Forget the home gym. Get a hot body in 90 days.

 
Have you ever wanted to get 
fit? I mean really fit and 
feel the results from day 
one. Tired of all the hyped 
up systems that don't do 
jack. Want something that's 
fun too?
 
Got two weeks? 
No, seriously! 
Because that's how long it 
will take you to see and feel
 the effects of your hard 
labor. As a matter of fact 
part of the P90X workout 
is to take your picture the 
first day you begin. 
 
After 30 days take it again. You will do this three or 
four times over ninety days so you can see how far 
you've come. You also track daily the amount of reps 
you've completed in a workout. The charts are provided 
for you.
 
P90X is an ‘extreme workout' but here's the thing. Most 
of the stuff you need to work out with P90X is a set of 
dumbbells or a resistance cord, a chin-up bar and a 
floor mat. 
 
See? You probably already have that stuff. If you don't 
a trip to Modell's will likely run you about $75. The 
DVD set which has twelve different workouts run you 
around $139 including shipping and handling. So if 
you have the items I mentioned already its $139, if 
not then it will cost you just over $200. 
 

P90X Fitness System

The system starts with the ‘Bring It' intro. It 
introduces you to the trainer of the program 
Tony Horton. He walks you through the basics of the 
system and explains the method that makes the product 
successful. That method is called ‘muscle confusion'.
 
Before I go on I want to tell you more about the 
workouts. This way you will better understand 
‘muscle confusion'. The twelve segments are: 
 
  • Chest & back
  • Plyometrics
  • Shoulders & Arms
  • Yoga X
  • Legs & Back
  • Kenpo X
  • X Stretch
  • Core Synergistics
  • Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
  • Back & Biceps
  • Cardio
  • Ab Ripper X
Over a ninety day period you will implement these 
segments in your exercise routine. By working on 
different muscles on different days your various 
muscles are never continuously strained. On rest 
days you only stretch your muscles. 
 
This is the basis behind ‘muscle confusion'. Your 
muscles never get used to the same routine because 
you are never doing the same routine.
This provides faster results. 
 
While the workout is intense you are instructed to 
do what you can and no more. Don't push yourself to 
hard, pace yourself, and take breaks when you need 
to. You should give yourself an hour to an hour and
a half the first week, especially if you're not used 
to working out.
 
Over a three month period you work your heart, lungs, 
chest, arms, legs, shoulders and back. This results 
in a nice muscular look, abs to die for, and improved 
health overall. You really feel good because you 
really look good.
 
Beachbody even provides a nutrition plan. They 
outline recommended meals to replace the nutrients 
you lose during the workout. There is also a website 
where you can talk to other users of P90X, get 
motivation and talk to fitness experts. These guys 
have thought of everything! 
And for only $139.00!
 
After you finish the initial 90 day training you 
can mix and match or continue to follow the 
recommended work out schedule. Just start over 
again from week one.
 
P90X is great if you're trying to get buff for 
the summer. You spend spring getting the body you 
want and show it off the next 90 days of summer on 
the beach. Most of all you can take pride in what 
you've accomplished!
 
But as with anything you have to stick with it. 
Forget home gyms though. Just buy P90X.

great hub! I work out to the old Beach Body Power 90 DVD. That is what prompted the request. I started working out almost two months ago. I have lost significant weight (20 pounds) and have really firmed up. I no longer take meds for blood pressure and I feel great! Its a great system.
