Hi Kimberly, Congratulations! Unfortunately, it is more complicated than just telling you those limits. It depends on what level you are (Level I, II, or III), based on other calculations in that guide. I suggest you look at what is available in the downloadable PDF of the Nutrition Guide on the Beach Body website. It's not entirely complete, but it will get you started. You can also order a replacement guide from their site. The guide puts restrictions on the amount of proteins, dairy, fruits, vegetables, fats, carbs, snacks, and condiments; all based on what level you calculate for your body type and existing condition. If you do find out what level you should be at, let me know and I'll tell you the restrictions for that level. You should be fine using just the bands without a pull-up bar. Good luck!

Hey, thank you for this amazing site! I am preparing to start P90X on this Monday. Borrowed it from a friend and she lost the nutrition guide!!
Can you tell me how many grams of protein/carbs/fat I am to consume on Level 1 Fat Shredder? I have been reading for hours the last two days trying to figure all of this out. Also, I am in a transition (bad divorce) and am temporarily living where it is not possible to use the pull up bar. I will be doing the Lean version and to my knowledge this program does not require the use of the pull up bar, it appears I can use the bands instead…is this correct? Thanks again and Happy Fourth of July weekend!

Has anyone tried flavoured milk as a P90x Recovery Drink Alternative?

I just posted an article about Eco-Friendly Yoga supplies:

I feel that the P90X Yoga is probably the part of P90X that was most beneficial to me.

Matt I see where alot of people have chocolate milk as a recovery drink, if made right it has the proper 4:1 ratio. Is this an acceptable recovery drink. Thanks Pat

Thank you so much for all of the information. My husband and I will be starting on the program soon. I had considered ordering all the products from the company but was discouraged by the price. Even though I have never done the program, I do believe it is a great thing for people who want to get in amazing shape. Thanks again.
