But here’s a caveat: P90X is not just another fat-burning trend that promises amazing results within a week. In fact, it is a tough program that will force you to give up 3 months of your couch potato life. It’s not for everyone and that’s a fact. Yes, you need 3 months including 6 days a week of intense P90X workout routines.
It might be too intimidating at first but if you stay focused to your goals, and take it day by day till the last day, you could very well have your own transformation story as I have.
I’m sure you’ve heard about impressive P90X stories, watched P90X infomercials, and have been thinking about trying it yourself. You’ve heard your friends have tried it but not really actually did the program as the program suggests front to back, and you may have even gotten a burned copy from the pathetic piracy prince and it was incomplete here and there so it was frustrating when you were in the middle of a great workout and then it skips 15 minutes of the program somewhere along the line.
So you got tired if it and quit. It happens and I know because me and my friends have been through this too before I actually decided to do it right and commit. The P90X workout routine only works when done right once again. That means following the fitness and nutrition guide both for the full 90 days, along with staying accountable with your Beachbody coach and all the resources they have to offer to you for free during your journey.
(Check out this quick video. Our team is shown in the sky blue shirts from .07 seconds to .12 seconds in the video. There was about 100 of us there working out with Tony Horton, Shaun T, Les Mills Pump Trainers, and more. Location was the Las Vegas Strip (Tropicana) at 6a.m. in the morning. Yes our team knows how to Bring It!)
But what really makes P90X workout routine a cut above the rest? Actually doing it and not just watching it or parking it on your book shelf like I did at first, is a good start.

Let’s forget all the hype for now and explore if the P90X workout routine has the right edge you’ve been looking for. Keep in mind, that if you’ve been someone who hasn’t been working out in a long time, you may need to dip into the Power 90 before you jump into the Extreme version of P90X, which was created for Power 90 graduates. Yes, the P90X workout routine wasn’t the first of it’s line, but certainly the most popular to date. Here’s why….
P90X Workout Routine: Isolation vs. Full-Body
When I first tried the P90X workout routine to meet my fitness goals, I was pleasantly surprised for two reasons: First, P90X is challenging enough to put my boredom away. Second, it’s a complete body conditioning program that helps to unleash your personal best.
When I say ‘complete’, that simply means P90X can put one’s strength, stamina, endurance and flexibility to test. This has been made possible by isolation and full body exercises. Majority of the 12 P90X workouts are tailored to build specific muscle groups. AB Ripper X, for example, can help you get that six-pack abs in no time. Other target-specific moves are also known to bulk up other parts of the body like the chest, legs, shoulders and back.
Full-body workouts, on the other hand, can drive you nuts especially if yoga is not your cup of tea. I personally dislike yoga but P90X has helped me focus on the larger picture. Without full-body P90X workout routines like Plyometrics, Yoga X and Kenpo X, I would not be able to boost my strength and flexibility at the same time.
When I first started P90X, I was so frustrated with how I couldn’t even get close to doing Yoga like they did on the DVD. You can bet that I was calling Tony Horton ugly names. Come to find out, that was just the competitive side in me being tamed. Realizing my learning curve and how much room I had to improve. That’s why the P90X workout routine was designed that way, to challenge you for 90 days constantly.
P90X Workout Routine: Cardio vs. Strength
Although not as intense as Insanity, cardio lovers can definitely count on P90X for a round of heart-friendly workouts. If you’re on kickboxing, Kenpo X can definitely meet your needs. At first, Kenpo X proved to be my easiest workout, so I upped the intensity by holding onto 2.5 lb weights during the workout for more intensity and resistance. It definitely made a world of difference for me.
Plyometrics, on the other hand, is more jump training for agility and vertical strength and power, while Core Synergistics effectively combines push ups, lying core and leg exercises so you can meet your target heart rate every time. Now, if your focus is more on gaining core strength, each P90X workout routine won’t disappoint you. Simple moves like push ups and pull-ups can really go a long way in boosting your upper body strength with the use of low-cost equipment like resistance bands. Increasing one’s lower body strength is also possible, thanks to simple at-home exercise moves like squatting and sit-ups.
P90X Workout Routine: Get the Best Results!
If you work hard enough, P90X can help you achieve jaw-dropping transformations. But that won’t be possible for people who are after get-fit-quick ideas and too lazy to stretch out.
I know people that had to go through p90x for 18 months straight, but in the end, lost 242 lbs. Here is his story
Was it worth 18 months of P90X? You better believe it. I had the honor to see Richard Neil in Las Vegas this year and all I can say is that you can absolutely see in his eyes that he is thankful for his new life. Congrats again, Richard! You have definitely earned it.
So let’s get back to you……P90X workout routine is not just about exercises per se. As a matter of fact, you can have your battle halfway done if you follow both the fitness and diet plans by heart. In other words, P90X workout routine is not the be-all, end-all of P90X success. This is just an overview of P90X workout routine so please bear in mind that in order to achieve optimum results, you must not cherry pick workouts you only feel comfortable with.
Adhere to every P90X workout routine and you’ll surely give yourself the best chance of getting the body you desire.
