What is P90X?
P90X is an extreme fitness program designed for those who are already in good physical shape. It is a fitness and nutritional program that promises to get you in the “best shape of your life in just 90 days.” P90X is not for everyone. There are strict warnings from the “parent” company, Beach Body. There is a fitness test within the guidebook which is recommended before starting the program. If you meet the requirements, P90X guarantees (There is a 100% 90-day satisfaction guarantee) that you can expect the following:
-To get in the best shape of your life.
-To develop skills, coordination and flexibility you never dreamed possible.
-To sharpen your knowledge of smart eating and discover health diet choices.

How Does It Work?
P90X consists of 12 separate workout routines, a 3-phase nutrition plan, supplement options, a fitness guide, a progress calendar and online support. The workout routines are said to promote “muscle confusion.” Essentially, the hundreds of movements within each exercise routine challenge the body’s muscles into new growth. Furthermore, the muscles do not get used to the routines and they continue to develop.

The P90X system includes the following 12 extreme training routines:
-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
-X Stretch.

Most of the routines take about an hour to an hour and a half. You will also need resistance bands or dumbbells, a pull-up bar, heart rate monitor and a yoga mat.

During the 90 days you will go through three phases. Each phase is one month long and consists of three weeks of intensity followed by one week of recovery. Well, that one week of recovery is truly a full week of cardio type workouts.

You will also go through a three phase nutrition plan during these 90 days which will teach you how to shed fat, boost your energy and maximize endurance. There are personalized meal plans to teach you portion control and help you lose weight and build your metabolism.

Also included is the access to the message boards which will give you answers to qustions about the exercise or nutrition routine as well as to provide motivation, workout tips, etc.

This workout system is so comprehensive and unlike most of the other weight loss diets out there, it is promoting diet and exercise as the way to achieving your weight loss goals. It costs about $120 but well worth the cost in my estimation as you would pay that much going to the gym. This can be done in the comfort of your own home and once you finished the 90 days, you can move on to another one of the routines that is listed in the P90X fitness guide.
