone up... I weigh 113 lbs... use to weigh 100 lb before my twins. Don't expect to ever be that small gain, but I do hope to tone up. What do you think?"
Of course you cannot try the DVD's you have however p90x is designed and built for muscle confusion. In order for this to work like intended it's very important to have the complete workout program and nutrition program. Get he complete kit you will be thankful you did. I know I am

6. BOB Written by Dennis, on 21-10-2009 11:23 Bob p90x is a great work out i'm on my 3rd week right now. You only need about an hour a day to do this. I work 12 hour shifts everyday but sunday and thursday. You have to want it and then you'll find the time. As far as being in the military and maybe not having access to tv to watch to video. right down the steps and just do it on your own. You do not need much room at all you could do it in the leaving room of your home. I suggest with your schedule and your work enviornment that you get the bands. This is all the equipment that you'll need everything they do in the videos you can do with the bands. Good luck and just remember to be the best and forget the rest BRING IT.

, on 20-10-2009 10:57 Hi, I was thinking about starting the P90X but I work every other week. It would be hard for me to do the weekly excersises but I really want to get back into the same shape I was in in the army. Wouold it still be wise for me to start this program? And if so, how much space do you need? I might be able to take it offshore with me.

, on 19-10-2009 09:21 HI, I am a 5'09" guy, weighting 150 pounds. I do not need to lose any more weight, but I would like to build some muscle on my arms, chest and stomack or tone what ever is more possible in 90 days. do you think the program would help or for my size it is not worth it? Thanks
Ban,
p90x can be used to loose fat / weight or gain weight / muscle it just depends on how you use the program. Tony H. will teach you how to add mass when doing p90x. Basically you will do lower reps with higher weights. You will also want to increase your protein intake.
Let me know if you need any other help.
Chris R.

, on 11-10-2009 08:59 Hey Denis,
You just repeat whatever you did for that week again. Just started my P90X yesterday and from my understanding, week 1-3 are repeated before you go to Week 4. And then, a new set for 5-7 and so on.

, on 10-10-2009 10:25 Dennis is spot on!
Also keep in mind the p90x nutrition guide is just a guide, when talking about the specific foods they recommend that you eat. You can eat other foods not in the book just make sure you stick to the correct portion amount that the book gives you and the correct caloric intake. You can use Fitday.com or the daily plate.com to track your caloric intake if you are needing more detailed information.
18. P90X Written by Dennis, on 09-10-2009 16:46 Just finished up my 5th day. This work out is great. I know alot of you have questions about the diet program. Myself I am a very picky eater its hard for me to follow the diet. I find myself trying to eat the right foods but i count my calories and fat that i bring in each day. Within the last week by cutting out soda and counting my callories I've lost 6 pounds already. Keep up the good work everyone if there are any questions make a post on here and somebody will get back to you.

Yes it is very possible, however it will be important to monitor your calorie intake and protein intake to make sure you are getting enough. Do you use Soy protein powder? This can help boost your protein intake to the level you will need.
Beachbody has a vegetarian, diet plan that you cn tweak a bit to make it vegan.
Also you can use fitday.com or the daily plate.com to monitor your nutrition very closely.
You should go for it!

, on 06-10-2009 09:25 So yesterday was my first day of P90x. This program is great. Like everyone else i started out with the chest and back work outs. I decided to start my new diet and work out about a week ago. Thats when i committed myself to this program. I ordered my P90x and got it yesterday. I recommend to everyone that loves soda to cut it out of your diet. Just in the last week without doing p90x i lost 4 pounds from just no drinking soda. If your like me and hate drinking water, i found that the powerade zero is great tasting and has no cal, fats, or sugar. I'm 225 5'11 and 25 year old male. The work outs are hard but stick with it. Youtube peoples results for me that was enough motivation right there. Just remember at the end of the BRING IT.
