Today was a solid P90X workout for me. I was challenged but I didn’t struggle or feel the need to skimp on reps or dog it. I added weight on the calf raises and went lower on lunges. Of course, I made sure to have eaten properly before hand so I didn’t run out of energy.
I want to make sure that people realize how important your eating is to success during the P90X workouts. On Monday I did not eat enough and did not have the energy to complete the workout. I have found that eating about 1 1/2 hours before the workout is ideal, and then to eat immediately after. You will stay strong and also not feel full.
By the way, it is getting hard for me to watch Tony Horton flirt with Dreya Weber on the DVDs. Dreya Weber, as I found out from the behind the scene P90X youtube videos, is a professional aerialist. She also appears on at least 2 of the workouts so far. Every time he introduces her he says how beautiful and gorgeous she is, to the point where you feel a little awkward, like he does not give the other people as much attention. And in one of the DVDs he even goes and give her a big hug during the ballistic cool down. Either way its sort of funny to watch all that going on when you are trying to workout. I think I am getting to the point where I can turn off the Commentary. The great thing is that the P90X lets you pick what type of audio you want, music on/off, commentary on/off, etc.

Haha, I totally agree. I think he is pretty good friends with her and her husband though. Her husband does the music for the videos. But yeah, he has a crush for sure.
I’m glad you talked about the eating, I was going to ask how that is going. Keep up the good work!
Haha, I thought I was the only one that got that “crushing” vibe. It’s kind of funny, but also a bit awkward b/c I had to see it everytime I worked out to the DVDs!
Great idea for a website, btw. I’m at my last “recovery” week of the program as I stumbled upon your page. Keep up the good work! And be sure to keep eating right (w/ vitamins, p-tein shakes, etc)!!
“p-tein”? that’s a little lazy, eh?
It’s sickening really to watch those two go at it. Especially the Legs&Back video where he gives her a hug during the “huggers” and he gives absolutely no attention to Sophia – who is far more atractive and has a great body. I think Dreya is a little whore anyhow and Tony’s falling into her trap.
Ya, that tart Dreya’s got our boy Tony wrapped around her finger. Oh well, Tony’s the leader, he can do what (who) he wants. He could do worse. That nut-job Katie from Back and Biceps comes to mind.
Yeah… all he can say about Sophia is about her “chiclet” teeth!
Do the Lean routine and it’s like a nonstop Dreya fest. She’s even in the after vids where the guy talks about the powers of the protein shake. Of course, it’s also hard to ignore his comments to the redheaded girl (vanessa?) in front of her fiance Dom. “the skin of a five year old.” Yeech.
Hahaha! I love this! I just started the lean 3 days ago and Tony totally wants Dreya. She either seems embarrassed or uninterested. Poor Tony.
I didnt think anything of his comments. He is very polite to all of the people. He comments on how some of the guys are “Gristle” or how awesome the other guys are for flexibility. He commented on the one dudes awesome Abs…. Ive heard him on the other videos compliment the other ladies too… including the dentist and her beautiful teeth. He’s a nice guy, I dont read into his relationship with Dreya other than they are friends. I feel it is presumptuos to think of Tony as lacking professionalism as if he were trying to make moves on this one lady because he could not hold back until after the video production. Read his Blogs…he really seems to have his act together and a healthy perspective on life. To me that includes not messing around with someone elses wife. He seems nice to me..and certainly in better shape than most guys his age….I believe he wouldnt have problems getting other fish from the sea…heck for all you know he may not even go for women. But again thats crazy speculation…..Leave the poor guy alone, and stick to “BRINGING IT!!”
Nah. He’s into her. It’s not the amount of atention that gives it away. It’s the type.
LOL He’s got a thing for Dreya. My husband and I both noticed it. Tony is nice, but you can tell he’s got it bad for Dreya. Poor guy, he’s caught on tape for the nation to see, crushing on her! LOL
Still the workouts kick ass. I’m still working on getting the food stuff right, but my husband, being a guy, got wicked ripped in like two weeks. Of course, he only had an extra two pounds anyway. >_< Guys have it SO much easier than chicks when it comes to loosing fat. I have to KILL myself to loose some fat, and he just stops eating donuts for a week. I don't even EAT donuts!
Hilarious.. I picked up on Tony’s flirting with Dreya right away! It’s nice to read that other people noticed too!
