    .
    Get it on amazon, its around $40.
    It was the best 40 Ive spent in years.
    The p90 is better to start with actually, a little easier.
    Alot of people, myself being one had some issues starting with the 90x.
    I dont want to give up, and I work like a dog, so I got injuries right off the bat that I powered through, and ended up having down time that I didnt want due to trying to work out to hard and too much.
    I stopped and went to the p90 and just took my time.

    I think the vids taught ME one thing, and thats the fact its not a quick fix, its getting my eating and excercise right for life, and taking my time. It doesnt have to be done in 90 days...
    I acutally already got through mine, but still do it every other night, and run on the alternate nights...

    I would suggest getting the whole package though, the nutrition books are a real help. The resistance bands I never used though.

    I'm at level H but hope to do better. Get it. Preparation H



    Actually back in late 1999 my neighbor was telling me how he was all prepared for Y2K. I noticed that out of all his preparation he never once mentioned a firearm. When he asked me if I was prepared for Y2K I just thought about everything he had in his well stocked basement, compared it to my well stocked gun room and told him I thought he had just about everything I would need.

    Yep, loose lips sink ships.... best not to discuss your preps with the neighbors or even other people in your town... people will do what they have to in order to feed themselves, their families...

    We are all quite litteraly, savages just under this facade we call "civilizaiton". Weird how so many historical examples exist to instruct, yet people (in general) forget this so fast and get into the "Mr. Rogers mode" of thinking.

    P90 huh.... I was going to start lifting and doing the "boxing" work out again... I can't really run consistently as I have bersitus in my left knee - its fine if I walk, I just can't pound it or it becomes inflamed and hurts like shit. Bersitus is latin referring to the "bersa" which is the pad that's in your knee - this get's inflamed and irritated. This only develops when I start running.

    What I really would like is one of those endless pools, but $10K is out of the question right now...

    How does one do this exactly?

    I grab him by his legs and hold him upside down or put him in my arms and rock him like a baby...You have to do it in front of the hens.
    He will get embarrassed.
    Also if you catch him trying to mingle with a hen in front of you then chase him away.
    Eventually they will know you are the alpha male and he will be less aggressive towards you.

    Dude it kicks my ass...I can only keep up with half the shit they do and I have noticed a difference in the way I breath and feel.
    I recommend this for anyone that is in decent shape. If you have medical conditions than you need to consult a DR.

    BTW...I got mine with all the books sealed for $25 off of Ebay.

    This rooster came from the bowels of hell.

    Don't you have chickens? If not get some...They are fun, cheap and you know you are getting quality eggs and meat.

    Being more or less a city boy I would not have considered treating my uppity rooster like this in a thousand years.

    I was half afraid the answer might be something along these lines but happily it wasn't.

    I was raised in a city and remember if you can make it in a city you can make it anywhere. I got tired of the rat race and settled in the country with my "hobby" farm.

    Thanks for the tip. I'll have to make sure and add it to my next amazon or ebay shopping trip.
    "The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time; the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them. ... Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just: that his justice cannot sleep for ever."--Thomas Jefferson
