#Original p90x workout schedule series

But unlike the original P90X, there are no weights used. This is a total body killer, and even Tony has to dig deeper to get it done. Neither the leg work nor upper work is killer on its own, but this particular combo will leave you very, very worn out by the end. You would think this should be a cut and dried workout, but in truth it will push you. Ten moves, done twice with alternating pull-ups and leg work. Minimal time wasted during sets.Д¬ONS: Honestly, I cannot think of one for this. PROS: Heavy muscle focus, and minimal attention to вЂњcoreвЂќ which has gotten more attention than it deserves lately. 3 sets of Crazy EightsвЂ¦no better way to end a workout! This is right up there with my personal favorite of вЂњJust ArmsвЂќ from Volume One, so it gets an easy 5 stars! Shoulders get a burn, triceps focus on weak spots, and biceps pump some good heavy weight. The stability ball is only used once for Triceps french presses, but you could just as easily use a bench. I loved this one from start to finish because itвЂ™s old school iron pumping at its best! 6 sets with 3 moves done 3 times. PROS: Almost all the moves are new, and really, really good.Д¬ONS: Way, waaaaaay too much time consumed in talking and writing. Barely gets a 3 out of 5.Д®quipment needed: Medicine ball used in one move. I understand the need for experimentation, but at the same time people buy workout videos to have a workout. The final version in X2 is a rocking killer, but this one felt as if it was made up on the fly.

I had my remote handy to fast-forward past the breaks where Tony was writing stuff down while my abs were cooling off. While the workout will leave your gut sufficiently bused, there is a lot, and I do mean a lot of downtime. Unfortunately, only one move utilizes a medicine ball. ItвЂ™s 20 moves at 20 reps a pop with the odd move that goes for more. In what thankfully wasnвЂ™t the actual time in the X2 version, Tony adds a whole new level of crunches. What you will notice immediately is the timeвЂ¦around 45 minutes. P90X chin-up bar inadequate for many moves. A good workout to mix up the Chest and Back days.Д¬ONS: Core work comes at the expense of muscle isolation. PROS: You whole body will get a workout as you must engage the core to the extreme. Personally, my back and balls were bustedвЂ¦but my chest still had more due to not being completely isolated.Д®quipment needed: Chin-Up bar, stability ball, and as many as 4 medicine/basketballs. 2 which in many ways was somewhat of a disappointment. If this is any indication of how difficult things are going to be, then Vol. No weights are involved in any exercise for this one. A catch is that for some moves as many as 4 balls are used, so unless your home gym is well stocked youвЂ™ll have to modify.

This one works your core also as balance is required with pushups on the balls. As it is, I consider the original to be a routine I already have a hard time surviving through without seeing little white spots in my vision! So what about CB&B? If CB is hard, then CB&B is at least on par in terms of overall difficulty. Only this time stability and medicine balls are added to the mix. This is obviously meant to go toe to toe with the original P90X Chest and Back. So how is Volume 3 going to compare? Follow me if you dare. But there were also a lot of what I consider to be less than stellar routines ( Super Cardio, UML, Killer Abs to name a few ). There are plenty of invaluable gems ( Just Arms, Fountain of Youth Yoga, Diamond Delts, Core Ball Sandwich, etcвЂ¦ ). My feelings on the first 2 volumes were mixed. In terms of actual production, the only real difference is widescreen Hi-Def and some different camera angles. IвЂ™m not going to repeat the same stuff here that you can find anywhere else, but instead am going to do a review on each DVD as it comes available. Volume 3 was the test bed for P90X2 which was released in December 2011. As a subscriber to the first two One on One volumes, I now reveal what Tony has come up with for Volume 3.

And the One on One Series is no exception. IвЂ™m obviously a big fan of the original P90X and pretty much anything that comes from the creative mind of Tony Horton.
