Is there some kind of scientific thing to this or is it just lifting, high intensity, cardio and diet? Because it seems to me that most just need a routine put together for them. Doesn't seem all that "new" to me.

ive never used it but i think its just a very well put together circuit training regiment and a good diet.
not many people know a proper diet or know how to actually train right...these dvd's take care of all that in your living room.

This is it right there. But it also switches up the routine for muscle confusions. A lot of people plateau (like I did) and this takes plateuing out of the equasion. Plust I can do it in my livingrooom with some dumbells and a pull up bar. Makes it super convienent.
And I her the Plyometrics are brutal. Im doing the Ab Ripper X when i get home lol

I found that it was nothing new to me either. So I took what I could from it and introduced it to my workout. But for a person with a set ambitious goal like the OP or a person just getting started. It is worth its weight in gold for the education alone. And it actually works.
Keep us posted on your progress.

All I can say is that if you work to get the weight off then you have to make a lifestyle change to keep it off. If you go back to that regular old shit before you lost the weight then you're going to gain all that weight back AND MORE.

Good for you man. Eat right and do some running during the week and you will reach ur goals. P90x is a badass workout. I did it at the fire academy. [ July 27, 2009, 10:54 PM: Message edited by: WildFire532FB ]

Well did Plyometrcs today and its pretty much the most absurd, rediculous workout ive ever done in my life - hard to walk
If you dont know what Plyo is look it up - i thought it was gonna be easy, but turns out to be the hardest workout they have...

How's this going for you? I'm starting Monday.
I personally just downloaded all the videos, calenders, meal plan, etc. via torrent and then bought weights & chin up bar.
I know, I'm a cheap bastard. lol

try blending 2 bananas, a few frozen strawberries, a cup or 2 of orange juice and some TASTELESS (tasteless is the key, buy it at costco) protein. it tastes like jamba juice and helps with soreness in the mornings. also makes a pretty damn good breakfast
