FIT CLUB MONDAY
P90X is the leading Beachbody workout! I have done the X 3 times and it is a great workout and I did get very good results. I like the fact that you do a different workout every day, good for those that get bored easily. P90X is a 90 day program. It consists of weight workouts, cardio workouts, yoga, an ab workout and stretch. You do a combination of these each day for 30 days and then the combination switches up. This creates muscle confusion and will help you to get the best results possible.
In order to get the best results you will need a couple of things. Weights or bands, a pull-up bar and a yoga mat. I also LOVE Tony Horton! He makes the workouts fun! I got to meet him on a coupld of occasions. He's very nice!
I really like the Beachbody P90X pull-up bar. It fits in your door frame and works perfectly. I had the tension-spring kind and ended up in the emergency room when I did my first round of the workouts. So, be sure to get a good, stable bar!
If you have wanted to try P90X, here is your chance (if you live in my area!!). Tonight, we will have Fit Club at 7 PM and we will be doing Cardio X. This is a great way to try out the cardio and yoga workouts. I love this routine!!
