P90X Archives

Tony Horton & Jeff OchoaIf you have ever wanted to work out live with Tony Horton (the creator of P90X), one of the best and easiest ways to do it is to become a Beachbody coach and earn your way there.  This is exactly what I did.  We spent five days at the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas courtesy of Beachbody.  I helped enough people start to change their live and in the process earned a trip to the Bahamas. Not too shabby considering that this is more fun than it is work. The work out was definitely surreal. We were on the beach in the Bahamas, palm trees in the background and yachts cruising by while working out with Tony Horton. Totally awesome.  You could also have worked out with Shaun T right before Tony but we were up a little late to make it to Shaun’s work out. Tony Horton, Shaun T and Leandro Carvahlo all led work outs on 2 days so you could choose which ones you wanted to attend or attend all of them if you wanted to. Right after each work out Shakeology was served for every one and they had all the flavors, Chocolate, Tropical Strawberry and Greenberry.

We also seen Tony Horton at the pool and walking around the resort and let me just say this, he is a really nice guy and tries to accommodate everyone.  Always polite, always send hi and if he had time, always took a picture. This is the second time I have met him and both times were a pleasure. It makes me proud to promote his work outs to people to help them change their lives.

This trip was pretty intimate.  You could rub elbows with the corporate people of Beachbody, the celebrity trainers such as Tony Horton, Shaun T and Leandro Carvahlo and of course other coaches who have earned their way to the Bahamas too.  There was a welcome dinner the first night and then nights after that as well. There were panels, trainings, social media training, trainer panels and more. The only thing I didn’t like about the trip was leaving!!!

Right about now you might be wondering if this “Beachbody coach” thing is something you can do? My answer to almost everyone I speak with is an emphatic YES. This business is probably not what you think and offers more than you know right now. It’s not about selling stuff it’s about helping some people change their lives and then they help some others change their lives. This is how we are going to end the trend of obesity. One person at a time. Do you like fitness?  Do you know some people who could use some fitness in their lives? Could you use some extra money? Do you know anyone that could use some extra money? If you answered yes to all of these questions then you and I should be talking. Just click on the contact us tab above for my number and give me a ring.  Just by helping people I was able to turn this into a full time income and I am sure you can do the same. The ball is in your court now so what you do right now could alter the rest of your life. At least get the information from me. It doesn’t cost anything to get informed. :-)

Below are a couple clips from our morning work out with Tony Horton.

 

And here is some more fun we had on this amazing trip.  Thanks Beachbody!!

and a little fun with the sharks.  Just think, we hopped in this water shortly after this and went snorkeling.

 

Is P90X the Best Work Out Program?

Is P90X the best work out?Is P90X the best work out program? Inquiring minds want to know. Let me start by saying this, the word “BEST” is relative. What you think is the best work I might hate and what I think is the best work out program you only might want to do once in a while. Personally, for me, the P90X exercise program is definitely the best  work out program. Now don’t get me wrong. I have also done Shaun T’s Insanity, Asylum, P90X2, some RevAbs, P90X One on One work outs and my favorite was P90X. Actually, having done multiple work outs has really allowed me to create a hybrid which is the best work out for me.  Now I mix P90X2, P90X, Asylum, Insanity and some running all together for my own little hybrid. Mixing it up will keep your work outs exciting. The key is to make your work outs a habit and do something that you will be able to continue for the rest of your life. Will I ever do any other work outs? Of course I will.  Beachbody keeps coming out with new work outs that keep getting more and more challenging and for me that is the name of the game. Keep myself challenged.  I’ll do a program for the full 90 days even if I am not crazy about it because I am sure there is something that I can learn from it and something I will be be able to incorporate into what I do every day. When I did Insanity I went through and did the entire 60 says and I enjoyed those work outs but extreme cardio is not something I want to do every day.  I need my weights so incorporated some Insanity work outs into my regiment and replaced a few P90X work outs with Insanity work outs. When Asylum was released, I went through and did the full 30 days of that program. Then I mixed in some of those Asylum work outs with my P90X regiment. I go back and forth but the key is I have options. I have made this a habit and I feel great every day because of it.

I guess the real question should be…. is P90X the best work out program for you? Of course I know you will get results but you might like a cardio based work out better and then Insanity might fit you better.  Maybe you are just getting started and you want something a little milder like Slim in 6. Maybe you are looking to really enhance your sports performance then I would have to lean towards P90X2. Looking for low impact then you might want Tai Cheng.  We have such a broad range of work outs that there is something for everyone and guess what?  If you want to do another one after you finish your first program then you have that option too. Make it a habit and keep it fresh.

Are you ready to get started and take our Beachbody Challenge?

