There’s a few guys at work doing this thing. They get kind of obsessed over it, though.
I thought it was a new gun thread....Now I’m suffering a huge let down.
I’m on the Hollywood cookie diet myself.
I was considering getting this. I sure would like some testimonials. I’m willing to give 100% on getting in shape. I already walk and jog, but feel like I need to do “more.”
I prefer Kettlebells. I engage all major muscle groups and maintain a strong core. My weight is stable, heart rate and blood pressure are great and strength is in the upper 20 percentile for 25 year olds. I passed my 25th birthdate many years ago..
As noted in another thread ... there are risks involved.
I’ve been doing it for a week on a low carb diet. I’ve dropped 5 lbs. so far and my arm muscles are a lot stronger. The exercises alone don’t seem that stressful, but at the 40 minute mark, you’re praying for a break.
Why can’t people just live happy, while getting older, heavier, uglier, and eventually die?(it’s GOING to happen)
I find the near obsession with ‘working out’ and physical fitness to be just silly in most cases. I can understand it with those that have health problems due to out of control weight gain or other health issues, but other than that, I just don’t see the point in it.
I’m in my early 30s, and weigh the same as I did when I graduated from high school. I’ve NEVER given a thought to what I eat, and haven’t worked out the first time. On the other hand, I know a guy that worked out since high school, had a good diet, and he got fat anyway after his mid-20s. Of course, both cases are just anecdotal, but I really wonder how much difference “physical fitness” makes. Could it be that our body is gonna do what it’s gonna do?
Having said all of that, the old cliche still applies....Eat right, stay fit, and die anyway....
I bought the DVDs and equipment in August but haven’t gotten around to starting the program yet. I hung the pull up bar over my den door and it ripped right through the sheetrock, so I need to drill it into a stud then I’ll be good to go.
I’m meeting with my doctor for a checkup next week and will ask him if he thinks I could do it (I have no doubts that I can, just being cautious).
A few years ago I did the Body for Life workout and it was excellent. The only problem is that now I don’t have room to set up my weights and P90X requires less room than Body for Life.
I don’t have a lot of time right now, due to a lot of overtime at work, but am looking forward to finally giving this thing a try.
Any Freepers still doing the P90X exercise regimen?
I was hoping it was a new variant.
