@TonyLeBlanc We all have our strengths and weaknesses. My suggestion would be to go ahead and buy the Chin UP assist. This thing is awesome and it is WAY better than using a chair. This will help you get better with pull ups so that you can make sure that you are balancing out your body. Also make sure you are going as deep as tony and the crew are on the push ups. You are using the proper form and engagement.

Here is a link to the chin up assist. http://getrippedathome.com/gear/chin-up-max-assist-band/

Hi Sean

Im midway through week 2, I can do push up that match the pace and volume Tony does in the DVD yet I can barely knock out 2 pull ups for each pull up segment. I do my 2 then use the chair. What gives?

@Hamilton: I count Greek Yogurt as Protein myself. It depends on your current weight, and what your goals are…are you trying to lose weight?

Hi! Thank you for your informative post. I ended up here because I wasn’t sure if I should count my greek yogurt as protein or dairy. I just started P90x2 yesterday (got a cramp hip flexor but great workout nonetheless :D) and I wanted to know do I have to consume like all the portions the program recommends. Like I can get all my protein, fruits, veggies, fat, carb, portions but I’m just never hungry enough to include the snacks. I just keep them for like if I’m at work and I am nowhere near break. I’m a nutrition level 3 person. 4 snacks in total.

@Nikki: Yes, I believe you should. Whey protein is a fast digesting protein that is important for helping to build lean muscle that you are looking for, repair your body after your workout and help burn fat. Take it post workout with water, or almond milk. You want to look for a high quality whey protein ISOLATE, not concentrate. You can tell by looking on the ingredient list, it will be the FIRST ingredient listed

I just started p90x and this whole thing really confuses me! But one question I have is if I should use Whey protein powder sometime in my nutrition routine? If I’m a woman trying to lose weight instead of just get fit, should I still use it? If so when? And just in water or with milk???? It is also the “super advanced” type of whey, because walmart didn’t have anything else….

@Allegra: Congrats! I count greek yogurt as a protein myself. You can do both but I would keep it as a protein.

Hi! I just started the program yesterday and am wondering if i’m having ~1 cup of non fat, plain greek yogurt should I count this as a protein or dairy or both? I’m given 2 servings of dairy/day and 6 servings of protein. thanks!
