The right side or chainwheel side is regular thread. Righty tighty - Lefty loosie. the Left side is reverse thread. Turn it the way you would normally tighten a bolt and it will come off.
He's talking about the allen bolt that holds the X body on, both of those are normal right hand thread. The pedal shafts I believe require a 15mm wrench and the left one is left hand thread and the right one is right hand thread.
