P90X Workout Sheets – Download It ALL Here!
Looking for the P90X workout sheets? Then you’ve found what you need because on this page you’ll find the P90X workout sheets, P90X calendar and some tips and suggestions on how exactly to use them. When doing P90X I highly recommend that you use the P90X workout sheets to keep track of your reps, the weight you use, and to just take notes on any issues or problems that you have. This is CRITICAL to your success with P90X! This will help you to track your progress and to see where you’re going.

Power 90 vs P90X
Power 90 vs P90X! I get a lot of questions from people asking me which program is better and what program they should start with. I’ll first get the “which program is better” question out of the way.

I’m first going to go into an overview of each fitness program, and then I’ll give you 3 simple questions to ask yourself that will help you determine which program is right for you.Continue reading
Target Heart Rate Zone – How To Get Into The Zone During P90X
If you’re doing the P90X workout, you’ve probably heard Tony Horton say during Kenpo X to “check your heart to see if your in the zone” or something similar to that. During the below video, I’m going to show you exactly how to calculate your different target heart rate zones that you are going to want to work towards hitting during your workouts. These target heart rate zones aren’t just for P90X, they are for Insanity, or any other workout you’re doing.
It’s very important that you know your zone. By knowing your target heart rate zones, you’ll know if you’re at an intensity level that will give you the best possible results. You’ll also know if you’re pushing yourself too hard. Check out the video now!Continue reading
