Exactly what I was looking for to complement my P90X mission. Running isn’t my thing and starting with a nice modest routine will help make this more enjoyable and easier to commit to over the long run….no pun intended..lol |

Had to revise my plan, starting in March in northern Michigan was a BAD idea, May sounds more reasonable. |

Actually I have to agree. I was just getting ready to go out and realized when I took the first step… If I run now I’m gonna slip! Better do other workout until the ice and snow has melted. :( I have scheduled it to start 1st of April, then it should be spring! I will reschedule if spring comes earlier and I really hope it does! Could however get stabilizers and run even in snow/ice… |

Same here, AFinTraining. I just started P90X and I will use this to help with more cardio. Are you doing the classic routine or the lean? |

I’m going to start in the gym on the treadmill, then move to outdoors once the weather gets warmer :-) |

I decided to start both programs at once and am warming up with P90 UML, hopefully that will get me ready for The X and it will be a smoother transition to the cardio aspect as well…the risk of injury running in the winter conditions isn’t worth it either .. |

It’s still chilly here in Oregon too. I figure that my dogs will like the additional exercise— anyone else walking and running with their pets? |

Well. I’ve got no excuses; the weather here in Mesa is perfect for running — clear and in the upper 60’s to low 70’s. Don’t be too jelous though, by June its in the triple digits. |

I started going to the gym in early January, I lost 7 lbs. I’m burning about 700 to 800 calories, 4 days a week. The problem I have is I love food and I can hardly follow a diet favorable. |

I have been P90X (Lean) followed up by 30-45 min of cardio for 3 weeks now. Not really losing a lot of weight (down about 6 pounds) but I am losing inches and am definitely getting stronger. This plan though will help keep me on track and better track my workouts. |
