P90X parent company Beachbody must be spamming the heck out of the TV infomercial channels this month, because I keep getting emails from readers asking if P90X is right for them based on my run with the program a few years ago.

For the past week, I’ve been reviewing the Shapeshift program from Grrlathlete.com that I picked up last year, and I am going to take a stab at following it starting next week in lieu of going back to the Body by O 4-day body part split. I’m at the point where bicep curls and […]
