Does P90x Work For Women? - I'd Say Yes

I’m sure you’ve seen the infomercial, you’d have to be living on another planet to have not come across a P90x infomercial at some point in your life. You might be wondering if P90x really works and more specifically does P90x work for women. In this post I’m going to be answering your question and my goals is to help you decide if P90x is right you.

The short and quick answer is yes, P90x does work for women. A women, at any fitness level, and at any age will get great results with P90x in 90 days. The infomercial makes the workout program seem super intense, and I understand how it can be intimidating to some women, heck, it even intimates me. The truth is that although P90x is an intense program, it can be modified to suit any individual at any fitness level. For example, if doing regular push ups is to difficult, you have the option to drop to your knees to make them a little easier. After some time goes by and you build up some strength, you’ll eventually be able to do regular push ups, it just takes some time.

All f the modified moves are demonstrated in the videos and they do an excellent job of explaining exactly how do to them. The best advice while doing P90x which I’m taking directly from Tony Horton himself is to “do your best, and forget the rest”. Don’t expect to be able to keep up with the people in the video right from the start, if you could keep up, that would mean it is too easy for you. Over the course of 90 days, you’ll be amazed out how far you’ve progressed.

Does P90x Work For Women? – Ask Jill?

Below is Jill’s story and experience with P90x, she got amazing results and is inspiration and motivation to women everywhere.

So does P90x work for women? I think Jill’s story above is undeniable proof that is definitely does. It is important to know that P90x is not a get skinny quick trick, fad diet, or some kind of miracle pill that claims to make you lose 20 pounds of fat in 14 days. P90x is challenging workout program that implement consistent exercise with eating healthy. Losing weight and getting in shape is hard, it takes real work and discipline. Those looking for quick fixes and spending money on miracle diet pills end up always being disappointed.

Does P90x work for women? – It does if you follow the program.

Another concern women often have is hat P90x will make them too muscly or too bulky. Don’t worry, this is something that is not an issue. Often times women stick to a 100% cardio exercise program, which is NOT what you want to do. Strength training provides many benefits that you will be missing out on if you are not doing it. Don’t believe me? Just read this article from www.womenshealthmag.com. As for bulking up, there are also many reasons why women don’t need to be concerned about bulking up. Here is a great article that lists the top 10 reasons that heavy weight won’t bulk up a women.

So in conclusion, the answer to the question, “Does P90 work for women?”, is a definite YES. Take the challenge, it can litelrally change your life.

Tough Mudder Training

Have you signed up for the Tough Mudder or are thinking about signing up for the Tough Mudder and want to know how you can plan your Tough Mudder training? If so, you’re in the right place. 2 days ago I completed the Tough Mudder and my body is incredibly sore as I type this, although I kind of expected it too be much worse. The Tough Mudder was hard, but I expected to drop to knees as I crossed the finished line, which wasn’t the case.

Tough Mudder Training – Where To Start

Giving specific Tough Mudder training advice is nearly impossible, there are so many variables involved with this course that you will need to be in the best possible shape that you can. There are no “Tough Mudder training” specific exercises per se.

Running – Every Tough Mudder event is 10-12 miles long, which in my opinion, is far. I’m in decent shape, but I’m not much of a runner so the biggest focus of my Tough Mudder training was distance running. 2 months prior to the event I ran 2-3 times a week while also doing P90x2 workout. I ran anywhere from 3-5 miles, and I’d stop and walk at times to catch my breath. I was a little concerned that I’d run out of gas during the Tough Mudder because in my training, I was out of breathe usually around the 3 mile mark.

If you can run 5 miles without stopping, you’ll be ready for the Tough Mudder. The running was actually the easy part. From my experience, there were many times throughout the event that I had to stop and wait at an obstacle. There were so many people that the obstacles often got backed up and I had to wait a few minutes. This gave me a few minutes to catch my breath. And with 25 obstacles, this provided for a lot of short breaks.

Tough Mudder Training – Best Combination

A great Tough Mudder training combination would be start P90x 90 days before the event, and mix in some distance running a few times a week. The Tough Mudder requires strength and a high overall fitness level, which P90x is perfect for. Not only will you be ready for the Tough Mudder, but you will probably be in the best shape of your life.

In addition to P90x, you will want to add some distance running into your Tough Mudder training schedule. You can easily fit 3 runs a week into the P90x schedule. One option can be to go for a short run on the same day as the Chest & Back P90x workouts, then replace the Kenpo X routine with a run, and go for a run on you rest day. It will be tough, but it is doable and will be the best way to prepare for the Tough Mudder.

But I don’t have 90 days for Tough Mudder training!…What should I do?

If you don’t have 90 days to prepare for the Tough Mudder, don’t worry, you’ll be able to get ready in 60 days. I think Insanity would also be a great way to prepare for the Tough Mudder. Insanity will work on your cardio and your strength, which will be what you need to be able to make through the Tough Mudder. If you follow the Insanity workout exactly as it is laid out and use only that for your Tough Mudder training, you’ll be in great shape on the day of the event.

Donna D'Errico Does P90x

P90x has become so popular that it has been hard to keep up with all of the professional athletes and celebrities that are talking about it, but I couldn’t leave this one out. Blonde bombshell, former Baywatch babe, playboy model, and ex-wife of rock star Nikki Sixx, Donna D’Errico has been tweeting about P90x.

I can remember being in love with Donna D’Errico back in the late nineties when she was on Baywatch. If I can remember correctly, I think she replaced Pamela Anderson on the show. Back then Baywatch was one of my favorite shows, not so much for the story lines, but really because I loved looking at the …um… beautiful beaches of California. Hey can you plan be me? I was like 15 years old and we didn’t have the internet back then so we had to take what we could get…lol.

Anyhow, Donna has recently been tweeting about her P90x workouts, check out one of her recent tweets below:

“Ok seriously @CarlDaikeler. I just did @P90X Chest and Back for the 2nd time – and I think it’s really working!”

Follow Donna On Twitter

I can’t think of any other person that would rather have endorse the P90x CHEST and back workout…well, maybe Kate Upton. But  either way, as a Beachbody Coach is great to this kind of free publicity for Beachbody products. Beachbody creates awesome products that have proven to get results. I’m happy to be a part of this great company!

Eddie "Piolin" Sotelo P90x Weight Loss Challenge

¿Hablas español?

Popular Latino radio and television personality Eddie ‘Piolin’ Sotelo is well-known for putting the best interests of his listeners first. His past campaigns have encouraged them to vote, register for citizenship and lend their voices to calls for immigration reform.

Now ‘Piolin’ – a nickname picked up in his youth that translates as ‘tweety bird’ – is launching his most important campaign ever – one that could literally save lives. He has joined forces with Beachbody, the company behind the popular P90X workout, and announced the Piolin P90x weight loss challenge.

The Piolin P90x weight loss challenge is of particular importance to his core audience as studies have shown that Latino adults are significantly more likely to be obese or overweight than their non-Hispanic counterparts.

This potentially spells trouble for future generations as children tend to follow the lead of their parents when it comes to their own exercise and fitness regimes. Around 30 per cent of Mexican-American children aged five and under are classed as obese. This is particularly disturbing as, within the entire American population, just under 25 per cent are classed as obese. Children with weight problems at such a young age tend to retain them into adolescence.

The P90x program is an intense training regimen that promises to completely transform your body, shredding fat, toning muscles and boosting fitness levels, over the course of three months.

At the core of the regimen is something called muscle confusion. Most workout systems produce great results in the early stages but then reach a plateau as the body becomes used to the level of exercise. With P90x, the intensity level is increased at regular intervals and new exercises and movements are introduced throughout. This means your muscles never have a chance to get used to a particular set of stimuli and continue to be pushed to their limits.

P90x also has the advantage of being a home-based program, saving on gym membership but also allowing for a great element of flexibility in when and where workouts are carried out, making it easier to complete the entire regimen regardless of your schedule. Muscle confusion allows gains to be made throughout the entire 90 day period and many devotees of the program have seen spectacular physical transformations as a result.

While some may worry that, even with celebrity endorsement as part of the Piolin weight loss challenge, the P90x system is nothing more than a fad, there is clear, indpendent evidence that it actually works. A study by the American Council on Exercise found that P90x actually surpasses the fitness industry standards when it comes to boosting cardio-respiratory performance and losing weight.

P90x also includes a nutritional plan and a major part of the Piolin weight loss challenge will focus on the importance of eating the right foods as well as undertaking a rigorous exercise program in order to maintain good overall health.

Motivation is an important factor in weight loss and fitness training. The Piolin weight loss challenge will provide plenty as he will be talking about the products and the program on his hugely popular radio show on a regular basis. There will also be live events where listeners will be able to learn more and try out some Beachbody nutritional products for themselves including the Shakeology meal replacement drink.

Tony Horton Is One America's Fittest People Of All Time

Beachbody’s golden boy, Tony Horton has made the Men’s Health list of fittest Americans of all time! Tony Horton is the creator and trainer behind the popular home workout program P90x. If you haven’t heard of P9ox by now, you must be living under a rock. If you haven’t done P90x yourself, I am sure you know someone that has done it or is doing it. P90x is a great workout program that can be done by anyone and is has even become popular among celebrites and professional athletes.

I love seeing this type of publicity and exposure for Beachbody products. It helps create brand awareness and demand, which makes my job as a Beachbody Coach much easier. I don’t have to explain what P90x is because everyone already know what it is, by the time they get to me, they just want to know how they can buy P90x.

Congratulations to Tony Horton for making the list. Here is a list of a few other names that also made the list:

• Chuck Norris
• Jack LaLanne
• Muhammad Ali
• Carl Lewis

As you can tell from the list above, Tony is among legends. Tony Horton might be the most popular trainer in the world, he is in the homes of millions of people helping them get in shape. His entire catalog is estimated to have generated $500 million in sales revenue and that number is continues to grow. The reason for Tony Horton’s and P90x’s popularity is simple, the program works.

