Have you done it multiple times a week for more than 3 weeks?

I've done it daily for 8 months (P90X). Still hate it. Still doesn't "recharge" me or do any of the other things fans claim it does for them.

Do you at least sleep better/rise easier?

I've done every possible combination. HIIT, free weights, bands, VR cardio, lengthy strolls. I've done each for at least months at a time. None of have had any noticeable effects on my well-being. I live in a big city with no car, so I walk a lot no matter what. Even going relatively hard on barbell squats and dead lifts just made my legs feel weaker.
