It’s no secret that I am a fan of the P90X workout plan. It’s really effect and thousands of people have seen great results with it, but unfortunately it isn’t free in fact even on sale you are going to pay $100 for the complete program.
Fortunately for those of us with big bellies and skinny wallets can find a ton of really great workout videos online for FREE
Below are some good videos that I’ve found. You really need to wade though a lot of crappy videos to find a few diamonds in the rough on youtube, these are all good, watch the videos, subscribe to their channels and get fit 
Enjoy and hopeful you can mix and match the videos to create your own total body exercise plan.

P90X
Ok, so I have decided to take the plunge and start the P90X workout program. I am coming to the end of my current workout routine at the gym and it’s time to mix it up a bit.
For those that don’t know what P90X is, it’s a home workout program designed by trainer Tony Horton. The system consists of 12 workouts (listed below) a diet plan and a workout calender. You can see the sales pitch HERE.
I was very fortunate in the fact that I didn’t have to pay for the program. A friend of mine purchased it several months ago and just never really kept up with it. I traded it to for my Abs Diet book. It retails for $119.95 so I’m happy with the savings.
I’ve had a chance to watch all of the workouts, read some reviews, watch the infomercial (I have it PVR’d) and look over the diet plan, which I will not be following. Not that there is anything wrong with it, it’s just that they really like to promote their own power bars and shakes.
There are 3 phases to P90X nutrition plan:
Phase 1 – Fat Shredder:
Focused on High protein meal plan designed to help give you strength and “shred” your fat.
Phase 2 – Energy Boost:
A little more balanced meal plan where you get to add some complex carbs back into your diet.
Phase 3 – Endurance Maximizer
Much more focus on complex carbs, pretty moderate protein and fat intakes.
Nothing groundbreaking here but it fits with the overall theme of changing things often. I will be following something similar but more based on my own likes and dislikes. I already eat a lot of protein rich foods so I’ll be focusing on cut back on the carbs and saturated fat.
What equipment to you need?
Other than the DVD’s themselves you’ll need to get the following:
-
* Good quality yoga mat or a rubber mat.
* Dumbbells with a decent amount of weight (10-30 lbs) or resistance bands.
* A Chair or a Stool.
* A chin up/pull up bar (this can be difficult to obtain, depending on your living arrangements)
Here is a picture of my homemade pull up bar. You can buy doorway pull up bars that are just as effective. Here is an example
. Mine is very crude but for $20 it gets the job done.
The 12 At Home Workouts:
These are the 12 workouts that come with the program:
* Chest and Back
* Plyometrics
* Shoulders and Arms
* Yoga X
* Legs and Back
* Kenpo X
* X Stretch
* Core Synergistics
* Chest, Shoulders and Triceps
* Back and Biceps
* Cardio X
* Ab Ripper X
None of them look even remotely easy. But that is the whole point of this program. To work yourself hard and push your body to be the best it can be. To coin their slogan you need to “Bring It” and man do I plan to.
Who else is doing P90X?
I want to know who else out there is doing P90X? Have you tried it already and if so was it all you thought it would be? Let me know your thoughts and wish me luck. By the looks of the Ab Ripper X workout I think I’ll need it.
