P90X

[blm]

It's amazing how quickly the general public becomes consumed and convinced by "new training" miracles (for lack of a better term).

I don't know too much about it, but I looked it up briefly after I hear random people talk about it everyday like it is going to instantly turn the typical lazy individual into the ultimate physical specimen.

I am sooooooo tired of hearing about this damn program.

P90X is the current incarnation of several generations of interval training programs developed by Tony Horton after beginning his work with home exercise company BeachBody in 1996. In 1998, with BeachBody, Tony helped create his first home exercise product called Great Body Guaranteed as well as the original Power 90 (P90) interval and circuit training style home training video. The formula, marketed via infomercials and other broadcast media, began selling well, and, in 2004, Tony debuted an extreme version of the original P90.[2] P90X was created as a continuation of the ideas started in the original P90 by researching new exercises aimed at better working out the entire body.


P90X uses the idea of "muscle confusion," a cross training technique that prevents exercise plateauing by varying exercises over days and weeks such that the body has difficulty adapting. The system includes strength training, cardio, and stretching. In addition to pull-up and push-up emphasizing workouts, the system also stresses overall body fitness by including plyometrics (jump training), yoga, and kenpo.[3]
The workouts are about an hour to an hour-and-a-half in length and star Tony Horton with 3 or 4 fellow exercisers as back-up. For workouts that require weights, one of the back-up exercisers will generally demonstrate the exercise using the alternative resistance bands. The back-up exercisers will also sometimes perform different versions of the exercise at varying levels of intensity. With the exception of the Ab Ripper X routine, each workout generally begins with about 10 minutes of stretching (static and ballistic) and warm-up and ends with stretching and cool down of 3-5 minutes.

My friend sells them and all kinds of sups they make.
He gave me one witch I only glanced in the box. But as Alin said the diet plans look good. It comes with a book that tells you what to eat.
I have also watch the infomercial on TV and the workouts look pretty good.
One catch to it. It will be as hard or easy as you want it to be. So if you are weak minded it will do nothing for you.

I am gonna have my chica do it after the baby. She is a tuff lil bitch so I think it will work well for her.

I got a copy of the dvd set from a friend of mine.. He lost 60 lbs following the program.. I tried it right when i started working out again a month ago and it was tough.. doing set after set of pullups and pushups over and over and over and over and .... well you get my point sucked!!! The cardio dvd was not cardio but yoga, stretching etc.. NOt what I thought it would be, but after doing the first video a couple of times, I went back to the iron and have not looked at it since

Did you do the Yoga? I never even seen the DVD yet but from what I hear Yoga in general is no joke and will make most big guys crumble.
I have no clue if this is true or not?
