It is finally here people! The long awaited P90X2 has
finally arrived! I have received my P90X2 Ultimate Kit and have been testing
out the workouts and I must say they are awesome! It is finally time to put all
this waiting to rest and BRING IT AGAIN!
One reason I have been so excited for this to come is
because I have been doing the One On One Vol. 3 MC2 testing workouts for about
a year now and I have seen huge gains in strength and power, X2 is the
finalized version of those and I must say X2 really does work! There was tons
of science put into this program; this is not just a normal sequel to P90X this
takes home training to new levels!
So what your probably wondering what the P90X2 challenge is?
This is the biggest challenge Beachbody has ever had! Beachbody is looking for
people to feature in there new infomercial for P90X2! Here is a video of tony
talking about it.
That’s right you could be in the actual infomercial for this
revolutionary product. I myself will be documenting my journey of P0X2 and also
competing to be in the infomercial but I want to help some of you also get
infomercial spots! That
is why I have put together a challenge Group. There are some requirements to be
part of the challenge though.
Requirements to be in
the challenge and also get all my insider tips!
·
Must be part of my team (click here to join my team)
·
Must be on Shakeology HD (order here)
·
Must post and update about your journey on the
challenge Facebook group (click here to join our Ongoing Xcellence Group)

And you must be doing P90X2!
So some of you might see that Shakeology is a requirement, I
know what your probably all thinking “Shakeology is so expensive!” well for
your information Shakeology is only 4$ a serving! And it is the healthiest
thing you can put in your body every day! I take Shakeology everyday! And I
have seen great benefits from using it, and I want all the people in my
challenge group to be having the healthiest meal of the day too!

Below you can see my full plan on
how I plan to Tackle X2!
This is the note I posted on my
facebook a couple days ago.
My
Approach To P90X2
The time has finally come!!!! i have been waiting for this
program for over a year now! It is finally time to take my fitness to a whole
new level with P90X2! many of you are probably wondering how i will go through
P90X for the Next 90 Days starting on Jan. 2nd of 2012. this note is going to
explain everything i am doing so i can reach the best results possible. My diet
will be dialed in to a t for the most part, and the diet really is the most
important part!
here i will discuss with you what i am doing for my diet for
P90X2. I will not be set on a certain calorie amount for all days. some days
will be different than other and i will explain that. First i will tell you my
ratios i will be using on different days.
Calorie Amounts and Ratios depending on the day. (all ratios are
prot/carbs/fat)
Resistance Days
2300-2400 Calories ratios 40/40/20
nutrient timing- all my heavy carbs will be pre and post
workout, the rest of the day will be a primal diet.
The So Called Cardio Days (plyo pretty much lol)
2100-2200 Calories Ratios 50/30/20 or 45/30/25
nutrient timing heavy carbs early in the day, primal most of the
day (more on this later)
Yoga and Rest Days
2000-2100 Calories Ratios 50/30/20 or 45/30/25
Primal the whole day pretty much
ok so now you know calorie wise and ratio wise what I am doing
lets talk more about my diet now. i will not be following the P90X2 nutrition
guide because for one i can't afford moneywise to have that much variety in my
food choices, i wish i could but i don't so i will have a set plan of meals and
a lot of time just repeat them, I already know what works for me so the nutrition
guide does not matter to me, i know how to meet my ratios and calories without
it. here is my food diary, I track every day so anybody can follow what i eat, there’s
not a ton of variety but for me that
works- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/fausey14
now i want to explain how i will time my meals with the
workouts.
Resistance Day
wake up
do X2 Ab Ripper
Eat breakfast (around 600 calories
workout 1 1/2 hours later
1 scoop R&R formula, 1 scoop of whey following the workout
30 minutes later- have a higher carb meal
Plyo Day
wake up
eat 1 banana, 2 glasses of water
15 minutes later workout
1 scoop R&R, 1 scoop whey- following workout
30 minutes later- Breakfast of ratios (40/40/20)- rest of the
day primal nutrition
Yoga/ Rest Day
wake up
eat breakfast- ratios 40/40/20- 500-550 cals
1 hour later- yoga or recovery workout
following workout- Shakeology, 1 scoop whey, peanut butter, raw
almonds, cinnamon, and some type of fruit. (that is also lunch) the rest of the
day is primal nutrition.
Ok so now you know what my diet will consist of around my
workouts, oh and if you don't know primal nutrition you can find out more about
that here www.marksdailyapple.com. a couple notes- you probably wonder why i do
the ab workout right when i wake up and i have a couple reasons for that. first
reason is i like to work abs on an empty stomach, i don't feel bloated that
way, and also if i do it then, then i don't have to do it after the resistance
routine, instead i can have my recovery drink directly following the resistance
routine which is the one i want to replenish most importantly, remember you
only have a 1 hour window of opportunity of getting that recovery formula in to
maximize your muscle repair following a workout. I started doing abs right when
i woke up in the beginning of my 7th hybrid round and ever since then i have
stuck with it, it just works for me. Now the next thing you might ask is why do
you only use 1 scoop of R&R and i thought you were not supposed to mix it
with anything, steve edwards even said so. yea yea yea, i have heard all that
too but i found my body responds better after a workout with a ration 4-2 Prot
to carb after a workout, the normal thing people will tell you the proper ratio
after a workout is a 4-1 carb to protein, so i am doing pretty much the
opposite but hey it works for me, you have to figure out what works for you.
Ok another category now covered, now moving into the workout
schedule, below i am gonna post what i will do;
Foundation Phase (3 Weeks)
Day 1- X2 Core
