P90X




I want it! Too many sleepless nights spent watching infomercials you ask? Not in this case. In this case, the infomercial makes NOT want to buy it. I really don't want to be "ripped" and I have no interest in the "diet" part of the whole thing.

Actually, Coach Michael has been raving about P90X for weeks. Supposedly it's amazing cross-training, very runner-friendly (or adaptable to be such), and uses limited non-house-cluttering equipment. Apparently, it's also really hard. Christina G. tried the ab workout and could barely stand up straight for a week.

But I still want it! As you may know, I do have a tendency to buy such things and...never use them. Which is why I'm trying to convince Luis it get it. Since he's a coach, it's a tax right-off. But Luis also has been known to make impulsive purchases then not use them as well (have I mentioned he bought the Perfect Pushup - and used it once?).

So what to do? Any feedback? Any reader reviews? Comments please!

P.S. I do have some self-restraint. I still haven't bought the new Garmin, even though I still reeaalllly want it.

It looks good BUT... an hour a day? That seems like a lot. I'm a fan of Turbulence Training myself - 20-30 minutes of weights 3x/week. I wouldn't say I'm as ripped as those people in the P90X ad, but then, I also still spend a lot of time with Ben & Jerry.

Of course, if you do get it... we'll expect a FULL review, WITH before & after pics!
