P90X Lean Reviews: Day 0 Getting to know you

Hello everybody! My name is Jen. Some of you might know me from my husband’s adventure with the P90X Classic series. I have been known to jump in on the occassional workout here and there. He just finished up 90 days of bringing it and is resting well before starting P90X PLUS. If you guys want to see how his 90 days went you can check out his blogs, pics, and videos at www.90dayreview.com. So after watching my husband go through this and seeing the amazing results (I highly recommend you check out his pictures, just remeber he’s taken LOL) I decided to give this a shot. I was worried about doing the P90X Classic though. Lots of strength training there. I noticed that P90X offered another program called P90X Lean. This sounds perfect for any woman or someone not looking to bulk up. It consists of 2 days of strength training (as opposed to 3 in the classic), Cardio X (as opposed to Plyometrics), Yoga X, and Kenpo X. So I am thinking this is the workout for me! But before I start this 90 day journey of sweat and tears I figured you guys want to know a little more about me.

I am a 26 year old, happily married,  mother of a 5 and 7 year old. I was a stay at home mom for 5 years but have recently gone back to work/school. Tomorrow I graduate from my CNA training program and will be working as a CNA for the next 2 years. I absolutely love what I do!!! In January I will be taking my entrance exam into nursing school and will spend the next 2 years learning everything I can. Also, my husband and I will be renewing our wedding vows this June. We never had the big wedding the first time. Not that it mattered, as long as we got to say “I do” and the people we loved were there. Well now we have been through all the typical ups and downs of life and marriage and we came out on the other side still wanting to be together. That’s not something most couples can say today. So I figure there is cause for celebration. This time it will be a little different, but the important things are all that really matter. So needless to say…….I have a wedding dress to fit into come June!!! As you can see from my photos I am not horribly out of shape. However, I do have the desire to be more toned and defined. This workout is the key to my success in that department. Not only does it offer 6 days of quality training, it also has a nutirion guide. That’s where I generally falter. So here’s goes nothing guys. Wish me luck!!!!

  3. GOod job and Good Luck! my boyfriend and I just started the P90X workout and LOVE it!! We are both doing the Classic because he is recovering from an injury and I am trying to bulk up a little. (maybe later on I will switch to Lean). I’m 5’9” 125 so trying to get my muscle weight. Plyometrics kills me though!! But good luck to you and perhaps ill keep you updated on how I am going as well.
