I just got the new version of p90x yesterday and pretty excited to start it and compare it against the original. Did anyone else get it?

Would have had it by now if it weren't for a billing issue (preordered back in Aug/Sep, bank switched from Visa to MasterCard and sent us new cards with entirely different numbers, Beachbody tried charging the old card and the bank declined it. Fortunately I figured out what happened). Really looking forward to getting it.
Why not wait till may?

Thats unfortunate, but at least you got it figured out. I understand they sold 80,000 pre-orders of the new version. That's insane.Quote:

Sounds like you're gearing up for a hot-body contest.Quote:

There is tons of stretching warming up/cooing down (about 20 mins). It's almost overkill - I find myself disinterested in the foam rolling as they spend about 4 mins just doing that.
Excited to start week two
I hate the 90 min yoga workout in P90x. I just quit doing it and replaced it with other workouts.
Yeah, I did the same thing. This yoga workout is actually a lot better than the first P90, not just because it's shorter. The holds aren't as long and the core yoga moves are better.Quote:
