P90X Review

A really good work out I like and several others enjoy is beach bodies P90X.  I wanted to use this blog to talk about each P90X work out!

Get P90X from Amazon.com

Chest and Back: Chest and back is hard, it's full of push up and pull ups.  It is a full focus on the chest muscles and the back muscles.

Plyo: Plyo is a super cardio work-out all about jump training.

Shoulders and Arms: This is my favorite lifting work out, it works the three main arm muscles, biceps, triceps, and shoulders.

Yoga X: This is an hour and a half workout, it's extremely difficult.  It is much harder than any yoga workout I have done at the gym.

Legs and Back:  This is a tough leg workout, its includes squats, and lots of lunges.  It gives your legs a break as you work your back with push-ups.

Kenpo X:  This work-out is another favorite work-out of mine.  It is a great cardio work-out that includes several kicks, blocks, and punches.  It is a great core work out!

X-Stretch: I add this as a supplemental work-out, it is very much like a basic yoga or hatha yoga.  It gives practically every muscle in your body a good stretch!


Core Synergistic: This is a tough workout that integrates some cardio with shoulder, chest, abs, oblique, glutes, thighs, hip flexors, and hamstrings.

Chest, Shoulders, Triceps: Like the shoulders and arm work-out this is a basic weight lifting work-out.  It just mixes in push ups, along with shoulder and triceps moves.  It is tough.

Back and Biceps: Another weight-lifting workout, with pull ups and bicep moves.  Very focus on biceps.

Cardio X: This is a fairly simple workout.  It is one of the shortest and it takes the cardio out of core, kempo, and plyo, with a yoga warm-up.  This one is enjoyable because it really gives you a mix up and taste of a few different work-outs.

Ab Ripper X: This is the shortest work-out of them all but don't let it fool you.  Fifteen minutes of hard ab work that will leave your abs hurting for days.
