On my computer at home, my downloads take between 6 and 8 hours. They have timed out in the past. If i do it at Uni, it takes about 30 minutes max. Thus, it's not unusual...I don't know how to speed it up though...sorry! :) Hope you enjoy your workout though :) xxx

I agree, Cathe's cardio is superior... but Tony's weight workouts are EXCELLENT. The weight workouts are really what makes P90X what it is. The cardio was only ever 'suplementary' to the main system, in my opinion. Don't return it until you try the weights workouts. Try Chest and Back, and then...

Hey :) I am in the UK, so I can't get it on Netflix :) But thanks anyway :)

How does this compare to Cathe's MMA dvds in terms of intensity? I have read reviews of MMA saying they're not intense enough... but I LOVE the MMAs. With weighted gloves and concentration, I find I can get a really good workout with them. I have read reviews of Amy's Rumble, and some say the...

Just curious: How many of you have done the 6x a week rotation and done each disc twice? So each mesocycle for four weeks, but with each disc twice a week? And how many have just done two weeks of each mesocylce? Is two weeks enough? It's nearly time for me to start my rotation! Sooo exciting...

Thanks for all the help. I think I will try to cut out the evening cardio sessions and replace them with yoga of some sort. I guess it's a matter of working out more efficiently, rather than more often! So I think cutting down on my cardio and upping the yoga and relaxation is worth -at least- a...

I have only just found this thread. This looks amazing...just what I'm looking for! Can I check something please?... When you say 6 times a week...would your week during meso 1 look like this?: Mon: Chest, Shoulders and Biceps Tuesday: BAck and Triceps Wednesday: Legs Thursday: Chest...

Thanks for your reply Clare :) I agree completely... I do think that the amount of cardio has been excessive. But I enjoy it, and it's the only time I blow off steam :) But this is why I am not trying to decrease it. The issue I am having is that I can't get my head around how decreasing the...

I currently do 30-45 minutes of cardio everyday in the morning. I also do an additional 2 1 hour cardio workouts in the evenings. Every other evening I am doing weights - bar one, where I do yoga. I have read in lots of places that as much cardio as I am doing is too much -or at least, not...

Thanks for the reply. I DO have that bar, but my problem is that the door has to be open to use it. That's no good for me when I'm at university. I have now found some handles that you attach over the door, with the door closed. it sounds perfect! However, I can't find anywhere that makes them...

I absolutely LOVE mine :) I agree that it's hard to put the bags back in... but it's not impossible. I just LOVE how they make kickboxing more challenging :) They are my favourite pieces of equipment! I take them EVERYWHERE with me :)

Hello everyone, I have a pull-up bar at home that hooks over the door frame. I use it by hanging outside of my door, with the door open. When I'm at university, I want to be able to keep up with my pull ups. The problem is that I am not allowed to screw anything onto the walls/ceiling and I...

Thanks Geomom :) That is similar to what I was thinking :) However, I was going to use the phase 1 upper body workouts with meso 1, the phase 2 with meso 2, and wasnt sure what to use alongside meso 3. However, I like your idea of alternating weeks of sts and p90x. As for the cardio, I agree...I...

Hello everyone! I know I could post this in the Rotations forum, but I thought it may get more replies here. I was wondering if anyone has put together/considered a rotation that combines P90x with STS? I haeve complete STS three times and nearly completed my first round of P90x. I have to...

BEWARE I bought insanity off ebay and two of the dvds didn't work at all - the chapters were in the wrong order :( I then saw that Charlene Extreme was really cheap on Amazon market place, but I was a bit unsure after last time, and emailed the seller, and asked for some form of assurance that...

Thanks for all the responses. I DO have STS....I have done it three times, and did see amazing results...but more in my strength than my definition exactly...although for the first time I DO have biceps ;) Which meso in particular do you find was best for the definition?

I have recently completed Asylum, and LOVED it. I loved the results, and the workouts. However, I was concerned that I'd lost some strength, so I have recently been doing more weights. I have not done asylum or insanity for three weeks, but have been doing a lot of cardio. Anyway, my strength...

You got it in one! It makes me stronger, happier, and therefore a better person :)

It's lovely to see just how much we all have in common. I totally agree with all of you that have said that it makes you feel good! It's amazing what being strong can do for you...being told 'wow, you can lift that?' makes me beam :) I'm really enjoying reading all your responses

I LOVE your number 1 4 and 5 in particular :) I think number 4 really shows how exercise is both selfish (in that I find it indulgent) and also VERY selfLESS :) These responses are very interesting! xx
