    Default P90X - Taking America By Storm

    http://www.beachbody.com/jump.jsp?it...RY&path=1,2,21

    Hard work but the results are amazing. Everyone is talking about it in the USA - transform your body in 90 days.

    I have friends on this program and the difference is amazing - one of them lost 32llbs and 28% body fat in 8 weeks - BUT it aint easy you have to work your ASS off

    Its been tested on groups for the last year now - before and after shots are unbelievable.

    When my ribs are fixed ( I broke em) im gonna go for this and will do a video / picture diary

    I'm not denying it works but approximately £100 for this seems quite steep. Advice on routines and nutrition are always free if you know who to ask. I'm sceptical about people losing so much weight too quickly. For one it's dangerous and you generally put it back on again. Weight lost slowly is better as it generally stays off.

    so basically it's just a work out scheme?

    And one that includes taking weight loss seriously and putting a lot of effort in?

    Hmm, doesn't seem that innovating

    I have the same beliefs too.... back in the day when I was under educated towards these kind of things I'd have said "yes that looks cool I'll give it a go" and then expect to look amazing in 6 months..lol... when in reality it takes allot longer.

    each to thier own though! If you try this and works then fair play for making the time and effort to try it!...

    it is pretty innovative - the workouts are hardcore and highly educational. it mixes in everything including yoga and has been proven to increase mass and weight loss faster than any other system out there currently.

    its free on NG so take a look

    When you've had a chance to look through them, could you let me know whether any other equipment is needed?

    Sounds good to me but I can't afford any gear

    I grabbed these too, very minimal equipment from what I have seen, Dumbells or stretching rope tubes.

    Have to say the guy is a little american, hyper happy but looks like decent workouts.

    However its a hard schedule

    Just been watching the first one, not for the faint hearted or the unfit. Looks effective but punishing.

    I've downloaded the full lot. I've had a look but can't see exactly in what order I'm meant to do all the workouts etc. Also it said that in dvd 10 is the Back, Biceps and ABS ripper but I can't see the Abs ripper. On the website it said Abs Ripper is DVD 12!! I'm confused but I'm also tired so I'll have another look through it tomorrow.

    Thanks Rap for the heads up

    Reviving an old thread here - any of you guys had any luck with this?

    I've recently downloaded it off NG, I normally don't bother with things like this, but thought what the hell at the last it will shock my body by offering a new routine.

    I tried the Plyometrics vid to see if it was actually any good, and fuck me its one hell of a workout! V impressed!! I'm on a cutting stage atm, and looking to maintain/keep building muscle still whilst toning up, so could be the perfect time to try it.

    Not sure how effective the muscle training vids are, but I'm gonna give it a try, I'll stick to it for 90 days and see what results I get.

    I'm missing a couple though. Anyone got 12) Ab Ripper X and 5) Legs & back?

    Also, 3) Shoulders & Arms seems to be damaged so that would be appreciated too.


    If anyone else is interested in this, its on NGs minus the couple of vids I mentioned above.
