But here’s a caveat: P90X is not just another fat-burning trend that promises amazing results within a week. In fact, it is a tough program that will force you to give up 3 months of your couch potato life. It’s not for everyone and that’s a fact. Yes, you need 3 months including 6 days a week of intense P90X workout routines.

My P90X Results - The P90X workout routine will do the job

It might be too intimidating at first but if you stay focused to your goals, and take it day by day till the last day, you could very well have your own transformation story as I have.

I’m sure you’ve heard about impressive P90X stories, watched P90X infomercials, and have been thinking about trying it yourself. You’ve heard your friends have tried it but not really actually did the program as the program suggests front to back, and you may have even gotten a burned copy from the pathetic piracy prince and it was incomplete here and there so it was frustrating when you were in the middle of a great workout and then it skips 15 minutes of the program somewhere along the line.

So you got tired if it and quit. It happens and I know because me and my friends have been through this too before I actually decided to do it right and commit. The P90X workout routine only works when done right once again. That means following the fitness and nutrition guide both for the full 90 days, along with staying accountable with your Beachbody coach and all the resources they have to offer to you for free during your journey.

(Check out this quick video. Our team is shown in the sky blue shirts from .07 seconds to .12 seconds in the video. There was about 100 of us there working out with Tony Horton, Shaun T, Les Mills Pump Trainers, and more. Location was the Las Vegas Strip (Tropicana) at 6a.m. in the morning. Yes our team knows how to Bring It!)

But what really makes P90X workout routine a cut above the rest? Actually doing it and not just watching it or parking it on your book shelf like I did at first, is a good start.

See My Transformation Video To The Right ===========>>>>>>

Let’s forget all the hype for now and explore if the P90X workout routine has the right edge you’ve been looking for. Keep in mind, that if you’ve been someone who hasn’t been working out in a long time, you may need to dip into the Power 90 before you jump into the Extreme version of P90X, which was created for Power 90 graduates. Yes, the P90X workout routine wasn’t the first of it’s line, but certainly the most popular to date. Here’s why….

P90X Workout Routine: Isolation vs. Full-Body

When I first tried the P90X workout routine to meet my fitness goals, I was pleasantly surprised for two reasons: First, P90X is challenging enough to put my boredom away. Second, it’s a complete body conditioning program that helps to unleash your personal best.

When I say ‘complete’, that simply means P90X can put one’s strength, stamina, endurance and flexibility to test. This has been made possible by isolation and full body exercises. Majority of the 12 P90X workouts are tailored to build specific muscle groups. AB Ripper X, for example, can help you get that six-pack abs in no time. Other target-specific moves are also known to bulk up other parts of the body like the chest, legs, shoulders and back.

Full-body workouts, on the other hand, can drive you nuts especially if yoga is not your cup of tea. I personally dislike yoga but P90X has helped me focus on the larger picture. Without full-body P90X workout routines like Plyometrics, Yoga X and Kenpo X, I would not be able to boost my strength and flexibility at the same time.

When I first started P90X, I was so frustrated with how I couldn’t even get close to doing Yoga like they did on the DVD. You can bet that I was calling Tony Horton ugly names. Come to find out, that was just the competitive side in me being tamed. Realizing my learning curve and how much room I had to improve. That’s why the P90X workout routine was designed that way, to challenge you for 90 days constantly.

P90X Workout Routine: Cardio vs. Strength

Although not as intense as Insanity, cardio lovers can definitely count on P90X for a round of heart-friendly workouts. If you’re on kickboxing, Kenpo X can definitely meet your needs. At first, Kenpo X proved to be my easiest workout, so I upped the intensity by holding onto 2.5 lb weights during the workout for more intensity and resistance. It definitely made a world of difference for me.

Plyometrics, on the other hand, is more jump training for agility and vertical strength and power, while Core Synergistics effectively combines push ups, lying core and leg exercises so you can meet your target heart rate every time. Now, if your focus is more on gaining core strength, each P90X workout routine won’t disappoint you. Simple moves like push ups and pull-ups can really go a long way in boosting your upper body strength with the use of low-cost equipment like resistance bands. Increasing one’s lower body strength is also possible, thanks to simple at-home exercise moves like squatting and sit-ups.

P90X Workout Routine: Get the Best Results!

If you work hard enough, P90X can help you achieve jaw-dropping transformations. But that won’t be possible for people who are after get-fit-quick ideas and too lazy to stretch out.

I know people that had to go through p90x for 18 months straight, but in the end, lost 242 lbs. Here is his story

 

Was it worth 18 months of P90X? You better believe it. I had the honor to see Richard Neil in Las Vegas this year and all I can say is that you can absolutely see in his eyes that he is thankful for his new life. Congrats again, Richard! You have definitely earned it.

So let’s get back to you……P90X workout routine is not just about exercises per se. As a matter of fact, you can have your battle halfway done if you follow both the fitness and diet plans by heart. In other words, P90X workout routine is not the be-all, end-all of P90X success. This is just an overview of P90X workout routine so please bear in mind that in order to achieve optimum results, you must not cherry pick workouts you only feel comfortable with.

Adhere to every P90X workout routine and you’ll surely give yourself the best chance of getting the body you desire.

By just looking in Shakeology nutrition facts alone, one can safely assume that this product is not just any ordinary meal replacement- – -It is the real deal! But in the end, who believes the hype these days? You need to know for yourself in order to actually believe it, right?

I’ve been using Shakeology for some years now and even made some recipes out of my all-time favorite Chocolate Shakeology.
Judging by its taste, Shakeology really rocks. But once you delve deeper into the Shakeology nutrition facts, you will finally realize that Shakeology is one fine choice as far as health benefits are concerned.

What is a bag of Shakeology really worth? Does it stay true with its promise or is it all for the hype?

Shakeology Nutrition Facts: Nature Rules!

As we all know, the main reason why Shakeology rules the super food category is the fact that it is made from whole foods. In other words, nothing man-made has been added into it so consumers will be assured of a safe, all-natural and healthy drink with each serving.

But that is just the tip of the iceberg. Would you believe that in order to bring Shakeology into a reality, Darin Olien and his team has traveled around the globe to find 70 of the best natural ingredients widely known for their life-saving components?
Well, that’s the truth and believe it or not, Shakeology is the only fitness product in the market that combines super foods like goji berry and kava-kava into a single drink.

Shakeology Nutrition Facts: Health Food at Its Best

A single glass of Shakeology, regardless of flavor, is brimming with health & goodness. You can curb your appetite, lower cholesterol, achieve normal digestion and lose weight by relying on Shakeology as either a protein shake or meal replacement.
The above health benefits have helped thousands of people both inside and outside of Beachbody programs, thanks to the Shakeology nutrition facts also being a reality and changing people‘s lives.

If you look into the Shakeology nutrition facts a little closer, you will discover that every pack contains 140 calories, 14 grams of carbohydrates, 17 grams of protein and 1 gram of fats. The protein for both Chocolate and Greenberry flavours is classified as whey protein while brown sprouted rice protein constitutes that of both the tropical strawberry vegan and the chocolate vegan shakes.

Shakeology Nutrition Facts: Highly Recommended by Foodfacts

Shakeology nutrition facts have achieved global fame not because of false advertisements but because of their efficacy backed up by scientific research. A case in point is the recent data released by Foodfacts.com which shows that Shakeology holds a rating of 97% positive.

The same study has revealed that Shakeology contains no less than 23 different vitamins and nutrients, enough to make any multivitamin products fold in shame. Shakeology nutrition facts also show that the product is naturally safe and free from both caffeine and gluten.

Remember that Beachbody stands behind all their products with a 100% money back guarantee no matter how much you’ve consumed from the bag. That’s how confident they are that you will reap the benefits from what they have put together to transform your health.

Tough Mudder SoCal Conquered!

[box type=”note”]I appreciate you stopping by and sharing the day here at GetFitToLive.com. I know you are busy, but take a moment and sign up for a FREE BEACHBODY MEMBERSHIP for support on demand, motivation like no other, and a social fitness community to keep you on track to your fitness goals![/box]
So I just got back from Tough Mudder SoCal and I must say, WOW! It is by far the toughest event that I have ever done in my life. Located in beautiful Big Bear California, it was one to remember.

I raced this weekend with my brother’s Arnel and Fermin, my sister in law, Jasmine, and other awesome people from California and Washington. We had a great group and we really were a team from the beginning. Something you need to make it through Tough Mudder SoCal.

Now my brother’s helped me prepare for this race by giving me a checklist on what to wear, supplements and foods to carry with, and mentality tips. We also trained up mountains in the Las Vegas area beforehand to get used to climbing hills. We went in the race at Big Bear and were smacked in the face by how many hills back to back that were structured into the 10+ mile event.

