P90X Fitness Test – Step By Step Instructions

What Equipment Do You Need For P90X?

What Equipment Do You Need For P90X

So what equipment do you need for P90X? I’m assuming that you’ve obviously committed to starting P90X, so CONGRATS! The P90X workout is an incredible program that has changed my life (not to sound cliché) and it has transformed tens of thousands (if not hundreds and hundreds of thousands) of other people’s lives. I’ve been doing the program for over a year and a half now and I’m truly in the best shape of my life because of it.

If you are serious about getting the results you want with the program, then you must be prepared and have everything you need to do the program before you actually start. You don’t want to not be able to do some of the workouts or exercises because you don’t have the equipment that you need for P90X. “What equipment do you need for P90X,” is a question I get all the time so I’m going to go over exactly that in this blog post!Continue reading

P90X Phase 2 – I’m Fired Up! Are you?

P90X Phase 2

P90X Phase 2 here I come! It’s been quite sometime since I’ve done an update on where I’m at with my fitness journey (last time was in February) so I wanted to give you an update on what’s been going on, what I’m currently doing now, and where I’m headed.

The last I did an update I was doing a P90X Insanity Hybrid. I didn’t officially finish the P90X Insanity hybrid, rather I ended up just going back to P90X. I would do P90X and throw in the Insanity workouts every now and then (so kind of like the hybrid, but not as structured). I did that for about 3 months or so. I didn’t have any particular goals in mind during that time rather I just wanted to maintain what I had. Eventually I got tired of just doing “enough” to get by and maintain what I had so I figured it was time that I re-committed myself to P90X. So that’s what I did and now I’m in P90X Phase 2…Continue reading

P90X vs Insanity

The debate between P90X vs Insanity continues! I constantly get questions from people asking me if P90X is better than Insanity (or vice versa), or just asking which fitness program is better for them. I try to explain to everyone that trying to compare P90X and Insanity is like comparing apples to bananas. They are two completely different workout programs, but I figured I’d still try to do my best and compare the two.

Unlike a lot of people who try to do a P90X vs Insanity comparison, I’ve have gone through BOTH workout programs. I’ve been doing P90X for over a year now, and I’ve gone through a full 60 days of Insanity. I’ll go ahead and start off with a simple P90X vs Insanity comparison chart, and then I’ll give you my opinion on P90X and Insanity. Regardless what program you decide to do, you need to do what’s best for YOU!Continue reading
