P90X Review

by Ryan on September 1, 2010

So the new craze in the workout world is the P90X Extreme Home Fitness. While some of you might know what this workout is about here is a brief rundown for those of you who don’t. P90X was created by  Tony Horton who’s goal is to “get ripped in 90 days.” This workout was created to help you get into shape and stay in shape with just two key components: Proper exercise and proper nutrition. So how does it work you ask, well here is how it goes.

P90X is different from the traditional workout programs because it uses the training science of muscle confusion. As the 90 day workout progresses your body starts to change and the workouts do too. The workout part of the program has three Phases that are constantly changing by incorporating new moves and routines to follow along with the changes that are happening to your body. Compared to traditional workouts which often have a “Plateau Effect”, the P90X avoids this by challenging your muscles. This is done by alternating between many different movements which helps your muscles to continue to grow throughout the 90 days.

The P90X workout includes three guides to help you “bring it”. These guides are “P90X Workout 3 phase Nutrition Plan” which is designed to help give you energy and help you to burn fat, “P90 X Fitness Guide” which walks you through each phase and outlines the workout schedule, and “How to Bring It” is an introduction to the workout system and helps you to get started. Not only does the P90X have the guides to help you along your 90 day journey but is also composed of 12 different workout videos which include: Chest and Back, Plyometrics, Shoulders and Arms, Yoga X, Legs and Back, Kenpo X, X Stretch, Core Synergistics, Chest, Shoulders and Triceps, Back and Biceps, Cardio X, and Ab Ripper.

So if this workout sounds like the one for you should try it. The workout plan works your muscles hard. If you have tried it let me know what you think.

I use the p90x and can say it really is an awesome program. I was skeptical at first but when I reseacrhed and found that it wasn’t a fluke and the trainer is in his 50′s I was sold! Keep in mind you can get discouraged, especially if your way out of shape, Just put it to the back of your mind and keep pushing as hard as you can and it will get easier each week.
