P90X Healthy Meals
I have always believed that half the battle was my eating habits and being on the road that was going to be very challenging. I didn’t really stick with the meal plan that came with the P90x set but I did manage to control my bad habits. I cut out almost all sugars and all bad carbs like pizza, beer, and pasta. The list could go on and on like Ice Cream, pie, chips and how about those starbucks coffee’s. I will slowly be updating this page with meals that will help you get through some tough days ahead. I will state some obvious things below that you may already know so bare with me. Once again I’m not a nutritionist and don’t claim to be but I do speak from experience as my results prove it.
The P90X Nutrition Plan categorizes the following:
- Proteins:
- Fat-free, lean meats, and eggs.
- Dairy: Low-fat milk and cheeses.
- Fruits and vegetables: Organic or unprocessed.
- Carbohydrates: Complex – breads, pasta. Avoid simple carbohydrates such as refined sugars, fruit juices, etc.
- Snacks: Dried fruit, turkey jerky, soy nuts, protein bars.
- Condiments: Low-fat marinades, fat-free dressings, mustards, honey.

Examples of meals under the P90X Nutrition Plan might include:
- Two dairy products such as fat-free or low-fat milk, cream cheese, or yogurt.
- One piece of fruit.
- Three servings of vegetables. For those who aren’t particularly fond of vegetables, a glass of V-8 juice can be substituted.
- One to two teaspoons of a condiment such as mustard, barbeque sauce, or ketchup may be added to the meal.
- Six small, 3 oz., servings of protein; e.g., chicken or turkey.
- Three servings of carbohydrates, a cup of each such as rice, beans, or two slices of whole wheat bread.
- One recovery drink or power bar may be added after your workout session.
