Anyone know the P90X fitness guide?

Had mine but put it in the box and lost the box. Just need the singles for all the weeks. I know that week 1,2,3 in the first two days is chest and back with ab ripper x and the second day is plyometrics, but nothing more than that.

I found this http://www.scribd.com/doc/9765559/P90X-Fitness-Guide looks like that is what you are looking for!

What health problems can using an overtly small mouse cause?

Ok, so, my dad got this really small,red,novelty optical mouse he got as a price from work (1.7×2.5 inches) and it's really cute so he gave it to my mom since his hands are big but my mom doesn't use it so I decided to use it for the first time since I borrowed her laptop and I was just wondering what health problems can arise from prolonged use of this mouse.

Any condition that exerts pressure on the median nerve at the wrist can cause carpal tunnel syndrome. Tendon inflammation resulting from repetitive work, such as uninterrupted typing, can also cause carpal tunnel symptoms.

Buy a better one. It's not worth the discomfort.

What are some good fitness tips….?

What are some good exercises to get a flatter stomach by September. Also How much weight can I lose in 3 months. New School! New Look! What is a muffin top? Also what should I eat more and what should I eat less of?

Try to eat lots of fruits and vegetables and lean protein and to get your body in great shape, try Pilates. Essentially, all Pilates exercises are abdominal exercises, working from the powerhouse and they zero in on the abdominals, build your core strength, and flatten your stomach.
