Selling P90X?

you can torrent them easily.

really though. read up a good routine that includes deadlifts and squats and go to the gym and do that. fuck px90.
 
torrents would be good for the workouts. but do they include the meal-plan in the videos? it's probably on paper
 
I work out everyday at the gym i just want a little veriety

im really just interested in the plyo and yoga stuff i can do at home.
 
yeah man, P90X is for people who dont have access to a good gym (maybe you don't). what im doing right now is a pull day (bicpes and back basically), push day (chest and tris), and leg day (calfs, quads, hammys) Ive had some great gains with it and if you want PM me and ill send you the whole routine.
 
i know the torrent i got has all the text, pdf, and video files, so it's absolutely all the information you need aside from basic equipment. and to the guy that said fuck p90x have you tried it? my roommate and i have been doing it for like 30 days now and gotten awesome results. it's difficult but definitely gives results
 
as far as getting stronger and gaining muscle a lifting routine based around powerlifting lifts is far superior to p90x. thats all im saying.

 
I just typed this out, so sorry for any misspellings, etc.

After every workout, I like to work abs. I do 8 minute abs, switching exercises every 30 seconds.

Push Day:

1. 5x5 bench routine: (bench 5 reps, 5 sets, keep adding 5 lbs to the total weight each push day. When you can't complete the routine, stick with the 5x5 that you can do and afterwards, do some plateau breakers. (A. Lower the bar down for 5 seconds and explode up with your 60-70% max as many times as you can (try and get 8 reps). B. Hold the bar at apex for 5 seconds, halfway for 5 seconds, and 1 inch from chest for 5 seconds, as many times as you can (try for 8 reps). C. (not so recommended for a new lifter) plyometric bench throws. Start off with light weight and aim for 8 reps of throwing the bar a couple inches out of your hands and catching the bar on the way back down to your chest.)

2. Tricep pull downs: Go your max for 15 reps, 12 reps, 8 reps, adding 5 lbs. each time. Make sure to continue to add more weight to your original weight as the weeks go on, try not to stay at the same weight for more than four push days.

3. Dips: Do 3 sets of 10, make sure to go full 90 degrees. As the weeks go on, and this feels easy, add a weighted belt to help add more resistance.

4. Skullcrushers: Go your max for 15 reps, 12 reps and 8 reps, adding 10 lbs each time. Again, make sure you're adding more weight as much as you can.

5. Chest flys: (because of a shoulder injury, I use the chest fly machine). Again go your max for 15 reps, 12 reps, and 8 reps, adding 10 lbs each time. Ditto as the other ones.

6. Lat raises: Ditto to the 15, 12, 8. Make sure to get full range of motion.

7. Front raises: Try to complete 2 sets of 20 with the most weight you can, then add weight and complete one more set of 10.

Pull Day:

1. E-Z bar bicep curls: Most important thing is to keep the right form. Leave your ego at the door. Make sure to keep your elbows at your sides, get full extension while down and pull all the way up and pump your bicep. Do 15, 12, 8, adding 10 lbs each time.

2. Lat Pull Downs: Keep good form again, don’t rock. Do 15, 12, 8, 5 adding 10 lbs each time.

3. Weighted Rows: Do 15, 12, 8, 5 adding 10 lbs each time.

4. Hammer Curls: Similar to E-Z bar biceps, keep a lower weight than you would thing, do 15, 12, 8.

5. Inverted rows: Do to failure for 2 sets.

6. Delt raises: Do 15, 12, 8, adding 10 lbs each time.

7. Finger flicks: Flick your fingers out with them down by your side 75 times, then 75 times horizontally, 75 times straight out in front of you, and 75 times above your head. Do this twice.

Leg Day:

1. Squats (or front squats if you wish, do less weight if that’s the case): Do sets of 15, 12, 8, 5. I like to add 40 lbs to each set, to the point where I need a spotter to pull me up on the last rep.

2. Straight Legged Dead lifts: Do sets of 15, 12, 8, 5, adding 20 lbs each set, again to the point where the last rep is failure.

3. Cleans: Do sets of 15, 12, 8. Personally, I don’t do cleans because the irritate my shoulder injury, but they’re a must-have in the weight room.

4. Calf raises: Grab however much weight you are able to do. Do 10 slow with your toes pointed outwards, followed by 15 fast immediately. Same 10 slow to 15 fast with your toes straight, then same with them facing inwards. All one right after another. Do this twice.

5. Leg extensions: Adding 10 lbs each time, do 15, 12, 8.

6. Sprints: Just run sprints until you can’t walk anymore.

Cardio Day: I like to bike for 30 minute intervals, but whatever floats your boat, just make sure to do at least 30 minutes.

And then repeat!

 
nice i follow a very similar routine. do the 5x5 for most lifts. do alot of the same lifts. i just cant do dips because of a bad shoulder. i do back/arms(deadlift day) chest/shoulders(bench day), leg day(sqaut day) with a bunch of assistant exersises being 4x8.
 
hey any body know a diet plan i could go on?

ask this guy
 
P90X is good to keep you going. If I have a sheet that just says lift this or that it's hard to saty motivated through it. But you work along with the P90xers and you're like if this bitch can do it well then... 45 min later youre done.
 
if you have an ipod touch just buy iFitness. its awesome, it has a list of most exercises and how to do them and its only 2$
 
just eat A LOT. like every 3 hours a small meal with a protein(tuna, chicken breast, turkey, lean beef) and some good carbs(brown rice,whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, oatmeal). eat a lot of peanut butter. just make sure you eat a lot more calories than your burnings. eat clean. its alright a couple times a week to eat some pizza or a burger but if you do it all the time youll just get fat. you want fuel for your workouts.
 
get a huge thing of cytogain. dont take the recommended 3 servings a day though, just take one post workout and maybe one later in the day if you want to. just pack as much protein as you can into your diet, but just eating right wont put muscle on.

Also, for those people who like pre-workout drinks, i just started taking NO-shotgun, and that shit gets you intense, definitely recommended
 
did my first day of p90x today holllyyy shit, shit was INTENSE! i havent really eatin yet today and god im like shaking and feel like im going to puke.

...i thought i was in decent shape and just needed to tone up and lose a couple lbs.. i WAS WRONG.
 
I have stopped wasting my money on all these pre/post supps. I got the same gain results drinking chocolate milk after my workout as I did when I was spending $60 a tub on gainers chuckerblock full of waxy maize, BCAAs, Glutamine and all that stuff. Chocomilk has just as much protein and is much cheaper on a per use basis.

My $.02 thats all.
 
Chocolate Milk has 17 grams of protein, Nitrean has 50 grams per scoop. I think a good post workout supplement rapes Chocolate Milk.

As for P90X, the muscle confusion stuff is bullshit. Any excercise physiology class will tell you that you cannot confuse your muscles. Get on 5/3/1 or Rippetoes Starting Strength if you want to get bigger, faster and stronger. If you want to get a sweet 6 pack but still be a little bitch..then go with P90X
 
This.

Im pretty skinny and just had a knee surgery, so the doctor who did the surgery told me to drink chocolate milk whenever I do the knee rehab stuff, so i can gain muscle around the knee and some weight. Because there is a nice amount of protein in chocolatemilk.

And it tastes pretty good too.
