I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised with how engaged Tony (host) keeps me throughout the videos.<\/p>\n<p>So far, I feel great. \u00a0I am doing more pushups and pullups than I ever imagined and overall, I feel stronger and energized. \u00a0The only video I struggled with was Yoga X. \u00a0This has always been a weakness for me so I wasn&#8217;t surprised but I&#8217;m definitely determined to get better. \u00a0It feels really good to mix up my workout for a few weeks. \u00a0I&#8217;m even picking up a couple of new favorite exercises that I will add to my own arsenal, as well as teach. Nik has already lost weight and feels stronger. \u00a0We both joked that we can already see new muscle definition but I&#8217;m pretty sure we are just seeing shadows! I love trying to push myself on each exercise. \u00a0Sometimes when I&#8217;m in the gym, I reach my number and stop even if I could go further just because I&#8217;m in a routine. \u00a0I&#8217;ve really been pushing myself on these videos and I&#8217;m finding that the next day, I&#8217;m not nearly as sore as I thought I would be. \u00a0Point being that even though I work out hard and always in my target heart rate, I can still improve and challenge myself with new exercises, limits and some friendly competition. \u00a0I would strongly recommend doing this or any other challenge with a competitive friend because then you know you won&#8217;t skip out! The other day, I worked out at midnight because I didn&#8217;t want to be a day behind &#8211; that would not have been the case if we weren&#8217;t in this bet!<\/p>\n<p>Although I&#8217;m enjoying the P90X series, I still say that if you can commit yourself 60-90 minutes EVERY DAY to working out &#8211; you will see results.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"p90x challenge p90x review workout\" href=\"http:\/\/www.withamymac.com\/news\/2010\/01\/15\/p90x-beginning\/\">Catch Up: P90X Challenge &#8211; The Beginning<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Purchase P90X on Amazon:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B000TG8D6I?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wamwithamymac-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000TG8D6I\">P90X Extreme Home Fitness Workout Program &#8211; 13 DVDs, Nutrition Guide, Exercise Planner<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=wamwithamymac-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B000TG8D6I\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><a title=\"health and fitness tips\" href=\"http:\/\/www.withamymac.com\">WithAmyMac.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I have no affiliation\/sponsorship, etc with BeachBody and P90X.
