My Review
Ok so I purchased P90X back on October 2007. I was pretty excited, I have always been athletic and in decent shape. I am not one of those guys that’s like to go to the gym and workout. I had never even tried a workout dvd prior to P90X because I did not see myself staying with it or doing the same video everyday (BORING!). The P90X commercial was WAY different. This came with 12 workouts! and Diet guide. What hooked me was the layout of the program. You will have a week to week program to follow with specific dvd’s, which after 3 weeks you change to a much-needed Recovery Week, only to start an entirely new work out phase and different workouts. Now, the workouts are EXTREME as the title suggest. Each day you can figure about one hour plus to devote to P90X. In the classic version you will have 3 days of resistance workouts and added to these are the ab workouts. The resistance workouts are about an hour and the ab one is 16 minutes. What I learned to do was split the resistance workout from the ab workout and do them completely separately. I did my workouts first thing in the morning and the ab workout later in the day. Best part of P90X is there is no thought process, just follow the layout and your GTG! It can also be tailored to any way you may want to do it. It has 3 different versions to follow. Classic, Doubles and Lean. Easy enough right.
Below I will just give a brief review of each dvd.
Chest & Back: This is push and pull to the max…you will go from push ups to pull-ups and by using different hand positions and grips to work different muscles. This workout is really tough, once I got finished (or so I thought) Tony says ” we are gonna do that whole thing again” WHAT !
Plyometrics: (Jump Training) “The Mother of All P90X Workouts! And I kid you not. I could not even do this workout until I completed my 1st 90 days in the lean version( where Cardio X replaces Plyometrics) . Like Tony Says” Get your little bunker my friend, cause this one works ya” When I did start to do it I had to really pace myself slowly to keep from feeling nauseous, but after a few times I was able to Bring it!
Shoulders And Arms: Man o Man I look forward to this workout. It focuses on the “Glamour Muscles” Shoulder Biceps and Triceps. You will be working these muscles hard on this day. You will do a set of 3 exercise in the order of Shoulder, Biceps then Triceps and then repeat those same moves. 5 Sets
Yoga X: For me I have a really hard time with Yoga, for those of you who do not think yoga will work ya, you are dead wrong. This is one of the hardest workouts for me and you will be sweating your butt off.
Legs & Back: Time for legs, as if I havent used them all week in the other workouts, now its time to Bring it. In the workout you will go from leg, to calve to pull-ups. Good Luck with the wall squats.
Kenpo X: Kenpo is fun fun. You’ll be done with this workout before ya know it. From punching to kicking Karate style, fun packed workout right here.
X Stretch: This is mainly used on your recovery weeks but is also your 7th day workout (or you can choose to rest)
Core Synergistics: Synergistics is working multiple muscles at the same time. This is another really tough workout for me. You are using your core muscles in every move from push ups to squats and lunges.
Chest Shoulders and Triceps: Back to shoulders and triceps. I enjoy all of the non cardio days and this one is another one of my favorites, you will doing push ups in so many forms on this day while blasting those triceps muscles as well.
Back and Biceps: Just what it says…Time to blast those biceps, move after move after move, and your break from biceps is pull ups. By the end of this workout you will attempting 1 arm push up and plyo push ups…Oh Ya Baby!!
Cardio X: Another fun cardio workout. This incorporates all the other cardio workouts in 1. You’ll start with Yoga, then move to Kenpo, Plyo, and finish with Core. This is the shortest P90X workout at 43 minutes, but its a huge calorie burn.
Ab Ripper X: As Tony says “I HATE IT, BUT I LOVE IT”
Each workout has a warm-up phase and cool down phase, which are critical to your success…
