You might catch one late at night as you devour that leftover moo shu pork with a beer, watching TV in your underwear.

The P90X infomercial.

It's a guilt-inducing display in which a smiling 50-year-old man and several young cohorts, all rippling muscles and enthusiasm, knock out a couple of choice moves from what appears to be a scary-hard workout. That's followed by “regular” people vouching for the effectiveness of the workout, showing off their own pale, moo shu-ravaged bodies in pictures labeled “before,” and their newly rippling abs and rocky arms under “after.”

Same thing here. 34, weight the same as at 18, eat ravenously, never work out, though most assume I do. A lot of this stuff is genetic, not diet or exercise.

I bought the DVDs and equipment in August but haven’t gotten around to starting the program yet. I hung the pull up bar over my den door and it ripped right through the sheetrock, so I need to drill it into a stud then I’ll be good to go.

I’m meeting with my doctor for a checkup next week and will ask him if he thinks I could do it (I have no doubts that I can, just being cautious).

A few years ago I did the Body for Life workout and it was excellent. The only problem is that now I don’t have room to set up my weights and P90X requires less room than Body for Life.

I don’t have a lot of time right now, due to a lot of overtime at work, but am looking forward to finally giving this thing a try.

Why can’t people just live happy, while getting older, heavier, uglier, and eventually die?(it’s GOING to happen)

I am 40 maintain a healthy diet and work out 4 days a week. I have a ton of energy to...play with my kids, look attractive for the wife...the demands of my job. The list is endless.

P90X

I was hoping it was a new variant.