One of the biggest complaints about the original P90x is that the Yoga x workout was too long. At 90 minutes, I have to agree with the masses, 90 minutes is a long workout. Well I have some great news. The yoga workout in P90x2 is only an hour long. So you can stop the worrying now that you know when the yoga day comes it will only be a 60 minute session.

Another change that has been made that I think you will be happy about is that the P90x2 Schedule is only 5 days a week. The workouts are a little more vigorous than the original P90x workouts, so they wanted to give you an extra rest day.

More Differences Between P90x And P90x2:

P90x was created to get you in the best shape of your life where as P90x2 was created to improve athletic performance, with getting in shape and getting a better body as an inevitable byproduct.

Both P90x and P90x2 use the “muscle confusion” techniques, but P90x2 goes a step further and also incorporates Post-Activation Potentiation (wordpress showed the word “potentiation” as a misplessing, so I googled it to make sure it was a real word and not something Tony Horton just made up, this was the definition: To promote or strengthen (a biochemical or physiological action or effect). Anyhow, this Post-Activation Potentiation will stimulate mobility, power, speed, and agility to improve your overall athletic performance.

Unlike P90x, the phases of P90x2 are not set in stone. After doing P90x, you should be aware of your body and be able to adjust the phases to suit yourself. The phases of P90x2 range of 3-6 weeks and are changed at your own discretion. Everyone is different, so one phase might need to be longer or shorter, it all depends on the individual. Being able to determine the length of your phases will help customize the program so you can achieve the best results possible.

There are some more differences between P90x and P90x2 that you can see in the video below. Tony Horton himself explains the differences and why this workout is a must have if you want to keep the muscle confusion and results coming.

As you can see, P90x2 is a totally different workout from the original P90x. Be sure to order P90x2 through the link below so you get the 2 exclusive bonus workouts.

Ceci Won $1000 In The Beachbody Challenge

Congratulations to Ceci P., from Puerto Rico. Ceci lost 117 pounds with the P90x and Insanity workout, and by drinking Shakeology and the P90x Recovery Drink.  Ceci’s before and after pictures look like a totally different person. Ceci had amazing results and is an inspiration to us all. She is one of the 10 $1000 Beachbody Challenge winners for the month of October.

As a Beachbody Coach, I’m often asked what workout program I would recommend for individuals and my answer always depends on the person. It depends on their current fitness level and what their goals are. Normally, I would think twice about recommending P90x to start out with for a 237 pound woman. P90x is an intense workout and is challenging even for someone that is in good shape. But Ceci’s results are making me rethink my opinions when recommending a workout program.  Just because someone is a hundred pounds overweight, doesn’t mean that they won’t be able to do P90x, Ceci is perfect proof of that.

P90x is a workout program that can be done by anyone at any fitness level. It is great because the moves and exercises can be modified to the individual’s fitness level, which is why everyone who follows the P90x workout program will see results.

Congratulation again to Ceci! I have a feeling she will be in the running for the Beachbody Challenge $5000 quarterly prize, and even the $100,000 grand finale prize.

I actually watch the Dr. Oz on occassion when I can fit it into my day. It is a pretty good show, it mainly is about health and fitness, and I always pick up so good tips or learn something new evertime I watch.

The sequel to Tony Horton’s P90x, P90x2, is set to be released soon am I am sure Tony will find a way to fit in a plug for it, and the original.

Tony is also the fitness instructor feature in the hit workout programs, 10 Minute Trainer, and Power90.

Be sure to tune in Monday or set your DVRs so you can catch the show. I will make an update on Monday to this post to write about how Tony Horton’s appearance on Dr. Oz goes.

Maybe Tony will give Dr. Oz a sample of Shakeology and he can give a review of it.

Ben Stiller Does P90x

P90x makes the Tonight Show! Last night, shrunken comedy actor, Jonah Hill, appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Jonah was noticeably smaller and it was obvious he had lost a considerable amount of weight. Jay asked Jonah what he did to lose the weight and Jonah replied by saying he was eating right and exercising. What a shocker? I never would of thought that eating healthy and exercising would make someone lose weight, what a concept! Anyhow, Jonah went on to mention that his costar in a new movie he is currently working on, Ben Stiller, is doing P90x and how he is in “crazy good shape”. He also mentioned that Ben convinced him to try P90x, although he stated that he hasn’t really dived into it yet.

I’m adding Ben Stiller and Jonah Hill to the list of professional athletes and celebrities that do P90x.

As a Beachbody Coach, it is always great to see Beachbody products in the media. Ben Stiller is in amazing shape and him crediting P90x for that says a lot. P90x is not just some silly fad. It is an intense workout that has become so popular because it produces results for anyone who follows the program. There is no fancy equipment needed, and it can be done in a small one bedroom apartment.

See Jonah’s interview with Jay Leno in the video below:
