P90X Review

So many people have been asking me how I have became healthy and fit, I felt it was time for a P90X review! I have had both friends and family asking me for advice on whether P90X truly works, how it works, and if they would be a good fit. Every time I am asked about it I get excited because it’s an opportunity for me to share my story and hopefully help create ones for others.

First off, I always start by telling them that I am not a professional in fitness by any stretch of the imagination. Most if not all the knowledge I have from health and fitness has been acquired through my own searching, questioning, and digging. I am a firm believer in being all natural. Good hard American work, proper nutrition, and a powerful attitude are what drive me, not short cuts.


When people ask me man how did you get so cut? I tell them through P90X, my diet and attitude. They get that I worked out and see that as the main reason for my success but what they don’t understand is that it’s not about the workouts. Diet plays a key role.


I have successfully completed two full rounds of P90X, along with many hybrids of Insanity and Rev Abs. P90X is always my bread and butter.


The program is based around a total and complete workout program. For six days a week you do a different workout that is designed to help you maximize results in the 90 days. A typical week could look like this:


Monday- Chest and Back


Tuesday- Plyo


Wednesday – Shoulders and Arms


Thursday – Yoga


Friday – Legs and Back


Saturday – Kenpo


It is always changing and always adapting to a new phase.


The biggest part is the nutrition. This is where you separate your results from good to holy cow! Nutrition plays such a powerful part is actually more important for the 6-pack abs then the workouts. 80% of your results comes from your food intake. The P90X guides does what so many other programs leave out and that is details everything you should eat J It is all right there for you!


I came into P90X with the idea that I wanted to lose some weight, get ripped, and feel better. If you read my success story you will see that it really changed my whole outlook on some many things. P90X was a release for me. It was my time to shine and prove to myself I could do it despite all my other “problems”.


If you are thinking about giving it chance I highly recommend it. It changed my life for ever. In closing, I want to leave a few tips for you to get started.


Equipment:


Here is a list of things you will need to get started.


- Pull-Up Bar


* Beachbody had a great one or you can go with the Iron Gym. It tends to be


smaller.


- Dumbbells or Resistance Bands


* The Bands are cheaper but I am weights guy J


- Yoga Mat


* Tried to do it without one and I strongly recommend one.


- Push Up Stands


* Tony Hortons Power Stands are great. They are designed to not roll on you.


- Good Shoes


* A must J


Supplements:


These are a must and I will outline my favorite in another blog.


My experience with P90X has been life changing. I have suffered with lots of anxiety because of heart issue and it was hard for me to find relief outside of alcohol. I don’t if you are in that place in your life but ask yourself is it worth living in fear all the time?


P90X gave me the power to keep living without worrying about my condition. This program set me free and would I recommend it?


You bet! It could be the smartest thing you have every done and spent money on.

Creating the IMPACT PERSON


I know many people love watching the Show The Biggest Loser. On the surface it is about weight loss. Can a guy or gal drop the most weight? Get their health under control? Lower blood pressure or cholesterol? Whatever it is we place the focus on health. The greatest part is that tends to be just the side affects.

Everyday people start programs because they want to change the health effect. The best part is during that journey the price actually becomes the price. Everyone is meant for something great. When we step outside of our comfort zone and do a program or embark on the fitness journey we gain something so much valuable than that.

You may get the six pack, or the arms, or lowered blood pressure but the true value comes in the person you become in the end. It is never about the weight loss. It is about the person you are when it is over. It is about the journey. You see you are never the same person you where before you started. You are now an impact person. You now have the power to take on the world in a different light.

People look to you and say what is it that you do differently and all you say is, I changed. I became something I never thought I could. What you don’t understand, before hand, is that you are working not on your health but on YOU. Becoming an impact person is what you were meant to be. People are looking at you now saying MY TURN. This is the most powerful feeling in the world.

Today the world needs the Jillian’s and Bob’s. Today the world needs you! Never focus on the weight. Focus on the journey. You are where you are now because you have not grown enough to get you to where you NEED or WANT to be. Start growing, and make changes so you can be that IMPACT person. What you can’t see is that people need you. This WORLD needs you. When you realize that, well my friends, that is when the Journey really beings!

To the New Year and the NEW YOU!

Life Changing Weekend :)

My Amazing Weekend

There are times when you just know you have had a moment. It can be a moment of victory, love, passion, hope, or an ah-ha moment. These are moments that stay with you for life. What many people don’t realize is that these are moments that have been chosen for you. Good or bad they are to test your strengths and make sure you are paying attention to life. Well I had one of those moments last weekend.

I attended an event on relationship building and understanding your true purpose in life. What I came away was a profound effect on my mind and spirit. Many of you on this site know or have heard of a Beachbody Coach. You may have even been asked to be one or heard people talking about it. I am not going to talking about coaching but rather the avenue and grand picture that I have seen for myself that happens to come through coaching.

So many people don’t know what they want to do with their life. When I was younger I was always asked what you want to be when you grow up. I never had an answer. I would always go to career day and think man that stuff is just not for me. I couldn’t stand working behind a desk all day. I always knew I was supposed to do bigger and better things. This does not come from an egotistical standpoint, and I know I am no way better than anyone else. I just knew, deep down, I had a greater purpose then crunching numbers or making sales.

This weekend I learned that my purpose is to inspire hope. My purpose is to change a life. I have been given something far more valuable than money or material possessions. My gift is myself. I have the gift to give myself and why should I be quiet and stand by when people need to know what is out there.

P90X, Insanity, Beachbody you guys all see it. What I do is much more than that. What we do is much more than that. We build dreams. We inspire hope and positive change. We offer friendship and relationships. We are a bigger picture of tomorrow.

I don’t care if it is about Beachbody or the job you’re at now. If you feel like you are destined for great things make it point to search for your calling. The world needs more people like you.

I am here for you regardless of where you are in life. You are reading this not by accident but because maybe I have something for you. Maybe I can guide you in a different direction or maybe you can do the same with me.

Thank you for listening and may your life be full of happiness and hope.
