HyperTek · 07-14-2009, 11:23 AM

Picked up some stretch bands @ walmart yesterday. ordered some creatine last night... gettin a deep tissue massage tonight *benefits of mom having a day spa lol*. was gonna start yesterday but didnt have time.

The included excel spreadsheet is awesome, you can input your start date and it gives you a chart of which workout to do, keep track of your notes etc.

dumbbells
chin up bar/resistance bands
chair
yoga mat (not really)

-edit-
oh yeah and they say to have one of those little watch heart rate monitor things... but i don't think you really NEED it. just good to have so you can monitor your heart rate. and you need supplements and stuff.... but i just listed some of the basic things.

BustedS13 · 07-14-2009, 01:20 PM

who decided it was cool to do chinups in a doorway? from a handyman shitbox homeowner standpoint, relying on the door TRIM to hold your weight seems retarded.

HyperTek · 07-14-2009, 01:38 PM

^use resistance straps around a tree branch or something high lol, maybe jam it inbetween a door lol.

you can use the straps instead of dumb bells , and you dont need a push up bar, but it helps..

i have everything.. jus dunno where im gonna work out because of cramped space. might jus work outside lol

Twinchy · 07-14-2009, 02:33 PM

I have limited space in my home too plus im on the second floor so most of that aerobic stuff seem like that would make alot of noise if I did try it.
I still need to get some resistance bands or dumbbells for home too but I do have a little gym at my work that I would be able to do the workouts only thing is there is no chin up bar at the gym but there is a lat pull down machine maybe I can substitute that for the chin up bar maybe I have at my work. Only down fall for the gym I have at my work is that other people use it too and I don’t want them seeing me watching my laptop and doing the p90x workout haha

hegamiz · 07-14-2009, 05:07 PM

it was an ass kicker yesterday... tried so hard to do it completely, no half ass workout.
it's a good thing i had my supplements or else i don't think i'd finish, and i'd be sore as hell right now hahaha

plyometrics today

if you can make it through the first 3 weeks you should be good

u dont hang on the trim, u go by the leverage. i had my doubts, but my friends and i all swear by the iron gym now.

DreamN · 07-14-2009, 05:19 PM

iron gym? this thing?

gmember240 · 07-14-2009, 05:23 PM

TBH if you're already lean I wouldn't use P90X. Its quite high-rep/aerobic; better for fat burning IMO. Get to the gym for strength building/size

iHeartTheTouge · 07-14-2009, 05:40 PM

this thread has convinced me P90X is not bullshit. downloading it tonight.

i got my nephew one of these to help since he lives in an apartment and needs to train for h.s. football and i weigh 160as of now and it holds up really well! you can also use this to increase height when doing push ups and im sure there are many other excercises that can be accomplished with this
i think they sell them at savon,longs drugs, walgreens for cheap

coww-cho!!!!! · 07-14-2009, 11:56 PM

i found a review for the iron gym EXTREME and it claims to hold up to 300 pounds
and looks similar to the p90x one

I just feel for my pulse then count the beats for 10 seconds. Multiply by 6. That is your heartrate in BPM.

DrftSLowHomIe!! · 07-16-2009, 03:11 PM

Make sure you guys are writin your notes so you can compare from 1st day to 30-60-90th day

HyperTek · 07-16-2009, 08:05 PM

ok i picked up an iron gym xtreme today @ big 5, $39. regular iron gym was $29. figured i might use the extra handle points. I was skeptical at first but wow it rocks. lol

MrBrightSide · 07-17-2009, 09:17 AM

just finalized all files last night.... im going hard with this after my summer school session ends this week. Im a lightweight at 140lbs right now and would like to get to 150-155lbs of pure mass once im done with this

druthafoo · 07-17-2009, 09:49 AM

so I havent started yet.. I will be on sunday but I was at my friends apt and they were doing the yoga workout so I joined them just to try it out

fuck me sideways... yoga is difficult as hell

logik23 · 07-17-2009, 10:11 AM

If anyone wants to give this a try, but doesn't for one of the following reasons:
-no money
-to intense of a workout
-not enough time

You can try 10 Minute Trainer.

I got P90X last year, but never really did it cause I never had the time to do the full hour and it was way to intense, I threw up a bunch of times and ended up just losing interest. lol

Anyways, 10 Minute Trainer is 3 10 minute workouts a day, 6 days a week and all you need is a workout rubber band thing.

Anyways, after 1 month, I dropped 5 pounds, 2% body fat, gained 1 inch on my arms and lost 1 inch on my waist. It's a lot less intense, but still works. It's a great way to ease yourself into P90X.

DrftSLowHomIe!! · 07-17-2009, 10:23 AM

^^^ i know man i was fuck yoga i hate it lol but you need it, so who did start this on monday??
