2. The P90X Calendar
   The P90X calendar is a simple 3 page fold out calendar. On one side of the fold out you are given the three phases over time to the 90 day program. In each section of each phase you are instructed as to which DVD or DVD's you should do for that particular day of the phase. In addition to each phase you are given three options of the program that you can choose to do. The options include: The Classic Program, The Lean Program and the Doubles Program.
   
   The opposite side of the fold out gives you the actual calendar, showing each of the 90 Days and giving you space in each of those days to write what workouts you did and if you stuck to your meal plan. At the start of the calendar are the words "Take before Picture" and at the end of the calendar are the words "Take after picture".
   
   
   
3. The Fitness Guide:
   
   
   The Fitness guide is an extensive description of every exercise that the P90X program is made up of. Most of the exercises that make up P90X are 60 seconds or less. It doesn't matter if it;'s the Yoga DVD your on or the Cardio DVD the majority o f the exercises are quick, rapid fire in design to keep you excited and your muscles confused.
   
   
4. The Nutrition Guide:
   
   
   The P90X nutrition guide is very comprehensive, although it doesn't cover every possible eating scenario it comes very close. You are given may options on how to build your meals, you can either use the P90X recipes for each meal or just use the guidelines to create your own meal plan while still staying within the diet parameters. I have listed below the 3 phases the P90X Nutrition guide offers.
   
   Phase 1: Fat Shredder
   This phase is the lowest in calories to help kick start weight loss and is followed for the first four weeks. Carbohydrates are almost completely eliminated while protein intake is kept high to help with building muscle and burning fat.
   
   Phase 2: Energy Booster
   In phase two complex carbohydrates are added back into the diet to allow you to train harder and keep up with the intense workouts during this phase.
   Dieters are permitted to eat three serves of complex carbohydrates such as whole wheat bread, pasta or oatmeal as well as one piece of low glycemic index fruit daily. Protein intake also remains high so as to aid in muscle recovery.
   You can stick with this phase as long as it is working for you and only need to progress to phase 3 if you want to increase muscular endurance and gain more muscle.
   
   Phase 3: Endurance Maximizer
   Carbohydrates are increased further to give you the stamina necessary to get through the high intensity workouts of this phase.
   In all of the phases eating frequent small meals and drinking lots of water are emphasized.
   Dieters have two options for each phase; either follow the meal plan or the portion plan. The meal plan includes sample menus with recipes. With the portion plan you are given a list of how many serves of each food type you are allowed so you can devise your own meal plans.
