    I would start with these two (available from Amazon):

    Strength Training Anatomy by Frederic Delavier

    Underground Bodyopus: Militant Weight Loss & Recomposition by Daniel Duchaine

    I would also suggest watching some videos. Jay Cutler or the FST series is not a bad way to get some motivation.

    You can also learn a great deal without spending a dime. Check out these forums, the videos on this site, and youtube.

    Bodybuilding is a science when it comes to nutrition and training, here try the bill starr 5x5 intermidiate program after your finish with that p90x, this will give you a head start in muscle and strength gain:

    Bill Starr 5x5 - Madcow Intermediate or Linear Version

    Oh and heres a calculater too once you figure out your maxes:
