From my personal point of view, any form of exercise will have an effect on the body, especially when combined with proper nutrition. While not every program will be ideal for every person, depending on the that person’s goals, exercising, for the most part will benefit your body and health. So after reading in the BodyBuilding forums a great debate whether this is a good program or a scam, I decided to give it a try myself and record my progress from beginning to end.

As unfortunately as it is, I really haven’t seen many, if any full review by people who has tried this program. Part of the negative comments towards this program in the forum points out people quit before finishing the program. It sounds very familiar to me, thinking how many negative comments are towards P90X and how many people have given up up half way through it.

For that reason, and because I do like both, challenging my body and challenging those who would bash fitness programs without even trying them, I will start it next Wednesday August, 27th. From that moment on, I will post weekly reviews of my progress and experience using this program, hoping by the end of week 6, to either prove this program does work or it doesn’t.

The one element that will be different when I do this plan is, I will NOT use any of the supplements suggested by Jim on his plan. The only supplements I will be using are the pre-workout ones I always use. Other than that, I will base my macros strictly on food intake, and maybe if needed a protein shake.

I will post a link to a MyFitnessPal account I will open specifically to track the macro nutrients for those of you who are interested in seeing what I will be eating on a daily basis.

Last Friday night as I was going to bed I realized I only have one more week left before I finish my current workout plan. It got me thinking about what my next step would be. While I have been considering to try out some of the free plans available at BodyBuilding.com, it occurred to be that just like myself, there are many people out there hoping to find reviews on those programs, experiences, and results. In the past, I have looked up for some reviews, hoping to find someone who has taken the time to go over the program and show real results, but unfortunately I haven’t been convinced by what I have read.

While I’m not a professional in the fitness and nutrition field, I believe I have achieved a lot during the time I have been actively working out, whether it has been at home or at the gym. Because of that, my passion for fitness and honesty when it comes about what I believe it works or it doesn’t from my perspective, I’ve decided to create this blog and provide others with a better review as I experience each fitness program.

While I am aware each individual is different, regardless of their gender, ethnicity, age or health condition, and results will be different from person to person, I will never claim that my experiences are applicable to everybody the same way. My goal is to give you a basic idea and hopefully motivate you to either try the program or look for a different and better option for you.

I hope all of you get to enjoy my posts, like them, subscribe to my blog and share it with anyone you believe could benefit from it.
