    Intensity results are in!

    WOW! I am completely surprised at these results. Firstly, I can't believe some of these w/o's weren't in the 600 calorie range. Secondly, I can't believe the IMAXes weren't higher calorie burners. Thirdly, I can't believe KenpoX is so high - especially over PlyoX. I'm sort of late to the...

    Xers ~~~ Tuesday ~~~

    Good Morning Everyone, First off, a big apology for falling off the chat board wagon. I went through Round 1 of P90x with a lot of you and towards the last week just fell off the face of the planet. I've read some posts during the last few days and am extremely happy to see all of you doing...

    A Basic Vegetarian cookbook

    Been a veggie for about 10+ years. Hands down the BEST of the BEST are the Moosewood Cookbook and The Enchanted Broccoli Forest by Mollie Katzen. Although there are some involved recipes in the cookbook, its my go-to cookbook for staples. Great marinara sauce, pesto, bread dough....yum yum...

    Do you ever just need a break?

    I also take breaks. Not very long one's (maybe 3-4 days max), but usually it's when my body tells me I just can't do it anymore. I actually tend to loose a few pounds when I take breaks. My stomach (internally) shrinks, I don't eat as much because I'm not using up a lot of calories, and my...

    X'ers:~~Wednesday~~

    Hey ladies, Yes, Traci, I AM so close to DBX I could taste it in my Kashi Go Lean Crunch this morning! Tonight is Yoga. So, I'm hooked on Kest because it's only an hour and adding on Yoga Belly 7 only adds about 8 minutes, so I think that's what I'll do tonight. I'll be at work until about...

    X'ers - ~~Tuesday~~

    Morning All, Core Syn last night went alright. My HR really fluctuates on that one. I always feel like I'm working to fatigue, then I check my HR and it's only between 150-160. I must admit, all those Superman Bananas in Cardio X have been great practice for giving gusto to Core Syn. When...

    X'ers.... Monday 2/5

    Good Morning Ladies, Didn't get to check in at the end of last week because of work, but thought I'd post quick today. Glad to hear all the P90x rotations and post rotations are going well. I've been looking into buying a comprehensive weight lifting book to put together my own rotation...

    X'ers ..... Thursday * Feb 1

    Guess Tracy and I were posting at the same time 'cause I didn't get to read her FABULOUS leg w/o until after my post was up. Tracy, are you saying you did jump squats AND mary katherines with weight???? How impressive! I think I may write down that leg w/o 'cause it seems great! Way to get...

    X'ers ..... Thursday * Feb 1

    First and foremost, CONGRATS TO TRACI! To be done... wow, I can't wait. Next week is recovery, then that's it for me. I'm so proud of all of us. Enjoy Core Syn for the last time. That's definitely a challenging w/o and I can't imagine what it's like to be starting it for the last time and...

    Xers.......** WEDNESDAY**

    Debra, LOL... "Dreya's moaning techniques". You're so right on. All I have to say to you is "Where do you feel those.... BOOTY!" Thanks for the advice on the heavy lifting. Traci, thanks for posting the rotation. Can't wait to check it out. Monica, I think Debra mainly answered my...

    Xers.......** WEDNESDAY**

    Hi Everyone, Sorry I didn't get to the board yesterday. Workload is OVERLOAD! Yes, I brought it for MY LAST plyo on Monday. Although I usual dread my weeknight workouts, and was dreading plyo just the same, I can't beat the feeling afterward. Also, plyo always starts off for me so slow...

    X'ers .....MONDAY

    Good Morning Ladies! Not much to say this morning but that the roads were HORRIBLE and I really hope they're better for my commute home. Plyo tonight. Last time, last time, last time, last time (at least for a while). Traci, just for you, I'll make sure to bring it on the Rock Star Hops...

    X'ers........Sunday

    Thanks for the input Tracy. Although I hope you don't feel that dreaded "credit card remorse" I sometimes feel, I'm glad that I can at least identify with someone else on never knowing if what I buy is good. At least we both made a smooth move by purchasing P90x like the rest of the ladies on...

    X'ers........Sunday

    Hey Everyone, I usually don't post on weekends because I just don't get the computer time (DH loves his message boards on the weekends), but I'm just so excited about finishing a DVD that I had to get on. Now I know how Tracy and Traci feel. My final, FINAL time with Chest, Tris, and...

    X'ers......TGIF

    TGIF ladies! So much to comment on, so I think I'll just have to make some general comments this morning. Man, you ladies have some energy! About getting used to P90x... For me, who's only done Firm and Cathe-type lifting, this program has gotten progressively harder as the weeks have...

    X'ers ......Thursday!

    Lea, just a question on the protien cakes (they sound delicious)... I understand the vanilla extract, but have you ever done banana? How much do you usually use? Is the "batter" runny or really thick - what consistency should I go for? Got this GREAT honey roasted PB (organic and all...

    X'ers ......Thursday!

    Hey Ladies! Yoga X last night. Awwww... sweet relaxation. I must've been pushing hard on those lunges because I was sweatin' up a storm by the time it got to Warrior 3. Question... how low does everyone go in their lunges? I don't really have a good mirror set up, but I think I'm lower...

    X'ers .....Wednesday

    Hey Everyone, Back & Bis and ARX last night. I really brought it. My hr was up to about 150 bpm during a few of the bi exercises. Upped some of my reps and did the crouching cohen curls with 15s (per Traci's suggestion). My goal was 12, but i think I could've done more. Will up it next...

    X'ers...TUESDAY

    Sandra - just a quick answer to your Dreya Roll question... I don't know if this is right, but I spread my feet a little wider than they do. It almost looks like they have their feet together when they come up. I think I'll probably graduate to that. There is some momentum involved, but I...

    X'ers...TUESDAY

    Hello Ladies! No time to write really, just checking in and subscribing to the post. Did Plyo last night. Traci, I thought of you when I did ONLY 4 sets of Rock Star Hops (double timers included). I scanned through the post quick - did you get Plyo in today? Quick note for all of...
