P90X won't cure that, it will just make you pissed you wasted 90 days. Read the FAQs, google a question before you post it, and enjoy your stay

Got heel hooked, it compacted my left knee so hard that I have a femur bruise.

Well anything can be beneficial to me considering my current condition (smoker, college student, sit on *** all day) so I figured I would give it a shot and hopefully see some positive results in my future (physical/mental)

Find a good routine and start hitting the gym at your school.
Tony Horton is a pain in the *** and P90X will almost definitely not yield the results you're looking for - all I've seen it effectively do is disenchant people and trim off a few lbs of fat in a somewhat unproductive fashion.

I probably won't be lifting until after my p90x though. I've never had enough motovation and had a little bit of anxiety walking into a gym just because I can't lift or bench like anyone especially for my age (23). But thanks for pointing that out

I started lifting when I was 26. I benched the bar. I still don't bench much more than that lol. I'm working on it though.
Smith Press 80 3x10+2
Squat 190 10,11,12
RDL 100 3x10
DB Shrug 60sx10,70sx8,80sx6
db curl 30s 8,2x10
seated calf raise 30 3x20
Pushups 20,17,10
still going strong. I like the variety of this split, and it feels good to get stronger in a new rep range.

I know that feel, bro.
'twas me last year. I could hardly rep 95lbs on a flat bench, was shoulder pressing like 25lb DBs. Go there, don't be a dick, grind it out, work hard, and you'll be respected by the regulars in no time. Then ff 1 year and you'll be looking sick yourself. Like I said, p90x seems to disenchant more than it seems to help.

Push ups are some of the best exercises you can do.
Try timing your push-ups and hitting 100. Towards the end you completely struggle to do more than 5-6 consecutively. It is actually kind of fun once you start really pushing yourself (no pun) to keep getting to 100 faster and faster. I've done it a few times and so far I'm at 5:43.

Uhh well I think eventually I want to be able to do 30-40 pushups in a row maybe, so 100 won't be so bad. I started doing them to work on my MMC for my upper body, and to strengthen/stabilize my shoulder girdle.

Did 200 push ups as a warm up then did a hybrid DC training/P90x/IIFYM/Sheiko at the gym today. My muscles feel pretty shocked.

Squatting doesn't hurt your knees. Half-squatting does. Box squatting in particular is pretty damn easy on your knees.
