P90X Reviews – Day 70 Pictures and Measurements
I am happy with my measurements these past two weeks…I lost another 4 pounds, cut my waist size another 1/2 inch, gained an inch on my chest, and my body fat dropped a bit. The last time I was below the 200 pound mark was freshman year in high-school!
Instead of doing two cardio-x sessions this morning, I ended up doing one core synergistics routine. At the end of the day, I pretty much burned the same amount of calories and that is the goal of doing “doubles”…burn extra calories. You could even replace cardio-x with a walk, jog, or cardio on an elliptical-type machine…do what works for you.
Also – I feel like I have to say this every time but “no chance” my body fat percentage is that low but it has dropped significantly.
Here are my Day 70 measurements:
Body fat % – 5% (Day 1 – 18%)
Weight – 198 lbs (Day 1 – 220lbs)
Chest – 43″ (Day 1 – 40″)
Waist – 351/2 (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″)

Dude, when I saw you pictures—I said to myself, this guy body structure is like mine. So, you postings has motivated me to the point that I will finish the 90 days. I see you at 70 days and the pictures get me so hype. I am like wow—if I can get some abs at 36 years old. WOW!!!!

Glad to hear I could help motivate you! Keep in mind that abs are all nutrition, ab ripper x helps too but not as much as your diet.

Thanks, Jaybird81…I have about 1900-2100 calories today. I was counting my calories during phase 1 and I consuming about 1800. I have the P90X recovery drink and usually have a whey shake at some point during the day. I was working out on an empty stomach during phase 1 and 2 but I noticed a dip in my intensity level at the end of phase 2 so I started taking a whey shake before and it’s been great.
Yes, there are tons of P90X blogs that start with skinny guys getting ripped. I have not seen too many with guys with our build…in the middle somewhere.
