My Review Of The P90X Nutrition Guide

The P90X nutrition guide includes many different meal options.

There are three phases P90X Nutrition Plan:

* Phase 1: Fat Shredder - eat foods high in protein to build muscle and lose fat.

* Phase 2: Energy Booster - a combination of carbohydrates and protein with low-fat foods to increase your energy level.

* Phase 3: Endurance Maximizer - eat complex carbohydrates, lean proteins, and low fat foods to give you stamina for your workout routines.

I like the guidelines in the P90x nutrition guide. They're solid and they work. There are tips like:

* eat protein with every meal
* have 4 to 7 servings of fruits and vegetables every day
* stick to whole grain carbs
* drink 6 to 10 8 oz cups of water every day
* eat good fats from sources like avocado, olive oils, fish and nuts
* don't skip meals

Here are the types of foods you eat:

- Proteins: chicken, fish, lean red meat, and egg whites
- Dairy: low-fat milk and cheese
- Fruits and vegetables: organic or unprocessed
- Complex Carbohydrates: whole wheat breads and pastas; avoid simple carbohydrates like refined sugars, fruit juices, etc
- Snacks: dried fruit, turkey jerky, soy nuts, protein bars
- Condiments: low-fat marinades, fat-free dressings, mustard, honey

Some of the types of fish recommended in the guide:

- catfish
- light tuna
- mackerel
- codfish
- salmon

- chicken
