What happened to the old way where you don't need a program and you just, well, exercise or weight train?

it's true, the most important thing isn't what program you are in, but rather you find something that you can stick to.

P90x, crossfit, etc doesn't do a lick of good when you've quit it in 2 months.

oooo I didnt know they had that one. The one I was in last week, the instructor is ex-military, he's pretty hardcore. There were a couple of guys brave enough to do the class with us....they were strugglin

well i know the ones back home have it. It usually depends on the instructor. One of them goes all out, no one leaves w/o sweating. Pretty intense class if you have the right instructor.

When you do that you essentially develop your own program so its really no difference as long as you use stuff like P90X as a guide. Its not traditional, but for people who like to be organized with their routines and can't necessarily pay for the gym, its nice to have (if you can snag it for free).

I lift, mtn bike, play soccer, & when I added some of the P90X stuff to my routine, it honestly helped me out endurance wise by leaps and bounds.

I'm in the wrong line of work.

Sexing up the concept of eat a lot less and exercise a lot more seems to be a bajillion dollar industry, assuming you can get enough people talking about it.

I work in advertising now. Just about every major industry is just sexing up basic concepts.

So I've been doing it for about 3 weeks. I highly recommend it. It's a lot of fun and super convenient.

I've gained 3 lbs but no doubt its all muscle.

Most people I know who have done it, loved and hated it at the same time. I "got" the P90X disks the other day and plan on getting started as soon as the dr. gives me the ok to use my arm again. Going to have to come up with an alternative for the push ups and pull ups for awhile though but I figure it will be the quickest way to get back into shape for the summer even if I can't do that part of it.

Yeah I have issues with my trapezius muscle. So I work my legs and butt during some of the back exercises they do.

There are a LOT of push ups and pull ups though.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
