My P90X Review for Shoulders & Arms is a week overdue. I had originally planned this review to roll out last week. My delay came in the form of a 6 year old little girl, and a 4 year old little boy. My daughter started tee ball last week, and my son started soccer. So now we are running our kids in two different directions. At such a young age, its not much of a “sporting event” but I enjoy watching them get some play time outside and extra exercise. Tonight, my wife is on soccer duty, and this gives me some extra time to get this review finished! › Continue reading

As I write this P90X Review, I am completely exhausted! I just finished my P90X Chest & Back workout. I could wait until later to write up my P90X review, but I don’t want to forget any details. Generally, right after I finish the workout, I have some particular thoughts & comments that I want to share. P90X Chest & Back is the first workout in the Classic and Doubles rotation. We have more customers start with Classic than any other rotation, so this workout is generally the first one of the series. Even if you do the Lean rotation, you’ll still get your shot at Chest & Back, but it will be in the 9th week. › Continue reading

Today’s P90X Review will be for P90X Cardio X. This is really a great workout. It’s not super intense, and it’s not crazy hard. It has a little bit of Yoga, some Kenpo X, Plyometrics, and Core Synergistics. All of these “mini” workouts, make up the Cardio X workout. This workout is not seen in the Classic rotation. The Classic rotation uses Plyometrics instead. The Lean Version does use Cardio X, instead of Plyometrics. And the Doubles rotation (meaning you do P90X in the AM and the PM), uses it as one of the second workouts in a given day. I hope that last little bit of information didn’t confuse you. In the › Continue reading

In every P90X Review I write, you’ll get a fair and honest review. At least, it will be "fair and honest" in my opinion. P90X Legs and Back is not one of my favorites. But then again, I’m sure there are people out there, that absolutely love it. If you’re one of those people that love/hate this workout, comment below, all comments are welcome. I really only have two reasons for my "less than favorable" opinion. The first reason, I can’t seem to walk normal for a couple of days afterward. Sure I could back off the workout some, but I can’t seem to do that. On the bright side of that, at least it’s working! The second › Continue reading

Curiosity got the better of me, and I wanted to know just how many rounds of P90X I have actually completed. So I went and read my coach profile at the Team Beachbody website. As of my last update, I had completed 9 rounds of P90X. With this P90X Review, I am undergoing my 10th round! Time flies went your staying fit! Well, I guess with 9 rounds of P90X behind me, I feel comfortable in writing a P90X review. I guess some people could say with 9 rounds, I could be biased. I guess I am, but why would I stop doing a workout program that works so well! So I have been off P90X for a while. I did › Continue reading

Welcome back for another P90X Review. Today I’m going to review the P90X Ab Ripper X workout. Ab Ripper X is a very thorough, well rounded, intense abdominal workout. As if the name doesn’t say it all, Tony Horton refers to Ab Ripper X as… "I hate it, but I love it". This is a quote, which in time, you will also repeat yourself. Although at first, it might just be, "I hate it". lol. Today was the first time I have completed the P90X Ab Ripper X in about 8 weeks. It’s not uncommon at all for me to cycle through several ab workouts. Beachbody has numerous ab workouts that come with their various › Continue reading

My first P90X workout was in January of 2006. After 4 years of doing P90X, I’m finally going to start my P90X Review. Now I did write a short review some time back, but it was an overall review. This P90X review will be different. I will be reviewing each P90X DVD individually. Since this is day 1 of my new rotation, I will be reviewing each DVD as I progress through the 90 day program. P90X comes with 3 rotations: Classic, Lean and Doubles. Since I have already been through these rotations, the rotation I do this time, will be in a slightly different order, but don’t worry, each DVD will be covered, › Continue reading

I was following up with some customers, and was especially curious about Terry as I knew from previous correspondence that he was getting closer and closer to completing the P90X workout. I was completely surprised when he emailed me back with some before and after pictures, and I could be crazy, but I thought he looked YOUNGER. Read his testimonial, and tell me if you don’t agree. Great job Terry!!

