*The Official P90x Progress/Motivation Thread*

I had to take a week off due to a nasty cold/flu. It was very hard to start back up this weekend....

Hey guys,

Im updating my P90x Results. Week 6 of round two.

vladdy328 · 03-18-2011, 03:31 PM

This is me 140 days ago:

Good results...looks like you leaned up a bit!
I am starting week 4 tomorrow! On a side note since I play soccer I have substituted some plyo/cardio/kenpo days for my soccer days...if a soccer night falls on a leg workout night I skip the legs but still do the AbRipperX (ugh...). Last night played 3 hours on an outdoor FutSal court here in Victory Base Baghdad....needless to say the after-effects of 3 hours pounding up and down a concrete court was was worse than any of the workouts I have done so far on p90x!

vladdy328 - Keep getting after it. Traps and abs are starting to come out nicely. Looks like you are doing pretty well on the diet/nutrition side. The ~6 month pics so some nice hard work! You should consider getting P90xPlus. It turns up the intensity just a bit. And gives you a nice core ab workout that you can bring in with abRipper for some really nice overall work. Just something to consider. Either way, keep getting after it. It looks like it's working out great for you!

Now, more pics of the girl to your left!

Question: For the days of ab ripper X. Is cool to do ab ripper X first then continue with the workout after?

-=Hot|Ice=- · 03-22-2011, 07:37 PM

That's what I do. I feel exhausted after the 45 min workout so my form is off when doing ab ripper. Decided it was better to do that first instead.

You see any improvements?

Week 3 and I've lost 5 pounds. Abs are starting to slowly define themselves. Form is everything, and if you can't keep proper form, then you might as well just not do it. You'll be working the wrong muscles. That's my take on it, at least.

I'm now 5'8 and 150 pounds.

Fack Vladdy, you're an inspiration!!!

adrean8j · 03-30-2011, 02:36 PM

I have had to take the last 1.5 weeks off/hiatus due to travel within Iraq and my location changed....still getting my cardio workout in (not to mention a pretty good leg workout)...I try to fit in some push-ups and some pull-ups during the day as well. Hope to get back into the swing of things within the next few days....

Nice!!! I'll probably start my next round sometime mid May when I get off of graveyard from work

I'm gonna have a lot of questions, so be prepared Haha Keep up the good work

McMuffin · 04-15-2011, 11:19 AM

Vladdy, how you holding up?

bhoch · 04-15-2011, 12:14 PM

Sunday start s P90X Plus round for me. Should be a lot of fun. I did change it up a bit from the "normal" though as I wanted to keep the legs and back day from P90X in it. Next three weeks should be a blast.

adrean8j · 04-15-2011, 02:23 PM

I have had to modify my P90x routine due to constraints at my location (in Iraq at the moment)....so on my cardio days (plyo, yoga, kenpo) I am either playing 2 hours of basketball (plenty of plyo there) or 2 hours of soccer...with at least 15-20 minutes of stretching before each. I hope this will suffice until I can get to a place where I can perform the cardio routines without disturbing the neighbor in the CHU(container housing unit) next to me. Fortunately I have downloaded the other workouts to my ipod touch and just put in some headphones when I go to the gym and do whatever Tony is yelling or screeching at me to do....LOL
