P90X done. Now what?

Today marks the final day in my P90X program. It's been a long journey, 13 weeks to be exact, since I started this ultra fitness program. For those who don't know, it's an intense workout program designed to turn people who are somewhat fit into really fit people. This means I worked out 1 hour a day, 6 days a week. 3 days were weight training, 3 days were cardio-type workouts.

I started out doing the workouts religiously and eating, for the most part, pretty well. I would have meals here and there that weren't that great, but I still stuck to the eating plan really well. However, the more I started to see results, the more focused I got about eating right. After a while, I was really pushing myself during the workouts, and I began eating exactly like the plan told me to.

I was amazed of the progress after the first 30 days, but only until I kept going did I truly realize the results that I was getting. Days 60, and now, day 90, have really shown the progress of the sculpting of muscle and the trimming of fat that I have achieved from this program.

It did take me a little longer than 90 days to do this program because there were days when I couldn't do the workouts (like when I went skiing), and I didn't do it during Spring Break. But I did not skip a single workout, and I made sure to make them up and just continue where I left off the next day.

Here's a photo montage of my journey.

Day 90 (Phase 3 Complete; Entire Program Complete)



So, now I'm done. It took a lot of hard work and dedication, that's for sure. But I don't want to stop, and I'm not sure what the next step is. I'm very happy with the results, and I would like to get even better results. Maybe that means I need to keep doing it until I find another program I can do (one that is less time consuming) to maintain the results.
