P90X review

P90X is a weight loss system created by Beach Body, a company that offers other weight reduction programs such as Hip Hop Abs and Turbo Jam. This system claims to get your body from â€œregular to ripped in just 90 days.â€ P90X consists of 12 workout routines (a series of DVDs), a 3-phase nutrition plan, unique supplement options, a fitness guide, a progress calendar and online support. Tony Horton is the â€œpersonal trainerâ€ for this specific weight loss program. There is a 100% 90-day satisfaction guarantee offered with P90X.

The key to this programâ€™s effectiveness is stated to be â€œmuscle confusion,â€ which basically means that numerous exercises are incorporated and encouraged to keep different muscle groups doing different things as much as possible. This way there is no â€œplateauâ€ effect. Therefore the muscles do not get used to the routines and they continue to develop. The workout programs are named after the muscle groups that they work out, and these are: Chest and Back, Shoulders and Arms, Yoga X, Plyometrics, Legs and Back, Kenpo X, Chest, Shoulders and Triceps, Back and Biceps, Core Synergistics, Ab Ripper X, Cardio X and X Stretch. There are success stories posted on the official P90X website. This fitness program is stated to take one hour each day. A few additional supplies needed for P90X are resistance bands or dumbbells and a pull-up bar/place to perform pull-ups.

During the cold winters, P90X should be a good guide to keep in shape and help develop more strength in the legs in preparation for next year.Â  Upon trying the first DVD, Legs and Back, I was exhausted 45 minutes into the 1 hour session.Â  The next day my legs were burning, GREAT!Â  Tells me that it actually worked.Â  Can’t wait for the next DVD.
