P90X Results – Day 56 Pictures and Measurements
Okay, I am not trying to sell myself short but there is no chance my body fat percentage is 6%, it’s definitely higher. What is accurate is the fact it dropped 12% though. I lost 2 pounds since day 42 and trimmed an additional inch off my waist so I am happy with those results.
My arms measured 1/4 inch smaller (when compared to day 28 & 42) so I can’t say I am thrilled about that. I did do “doubles” this past month and it’s very difficult to build muscle when you are doing a lot of cardio. I am going to decide tonight whether or not to do “doubles” in phase 3…which starts tomorrow. If I do, I will most likely start having a protein shake right before bedtime, your muscles do all of their growing when you are sleeping and think of a protein shake as food for your muscles. I held off from having a nighttime shake up until this point because I did not want to consume those extra calories that come with it but my arms measuring 1/4 inch smaller is a reason to start it.
Here are my Day 56 measurements:
Body fat % – 6% (Day 1 – 18%)
Weight – 202 lbs (Day 1 – 220lbs)
Chest – 42″ (Day 1 – 40″)
Waist – 36 (Day 1 -391/2″)
Right thigh – 25″ (Day 1 -271/2″)
Left thigh – 25″ (Day 1 -271/2″)
Right arm – 16 1/2″ (Day 1 -16″)
Left arm – 16 1/2″ (Day 1 -16″)

Thanks Morgan, are you currently doing P90X…or thinking about it?

I’ve been seeing the p90x info / commercials for a while and am very interested. Your site is by far the best / most complete one out there on this system. One question:
I travel (a lot) for work and wanted to know if I could burn the dvd to my ipod to have with me on the road.
Do you think this would this be possible? (obviously, there are some workouts that cannot be done in hotel rooms)

Yes, you should be able to convert the dvds to a mpeg4 format…which is compatible with the ipod.
You could do the kenpo, yoga, and plyometric workouts in your hotel room without a problem. The other resistance training programs may need to be done at the hotel gym.
