Power 90 ?

You may need a few days break if you get real sore or like the video says just push play and go through the motions. That 2-4 can be a killer if your head is not ready. Take your time with it. How is it going and what day are you on? Bev and I are getting ready for PX90.

Day 15. We definitely do not need a break. We didn't workout two days in a row due to our trip and we could tell it last night when we did work out. Of course we are still feeling the effects of all of the lifting and hauling we did while on vacation. We had to take a huge kayak to a friend's yesterday and I swear if I have to climb up the side of that @##%@ Discovery with a kayak ONE MORE TIME I'm going to come unglued. That could be a workout video in itself.

I'm not ready to step up yet as the pushups are not all there. I'm working with a friend who is a trainer on some modified pushups to help build up one shoulder that was injured long ago and still gives me problems.

Yesterday I did the fat burning workout nice and easy in the morning just to get all stretched out and moving. We did the 1-2 circuit last night and it was good.
I HATE resistance bands. We are going out to buy a second set of weights today so we don't have to keep taking turns with those things. I don't feel like I get the right form and they really hurt my shoulder on the back scratchers and swimmer's press.

Good luck with P90X and keep posting on that one. I'd be really interested in your progress.

This thread is being stalked!!!! I've heard that a tall, lanky fella is keeping up with our workouts. I think I'll have to arm wrestle him at the end of this!
Any rumor that there will ever be before and after photos posted is completely unfounded. But there will be photos from the finish line at the Coosa River Challenge in October!

So what do you do when you are done and in the best shape of your life?

I know from experience that you can get good, quick results from something like this. I was in great shape about 18 months ago (for me, anyway, and I slowly slipped backwards ... gained about 12 pounds back, got kinda soft, ate too much).

I'm turning it around before I get too much out of hand. I've been in the gym and am seeing some good results. But after the 90 days when you look ripped like Hulk, how do you keep it up? Doesn't your body get used to the workouts? Can you maintain that way or do you have to constantly mix it up?

Mr. TFT is a triathlete so he has no problem with maintenance. Me, I just get kinda bored and thus slip back. I want to do better this time.

Kudos to all of you, by the way.

I am in awe of everyone's dedication. When I hear power 90, I think it means a 90 minute nap.

I think when you do something for 90 days it changes the way you view things on a day to day basis. After my first 90 day program I found it hard to slip back into my old ways. I maintained by doing other videos and at least working out 4 days a week. When I do these videos, I typically get complete body workouts in 45 minutes or less. When I go to the gym, I talk to people, do not get a complete workout and waste about 2 hours. I have nothing against the gyms but like to get in and get my workouts over with. They become part of my every day life not an extra that I can do without. This is not an option.

We are getting ready to start a PX90 program and would consider possibly two joining us. It will be another 90 days of extreme workouts. I would like to do this next level around 6:30am at my home in Point Washington. If you ever wanted to change your body for the better, this will work. Guaranteed! Any biters?

TFT for me personally, Power90 is a launching pad to rebuild the muscle and endurance I have lost and lose the pounds I have gained.. I ran and cycled for years, lifted weights with a buddy too. Injuries, moving, "my life" were allowed to get in the way and now I need to get back into shape so that I can do my favorite things (running/cycling) again.. During the 90 days I'm doing other things too. After I will probably continue on to P90x in addition to training for more races.

BobbyJ, I'm not ready for p90x yet but hope to catch up with you guys by late fall. Maybe our lurker will step up and join you though

OK, I took the plunge. I'll let you know how it goes in a few months

Thanks guys.

In a few months? Let us know daily! I am getting ready for the P90X plunge! Argh. You will hear me ***** daily! Promise.

Question....

Hubby and I are looking into doing this. We need a program we can do together and just aren't always flexible enough to get to a gym. Is the program really adaptable to beginners?

I say YES, Power 90 is absolutely perfect for beginners. We have three beginners here who have picked it up and progressed well. Even our 11 year old has been giving it a try. My sister, who has a personal trainer, did the cardio with me. At first she was making comments about it being too easy and "this is just yoga, this is just kick boxing, this is just....oh hey, this is a good workout!" You can go as hard or as easy you want. Go slow until you learn the moves and then start kicking butt.

Ok, guys! I'm joining the ranks...

After talking to Bobby a few times about his experience, and following this thread, ya'll have got me convinced. Got my package today. I'm going to read everything before I start because, well, that's just the way I do things. So I'm thinking I'll start Saturday. Wish me luck!

Woo Hoo Kitster!!!!! You go girl! MamaD is right behind you.

Just ordered power90......

This is pretty cool! Bev is looking to do this again with a group. Any takers?

I feel like the Christmas Story kid waiting for his Little Orphan Annie decoder...c'mon mr mailman, bring me my power 90 package

I see that 5-7 days is the only option. Have you waited longer than that?

I looked in several stores in ATL that sell DVDs. No one has it. I guess I ought to just go ahead and order it.

Gotta look good in the photos at daughter's engagement party, all of the other parties, and in the wedding and reception photos. They will be extra special since the reception is at our home.

I hope you aren't as disappointed as Ralphie was....Go drink your Ovaltine!

But don't shoot your eye out!

I want to do it. . . but I never seem to complete these things. . . and 90 days seems like a big committment. I think I'll hit weight watchers and sign up for a race at the end of August. . . but I hope everyone will keep posting about it. Maybe it will motivate me. . .

Since my first 90 days, I have completed the program probably 4 separate times. It really is and has been life changing for me. Something about the way the program is put together makes the 90 days flow. Since completing my first 90 days I have probably not gone a whole week without working out at least 4 days a week. I typically do 5 -6 days no matter what. I really believe the 90 days trains your brain as well. It lays a new foundation that once you complete is hard to break away from. The key: Do the whole 90 days. Take the pictures. Use the calendar. Eat from the Micah ladder top two tiers. If you can not do all of this do not buy the videos.

My power90 will arrive August 7 or sooner!!!!!!

Kitlit starts her tomorrow.
