I didn’t see the times listed in the P90X2 Fitness Guide…however from doing the workouts in the first Phase they all are around 60 minutes (Ab Ripper X 2 is 15 minutes). Hope that helps Paula!

Yea the whole foam rolling thing is brand new to me…Still trying to learn how to use it properly. CONGRATS for completing 2 weeks of the first Phase already! Yea I’m think I will probably do the same thing and switch between ARX2 and the original ARX. I’ll probably do the same thing with Plyometrics just to things exciting.

I think as we learn the moves we’re going to continue enjoying the workouts more and more. BRING IT!!! Keep us updated on your progress Sally!

Doing stuff on one leg and on a stability ball is harder than I thought. The X2 workouts are awesome though. I have been preparing myself for X2 by doing the strength portion of the vol 3 one on one dvds, like v sculpt and legs & balance. So I wasnt really prepared for the stability ball workouts. I actually fell off of it while doing the 1 Arm Chest Press, haha!

I would not say I’m disappointed, but one thing I have a hard time with is the fact that all tapes in phase 1 involve the exact same warm up routine. And the foam roller thing, which for people who are busy and need to optimize their time for exercise seems like a waste of time. NOW, keep in mind, I do know the deep tissue massage is a positive thing and might prevent injury, but I think it could have been moved to the end of the tape and kept as an optional goodie. Just my opinion, of course. I find myself fast forwarding that part and moving on.

I completed two weeks of the first phase, but did one Kenpo in one of the off days, and used ab ripperX instead of ab ripper Xs in one of the weeks.

I will go on and see where it takes me, I have to say the second week I enjoyed more than the first… :-)

Why are you disappointed Brian? Not sure I’m following you in regards to what you said about the heart rate monitor.

P90X2 incorporates a lot of changes then what’s in the original P90X. It incorporates the latest in sports science and isn’t meant to be exactly like the original. For me, and a lot of people…we resist change and don’t enjoy it. However, change isn’t necessarily a bad thing and I think with P90X2 it’s a positive thing that will help those willing to embrace it. Just do the best you can and stay positive…Once you get through a full round of P90X2 you can always blend the 2 programs together to get the results you want.

By the way…when you get to the Strength phase you may enjoy it more since it is structured similar to the original P90X.
