The P90X is unreal. And I have only done the Plyo part of it. I used it to get in shape for a hike in Yosemite last year and it helped like no other. I have been looking to get into it full time and joining this group just may be the trick. It will be good for my health, hockey and longevity.....
I have been active during my diabetic tenure, 30 years, and youre right.. the P90X still kicked my @$$!!

Type 1, Start P90 X on Monday 10/19/09. Have been exercising for years and am in pretty good shape. Trying P90x due to heavy weights irritating shoulder, elbow joints. Body Fat around 15%, weight 164, height 6'. I think I will try the nutrition advised. This concerns me as they advise the usual 6x per day small meals within caloric guideline. Generally for me, exercise will raise bg, especially with weights. I would not normally eat with a bg of 200+ which would happen on weight days. Cardio will bring bg down so that is not a problem. Did anybody get shredded (visible abs) on p90x following their nutrition plan ?
