I have been thinking of buying the p90x .my question is this the nutrition plan is geared toward burning fat during first phase and long endurance during the last phase , so when you are finished with the three phases would the nutrition plan be a good plan to stay on to maintain weight and health ? What phase would you recommend staying on to maintain your results you achieved ?

The first phase is high protein/low carb (fat burner), the second phase is more of a balanced 40/30/30 diet and the last phase is low protein/high carb.

I did Power 90 for 60 days before moving to P90X. I have done the program many times over the past couple of years. I stayed on the high protein phase for all of Power 90 and the first three months of P90X, I then move to the more balanced diet and have been there since. I don’t think you need the high carb phase unless you are training for endurance, or doing multiple workouts a day.

My recommendation is to stick with the high protein/low carb (fat burner) phase as long as you have fat to burn and you have energy for your workouts.

Here’s a video I put together on the nutrition plan

I would like to increase me endurance for tennis, and I was wondering what are good foods to eat before, and after running.

I know carbs give energy, but I don’t know if I should be eating a lot of protein or what to eat after running also. Thanks.

i like bananas before i work out becasue of the potassium which is good for your muscles.
other good foods-
trail mix
granola bars
other fruit

I am a 14 year old male. Need assistance with nutrition and developing programs to follow with endurance running and fitness. Strength would be a bonus.

It would be also great if the trainer was enthusiastic. aka a fitness freak like me.
Even better would be if they can teach me more about physiology or sports nutrition.

Er, London, sure, there are about a million personal trainers in that area. Just go to your nearest gym or health supply store. It will probably cost at least 30 pound an hour. I think that’s the going rate for basic personal training.

What phase would you recommend staying on to maintain your results you achieved ?

The middle phase is a good maintenance phase. It’s pretty much what I stick to. I have done P90X twice and have maintained my results and continued to lose weight.

I have been looking at my swimming times and they are pretty slow. My coaches tell me that I need more nutrition for endurance, only I don’t know what to eat.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!
