Day 8 – P90x Chest and Back. Love this workout. Nothing better than an hour of pushing and pulling. Get in there, do a ton of pushup’s and pull-up’s and walk away with arms like noodles. It’s a wonderful feeling it really is. :). Even though I’ve done this workout many a many times, it is never hard to push myself further than the last or find ways to create the necessary burn to ensure I'm getting results. Pushing and pulling are a corner stone of what Tony loves to do in this program. Don’t fear that you can’t do a pull-up or pushup or only a couple. You start out slow, you do your best and you work from there. As you get stronger and develop the muscle base, you’ll be amazed at what you find yourself being able to do. Never doubt your capabilities!
Day 9 – Insanity Plyometric Cardio Circuit. What can I say? Shaun Thompson, and Insanity at its best. He’ pushes you from the first moment with the warm-up. Which is 10 minutes long non-stop. That’s all before the actually stretching portion. this is what I love about the program. Shaun puts a great emphasis on being ready for the main event as I’ll call it here. You get the body in the right frame of ‘mind’ so to speak to dig deep and get solid results and sweat your booty off for x amount of time. There has never been a dry shirt after an Insanity workout in the 2+ rounds I’ve done and continue to do the workouts from it. Just doesn’t happen.
Day 10 – P90x Shoulders & Arms. You do multiple sets/rotations of shoulders, biceps and triceps exercises. If by the end of this workout, your upper body isn’t tired you’ve done something wrong. Your biceps should be exploding by the time you are done. It is an amazing feeling. I love it. I’ve been increasing the weight and it’s really making a difference.
You need to make sure as you do the resistance workouts that you are making a decision on what you want to accomplish. As Tony always says, are you and 8-10 rep person or a 12 – 15 rep person. Do you want to get more size or do you want to get a leaner look. That is up to you. Find the right weight/band and get the job done. You can modify these programs/workouts to fit whatever your goals are. That is why they continue to do so well and have such a huge base of people using it. Anyone can. No matter what your level, I feel you can get in and do P90x. Modify to fit you.