P90X Reviews: I Feel & Look Younger Than Before

From Terry: I had just turned 51 and I had stopped recognizing myself in pictures. I was active, playing tennis twice a week and working out at the gym twice a week but my body was in a rut. I did the same work out every time I went to the gym but I couldn’t understand why I wasn’t losing any weight. When I noticed my chiropractor had lost a significant amount of weight I asked him how he did it. P90X was his answer. I had never heard of P90X or seen any of the infomercials but I googled it and read about muscle confusion, it made sense as to why I wasn’t seeing any improvement. So I made the leap and sent away for the program, bought a pull-up bar, adjustable dumbbells, yoga mat & block and bands. The first few weeks were tough. It took me at least an hour and a half to finish the 54 minute work outs because I had to hit the pause button after almost every exercise. I had bought into the concept of “bringing it” but found myself bringing it to the porcelain deity more often than not. But each week I got stronger and after taking my 30 day pictures and seeing the tremendous improvement I was hooked. I feel like P90X has brought me back to looking like the person I remember. I’ve been told I look years younger and I feel years younger. We now have a saying in our house that we use whenever someone is not putting their all into something…. “Get down there Mr. Haus, this is P90X my brother”.

I had the opportunity to visit with one of my customers recently, and am always pleasantly pleased to hear how great they are doing with their program.  This customer has been doing P90X, and I wanted to share his quick P90X review:.

P90X Reviews: Being in Shape & being in P90X Shape.

From Paul: P90X has been both challenging and rewarding. It has introduced me to things I haven’t done before such as plyometrics, kick boxing and yoga. I will conclude week 10 tomorrow (Sunday, Sept 6th) after doing Kenpo X. The program has been a nice change of pace from what I normally do namely lifting weights and doing cardio (stationary bike and ski machine). It’s a totally legit program that I will recommend to anyone who is interested in getting in great shape. But I knew it would be from watching the infomercials. I have been interested and active in fitness and wellness for many, many years and was impressed with what the program offered. I just waited too long to take the plunge. I’m reminded of what former football coach/commentator John Madden liked to say about being in shape for football. His quote was something along the lines of “there is being in shape and then there is being in football shape”. Well, I have found the same holds true for P90X. There is being in shape and then there is being in P90X shape. I feel like I’m in better shape now than I probably ever have been and I am very glad to have experienced the program and its subsequent results.

Great job Paul!

Heather contacted me yesterday with this P90X Review, and as always, what an INSPIRATION! P90X works! Heather is a 39 year old mother of 2. I can’t help but think of how many ladies are out there, looking for a program that would help them get their body back after having children. Well, here ya go! Thank you for sharing Heather, and thank you for leading the way in fitness to your friends and co workers. Keep up the great work!

From Heather: “I ordered P90X last February and just completed the program and I am THRILLED with the results and have started 3 other people at my office on the program. I have been exercising at what I thought was an advanced level for the past 15+ years. I started doing the Firm workouts in my early 20’s, the Cathe Fredrich workouts in my 30’s and now at 39 I have completed P90X and am in the best shape ever; and this is after having 2 children. I have always exercised because I enjoy the escape, and the effects on my body were icing on the cake. Now, I am truly amazed at how different my body is after P90X. This is the first time I have gotten my body back after having my last son 4 years ago. I always thought if I wasn’t doing Cardio and squats and lunges with a weighted barbell that I wasn’t getting a good workout. I was very hesitant when I saw the program and there was only one dedicated leg workout. HOWEVER, the other workouts were so well rounded that they did work the legs functionally and the upper body workouts gave my legs some much needed rest.

With the same time constraints as everyone else these days, I never thought I would be able to stick with a program. However, I began to get up at 4 a.m. to fit it in because I was so thrilled with the results that I was seeing.

I am 5’4’’ and weighed 124 pounds at the start of the program. This morning I weighed 117 pounds and am finally at my goal weight.

I ordered ChaLEAN Extreme this weekend and can not wait to start it!”
