P90X2 Phase 1 – CHECK!

YO! Phase 1 of P90X2 is…Officially…DONE!!! I am SO fired up to be going into Phase 2! In this blog post I want to let you know how Phase 1 of P90X2 went, and then give you a quick recap on how Chest + Back + Balance went (my first workout of Phase 2).

So far the X2 Balance + Power workout is my SECOND favorite workout in the P90X2 workout program so far (right behind X2 Total Body). It’s an ultra challenging workout, but it incorporates lots of resistance training which I love.Continue reading