P90X Price

P90X PriceP90X price. How much is P90X, what will P90X cost me, Is P90X too expensive, what is theP90X price???   Yadda, yadda, yadda.  To be quite honest I really wish people would concentrate on the P90X price and compare it to all of the options out there.  That would definitely help others see what a true bargain they are getting.  When you buy P90X you are getting 12 different work outs, a P90X nutrition guide and a P90X work out guide. You will know what work outs to do on what day and you will know exactly what to eat based on the P90X nutrition guide.  You will get support and by logging your work outs daily you will have a chance to win $500 every day just for doing so.  What does all this mean?  Well, for starters it means the P90X price of $119.85 is peanuts compared to joining a gym, hiring a trainer, hiring a nutritionist etc. One week with a personal trainer is about the same price of P90x and you can do P90X for life.  Personally, I think P90x is a steal and I have been doing it for over 3 years now.  I do mix it up with Insanity, Asylum and with some P90X One on Ones but the core of what I do is P90X. I have even mixed in some P90X2 as well to keep everything fresh. These P90X work outs have now become a habit for me and knowing what I know now I would have gladly paid double the price for P90X.

Here is my challenge to you.  If you are thinking about doing P90X make the commitment now, place your order and do the program for the next 90 days.  If you are not happy with your results then send it back and get your money back.  You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. P90x has changed my life and I am sure it will change yours too. So the P90X price of $119.85, well, let’s just say it’s the bargain of the century.  Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you order from my site here you will also get 2 FREE P90X One on One work out as well which is about a $40.00 value.

P90X MindsetWhat is the Most Important Piece of Equipment you Need for P90X?  I have done a post before titled “What equipment do need to do P90X?’ but I don’t think I really covered what the most important piece of equipment is that you will need. MINDSET! That’s right, the most important piece of equipment you will need costs nothing and all you might have to do is tune it in. I have seen so many people buy treadmills, shake weights, gym memberships, gadgets, work out programs and for some reason they never get anywhere. Why? Mindset.  I really don’t think people understand what it really takes to change. I can tell you one thing, it definitely takes more than a week.  So many people go into a new work out regiment with the “I’ll give this a try” attitude and think they are going to succeed.  My first round of P90X I made up my mind before I even received the work outs that nothing was going to get in the way of the hour I needed to put in each day for the next 90 days. Guess what? I did not miss one work out.  Now I understand life happens and things will come up but that is not an excuse to quit.  If you miss a work out, so what. Just don’t make a habit of it. If you miss 2 or more P90X work outs repeat that week.  This simple formula will take you a long way.

Most people think it is the pull up bar, push-up stands or the dumbbells that are the most important piece of equipment when starting P90X but I always ask how many times have you been to someones house and seen their tread mill used as a clothes hanger?  Work outs that have not even been opened and just collecting dust.? Gym memberships that haven’t been used in months? I see it all the time.  Before you decide on a program you need to get in the right frame of mind.  Decide you really want this.  Make your commitment and you will succeed.  You might not be able to do any pull ups when you start, you might only be able to do 2 push ups when you start, you might not be able to finish Ab Ripper or P90X Plyometrics but just show up every day and you will amaze yourself with the results you will see over the next 90 days.

P90X Fitness Test

p90x fitness testP90X fitness test.  So I am guessing you are either getting ready to start P90X or are about to buy P90X and you are wondering about the P90X fitness test and if you meet the minimum requirement to start the P90X workouts.  Well, you have come to the right place.  You will find a ton of information on this site about P90X and hopefully you will get all of your questions answered.  One of the biggest misconceptions about P90X is that yo have to be in tip-top shape before you begin P90X, well I am here to tell you that is not true.  You should have a fitness base before you begin but P90X is designed to get you into great shape. The reason P90X works so well is you can modify all of the movements.  let me give you an example, pull-ups, they are tough and a lot of people can’t even do 1 pull-up. Does that mean that you can’t do P90X? Of course not. You just have to modify.  Basically you would do pull-ups with 1 foot on a chair, use the pull-up assist or use bands ti simulate pull-ups.  By the end of the program you will be surprised at how strong you get and how much you improve.

The P90X fitness test is going to be used to establish a base of where you are starting but will also make sure that you can meet some basic skills and some minimum requirements and then you will also be able to track your improvements.  We will get to the P90X fitness test in a second but right now I want you to go and create a free Team Beachbody account and this way you will have me to help you along the way if you ever have any questions, be able to track your progress, enter our drawing to win $500 every day just for logging in your P90X workout and you will also be able to enter in your before statistics to track your progress.

Remember, it is not important where you start, where you finish is what counts and the fact that you are here right now reading this tells me that you are ready to finish and finish well.
