I finally got p90x in the mail today, and.....
Whew! I just got done doing my first p90x workouts. I've gotta say, it's definately tough...my whole body feels like its shaking!
I really liked the chest and back workout because it changes exercises often, preventing boredom. I don't have a pull up bar or dumbells yet, but I used the resistance bands in place of dumbells and attached the resistance band to a hook in the ceiling to do the pull up/chin ups. That seemed to work really well for now.
The Ab Ripper X is pretty intense as well. I wasn't able to finish all 25 reps in all but 2 of the exercises! I definately have room to grow, but I can already feel the burn! Tony's going to give me a run for my money, but I vow to "Bring It" for these next 90 days, and then some.
I'm can't wait to see what the other workouts have to offer...I can already tell that p90x is going to make me a LOT stronger.
As far as the p90x diet goes, I'm going to start tomorrow. However, I don't know if I can eat as many servings of protein as it tells me to eat. It seems like too many servings of food in general. Maybe the caloric and protein intake is based on a male nutritional standard....although I could definately be wrong. I guess I should look into that!
Howver, I ate healthy today, just too many carbs for the program. Yay for wraps and toast. :)
In closing, here's my Day 1 stats:
