ok, i see that there was an example to the classic p90x for the +, but what would be the schedule for lean?

I have finished a round of p90x lean and have lost 40 pounds. Now I’m looking to still burn fat but gain some muscule mass.
I’VE ordered the P90X + dvds and a few of the one on ones. I’ve got uppper body, diamond delts, killer abs, and iso abs. I was wondering if anybody had any advice on how to work the one on ones into the p90x routine?

Shy,

I was not to thrilled with P90X+ The workouts are OK. You woul dbe better off picking up the Tony Horton One on One’s and susbstitutin gthe new workouts for some of the P90X workouts. Or, you could wait for P90Next. In the mean time, try spending a little time with Shaun T. Insanity is amazing, but brutal.

good review.

to be honest, even kenpo from p90x is not my favourite. i would rather do the bonus intervals they throw in, taken from the power 90 master series. i just found kenpo to be a yawn. and while i’m not an expert in martial art, i would rather find myself a good martial art club and get the proper training. and most likely, a better workout. it was fun the first couple of times – but that’s about it.

anyway, i am just into my third phase of p90x (first cycle through) and am looking to add more to my workout so i’ll probably get p90x plus.

personally, i don’t think i would enjoy the workout you linked. not that there’s anything wrong with it – it’s just that i’m the kind of person that needs variety and doing the upper body workout twice a week may be too stagnant for me.

i was thinking of re-doing the whole p90x (doubles – as i’m also doing cardio on the side) with what i would call a fourth phase using p90x plus for 3 weeks, followed by the usual recover week. and maybe even a fifth phase where i rotate week 1 of p90x, week 5 of p90x and then the p90x plus before another recovery week.

what do you think about that? too much? i would do maybe two weeks of recovery, though, before hitting phase 4 and 5.

i’m a big hardcore, too. i have to say, i’ve done a lot of different strength training programs (not easy ones either) but p90x has been the best so far. it’s the fastest way to get lean and mean.

I completed p 90x last year in June and I ended up gaining 10 pounds. I had been a weight lifter and work out person 5-7 days a weed to begin with. Since I became a type 1 diabetic, I have had so much trouble losing weight. I am now approaching 43, I am 5’8 and weigh 160. I retained a lot of water, and did bulk up, but I was looking for a different effect with losing some weight. Do you have any suggestions, for I am wanting to start the p90x+ but don’t want to gain any weight. I wear an insulin pump. I started out weighing 150-155 at most, and can’t lose that. The program itself is amazing, and I want to continue. Laurie

Though you come across as a total dipshit, you touch on a point close to my heart. As this year, 2010, you will see the 1st ever FitLifeSF Martial Work-Out Program. Keep watching the site for details!

Haha quit your bitching about the dumb bells. Just pick a different option so you don’t need to hear him talk about it. Queers. You people complain too much. I’m sure you guys couldn’t put together an effective work out program.

I think if anyone is complaining about the original Kenpo X isn’t looking at it for what it is. A beginer / intro to Kenpo cardio work out. It does get easier so I added 5 lbs/ ankle weight and 2.5 lbs wrist weight and watch the video on 1.4 speed to keep it going and the heart rate up. I will check out the Bas Rutten videos.

Oscar,

I really like the 1on1 series so far. Yes, they are shorter but they’re much more customizable and there’s enough of them (now) to be combined into a complete routine. I’m also ordering Insanity to add some (uh, insane) cardio 2x per week…basically because I’m not insane enough to take on a 60 day regiment of intense cardio.

I like my weights too much.
