Tony Horton’s P90x One on One Volume 3, Disk 2 is Ab Ripper X 2 (aka. ARX2).  As Tony continues this journey towards MC2, he is experimenting, changing things up, finding ways to confuse our muscles and create something unique and new in the world of fitness.  On top of that, he just wants to have fun! :)

ARX2, is different than it’s older brother ARX in the original P90x program.  It is longer (42 minutes) and is slower.  Mainly that is due to Tony writing done information about the workout as he finds what he might add into the new P90x Mc2 next fall.  I enjoy the commentary and the information that Tony provides during the workouts.

You might be thinking how can I do 42 minutes of abs? We’ll don’t fret. It isn’t all working out.  In the end, this would most likely be a 20 minute AB workout if you went from one exercise to the next.

Tony’s Motto this workout is from Mohammad Ali himself “Training begins when you can’t do no more”.   He’s here to get us motivated, keep us entertained with his witty humor and bring to the masses the most effective training methods for getting in shape!  Do you like variety? Then come along for the ride!

I found that you are more engaged in this workout than the original ARX. You are focusing on keeping the core tight, which includes being more precise on the moves and form.  It’s not about getting in there and just crunching out the reps. IT’s about getting to the heart of working our CORE!

Details:

Length: 42 minutes (
Exercises: 20 core busting ab ripping moves. (exercises such as Banana Two Crunch, Side arm balance crunch, row your boat, the abronome and many more)
Reps: 20 – 30 depending on your level of expertise.
Focus: CORE.  This is different than ABX in that you are moving slower, focusing on the whole CORE and not just the abs. 

Watch the clip below.  I think you’ll find that if you are up to the P90x One on One challenge or looking to change up your routine, take a look and get on board. Any questions, let me know. Can always contact me.  I love to hear how things are going.  There is only one way to get healthy and fit!  That’s to press play!
