The original P90X concept is based on the intent to ‘sow muscle confusion’. Having a schedule to work through might also make it a little easier to maintain a vigorous training routine which might require up to six days of daily training. The easy scheduling of weekly workout activities makes this possible. It has never been easy for mind and body to discipline itself for daily exercise.

The original P90X workout program remains one of the best ways to add form and structure to the exercise component of a busy lifestyle. Before working your way through P90X3, you need a brief introduction to this as well as P90X. P90X3 is not for the faint-hearted, not ideal for beginners. Interest piqued?

All of that said, it felt good to stretch out all of the muscles I worked this week. Finally, Tony Horton completes the workout with three long “Ohms.” As decent of a job as he does, it is very difficult to feel at peace or meditative with Tony leading the way. The class ends with some stretches, child’s pose, shavasana and fetal pose. It sort of takes away from the meditative experience you’d expect in a Yoga class. Further, Tony Horton somehow forgets he is leading a Yoga class and goes back to his traditional format of yelling at people and talking incessantly to push them harder. I feel that a lot of them focused on the lower section of the abdominal muscles and neglected the upper abdominals and obliques. The Yoga Belly 7: I was not a big fan of these exercises.

One-Legged Hamstring Stretch into Two-Legged Hamstring Stretch.

Plough into Shoulder Stand with Leg Variations into Plough.

This is definitely one of the most challenging yoga poses in this workout, especially if you haven’t done it before.

Crane (Pre-Handstand) – Note: I feel like this is also called Crow, but I’m not sure.

But, for sure, this was the easiest part of the class. Maybe it is because it feels less difficult when you are lying on the floor. Each was done for 30 seconds on each side of the body.įloor Work: Floor work is usually my favorite among yoga poses. So, I felt this was a bit on the short side.

Prayer twist from Runner’s Pose to Side Arm Balance.

Right-Angle Pose to Extended Right-Angle Pose & Grab – Note: FYI the Right-Angle Pose & Grab was especially challenging for those who are not that flexible).

It lasted for over 45 minutes…meaning more than half the class. I’m going to be really honest here, I am not a huge fan of Asanas and so, I felt this portion of the P90X workout was extremely long (12 poses on each side of the body to be exact). Moving Asanas: Each Asana starts with your standard Chaturanga, Upward Dog and Downward Dog. For those of you who are familiar with the practice, here is a list of the yoga poses, and some commentary: After a brief warm-up, Tony Horton launched into the bulk of the class, made up of Moving Asanas, Balance Postures, Floor Work and something Tony Horton likes to refer to as The Yoga Belly 7. Although many classes you’d take at a studio can be up to 90 minutes, this workout felt a little long. The P90X Yoga program is 90 minutes long and is built around Hatha Yoga.

However, if you aren’t very flexible, you’ll probably need to work up to some of the yoga poses that Tony Horton takes you through. Anyway, the P90X yoga poses were very familiar to me and most are easy enough for beginners. My husband and I joke that taking classes is sort of like physical therapy that we HAVE to do to prevent injuries and maintain decent flexibility.

My husband and I have been taking Yoga classes over the last six months. Some background: I’m not a huge Yoga person. This is an important class to the P90X workout: It gives your body a bit of a reprieve from the intensity of most of the P90X program and stretches out the muscles you’ve been working so hard. Further, he provides some decent tips on proper alignment and modifications for the yoga poses. The class focused on many of the more common yoga poses that one would do in a traditional class and Tony Horton does a decent job of dialing down his crazy energy and talking.
