About Me...

I consider myself an average 33 year old guy who is married with two young kids. I work full-time during the day so my plan is to start my workouts no later than 5:30am. I know this is not going to be easy but I am determined to get in the best shape of my life!

    P90X Recovery Drink

    Don’t let the name fool you, this recovery drink can be taken after any extreme workout!

    If you want I can struggle to explain how the Biological Value (BV) scale of measurement is used to determine what percentage of a given nutrient source is being utilized by the body…or I can just explain in layman’s term.

    You basically damage your muscles when you engage in extreme cardio type strength training exercises like P90X and Insanity. After a workout, your body begins a process that breaks down your muscles. It does this because most of your stored fuel (glycogen) was used during the actual workout. A post-workout drink with carbs and whey protein stops the breakdown process and stimulates muscle repair and growth…it’s very important to suck this drink down within 60 minutes of your workout.

    I highly recommend the P90x Recover Drink as it was developed with the perfect balance of proteins and carbohydrates which will give you optimal muscle repair and growth. It contains vitamins and other antioxidants to prevent muscle soreness and also replenishes your energy and glycogen stores.

    Another reason to take the P90X Recovery Drink is that it contains the top 3 supplements for gaining lean muscle and strength (protein, glutamine, and creatine)!

    BeachBody gives you two options when buying the recovery drink and also offers FREE shipping:

      fightFAT: Chris - My P90X MASS routine would be perfect for you. To be honest, I thought I was going to bulk up more (physically) but it did not work out that way. What ended up happening was an increase in lean muscle. This makes sense but I also saw a significant increase with my strength. Again, my goal was to bulk up but I did not consume enough calories to make it happen. At the time, I just finished P90X doubles where I lost 27lbs so I was a bit hesitant on eating too much as I did not want to gain the weight back I just lost. Oddly enough, I have no desire to bulk up anymore…I have the same goal as you, building lean muscle. If I wasn't going to be training for my upcoming triathlons, I would be doing P90X MASS myself. I have received tons of emails claiming how effective it has been for different people. Good Luck

      Chris: Hey, I just found this blog and am looking for some solid, experienced, advice. I have two rounds of P90X down and am on my final week of Insanity. Now I want to put on some lean mass and I've been considering either P90X Mass or more of a 5x5 plan. I'm trying to comb through your blog for results of your Mass circuit and can't find it. Do you have any before/after information (or other info) to help me pick a workout to do next? Thanks, C

      fightFAT: Following P90X with Insanity is very impressive, good for you. I would definitely bring over Ab Ripper X if you are up for it. I initially thought that myself but never followed through with it. Good luck

      Matt: Hey dude, I had a question for you. I'm wrapping up round 2 of P90X in a few weeks and starting Insanity right after. I'm really loving my upper body after P90X and I've decided I'm going to keep doing the resistance workouts from Days 1 and 3 of the week along with Insanity. My question is, what are your thoughts on bringing ab ripper with me too? I know Insanity doesn't have too much resistance work, but I know it has a lot of ab stuff which is why I'm wondering. Congrats on the progress man, and thanks for the info! -Matt

      fightFAT: There is no harm in hitting pause and/or taking breaks so my recommendation is to stick with insanity. As you continue to workout, you will not only see improvement but eventually be able to keep up with the video.
