Hello Mark,

you can but you need to check the nutritional values to make sure they line up with the nutritional values in phase 1.

THis is more of a question. If you are on Phase 1, Level 1, can you eat the recipes listed in phases 2 and 3 that are written and labeled level 1? And vise versa. If you are on phase 3 can you eat the recipes listed after phase 1 as long as you are using the recipe listed as phase 3?

I have purchased p90x in Europe, uk..but nothing is in grams (we have to be careful as a uk once is different to a us ounce)

Example

US pint = 473ml = 1/16 = 1 ounce = 29.6grams
UK pint = 563ml = 1/16 = 1 ounce = 28.4 grams

And are you saying 1 cup = 236 ml ? As this can differ too…..some people use 250.

..and where can I buy the protein bars etc in the uk?

Hello Rickelle,

generally, you should eat every 2-4 hours. You should wait at least and hour after you have a meal before you start your workout. Recovery drinks should be consumed within one hour of your workout.

Wether you eat before or after your workout is totally up to you, just give yourself an hour in between so you don’t get sick to your stomach.

Just starting p90x and I am planning on following the nutritional guide but I have a question regarding when I should be eating these meals, how far apart and should I eat breakfast after my workout or before?? And if I eat my breakfast right after my workout should I also consume my recovery drink then or wait?

I have a question.I see under the portion plan you can have a baked potato under the carbohydrate section.Can you put any butter or sour cream on the potato?I have one more question.Does your snacks count for one of the servings for the food group they fall under or do they count just for the snack serving.For example if you eat a protein bar for a snack does that count under the potein serving or a snack serving.

muscle workouts should be based on recovery. You need adequate rest after training hard if you intend to get optimal muscle growth. Not until you get to the advanced stage, you should never train up to 5 days a week!

Kevin,

if you have to skip a day, I would pick up where you left off and complete the missed workout the following day.