Tough Mudder SoCal
Tough Mudder SoCal- Arctic Enema - A pool of freezing "Ice Cold" water

There were 21 obstacles and about 15+ mountains and steep hills that were required to pass before becoming an official Tough Mudder in SoCal. In addition to that, they had obstacles in between the mountain climbs such as the Arctic Enema, a pool of water packed with ice till the water basically freezes. When I jumped in, all my mind was saying is, “I need to hurry!” Your body goes into a quick shock and you need to react before your body becomes hypothermic. No Joke!

Another cool obstacle was “Walk The Plank”. A 15 foot plank where you jump into cold temperature deep waters. You better know what your doing and you better know how to swim. I was at a stage where I started to cramp so I was worried about cramping when I landed in the cold waters.

Fortunately one of my strengths are swimming, and if I started to cramp up in my legs, I would have enough skill to swim with solely upper body strategies. If you don’t know how to swim, then you must have a partner on your team that can jump in first then spot you to shore when you jump in.

For a review of all tough mudder obstacles, click Tough Mudder Obstacles

Tough Mudder SoCal – What I learned

Because I had my brother’s who have already done such races as Tough Mudder, Super Spartan, Spartan Military Sprint, Warrior Dash, I had a lot of help as I said earlier on preparing my meals and amenities. So I bought all my necessary gear and trained. Come to find out that I trained a little too thin for this event.

The reason is, is that Tough Mudder’s are the same but different. Let me explain. A TM in Tampa Florida is much easier in my

Tough Mudder SoCal
Tough Mudder Socal - Climbing Snow Summit at an elevation of almost 9,000 feet

brother’s opinion than the Tough Mudder SoCal in Big Bear. This is because of the difference in elevation and the mountains required to finish. Florida just doesn’t have the hills to compete with the difficulty of Big Bear California. So you may have to take more time to finish the Tough Mudder in Big Bear versus in Tampa due to the mountain climbing involved.

So when I did TM this weekend in SoCal, I realized that this was an event of strategy, not only endurance, or running, or how much weight you can lift in the gym. This is about strategy on how to help your fellow team mate over a 12 ft wall, or lifting them up from Mount Everest, another TM obstacle.

It’s about finding the best side of the mountain trail that best gives you the advantage on your footing to make it up the climb. It’s about fighting through injuries and cramping if it unfortunately happens during the race. How about helping someone down a long steep hill when you are struggling yourself. Are you a warrior, a savior, and angel for someone, or are you just an average Joe that will help no one to get ahead? When fatigue and doubt sets in, are you gonna keep going and prove your mental toughness? Or are you going to break down and blow your chance to achieve such a huge physical feat in your life by helping others achieve theirs?

When we raced this weekend, we let our whole team know that we are here for each other. No one was going to cross that finish line unless we had everyone we started with also finishing with us. It was my responsibility as a team mate to make sure my partner, Jackie  was replenished, pacing herself, giving it all she got, and leaving nothing out on the course when it’s all said and done. I’ll admit that some on our team thought about bailing out. All that means is that this was exactly what they needed to take that step in life to define what they really can do. It also shows them what their maximum capacities are capable of when their bodies tell them to quit. Just because your body shuts down, it doesn’t mean you do.

You have the ability to refresh mentally and physically and keep going. Preparation is key in helping that all happen.

Tough Mudder SoCal – Finding The Beast In Me To Finish

Tough Mudder SoCal
Tough Mudder SoCal - Walk The Plank

Even though I carbed up the night before the race, ate a plain bagel and some grapes in the morning about 2 hours before, I unfortunately started to cramp up in my legs about 3 miles in. Yes, it sucks!  All I was thinking was that I had at least 7 more miles of mud, electric shock, long high mountains, and more. Could I physically complete this with stiff legs and waving muscles on my calves. It was terrible! I knew one thing, I wasn’t going to throw in the towel. I had to learn how to manage my cramps and compete through it. It hurt physically, but mentally, I had already made the choice that I was going to complete the race and there was nothing that was going to change about that. Obviously, I ended up fighting through it, and I earned my orange Tough Mudder head band.

Cramping can really be a huge problem, especially if you let it get in the way of your mind. If it happens to you, I would recommend that you just accept that it happened, and learn how to deal with it in a way that you stay focused and strong. Keep going cause the cramps will come and go occasionally and you just have to find ways to do things with the cramps in full effect. The way I kept going was that knew I couldn’t fully straighten my legs to prevent my legs from locking up so I had to walk in squat formation with my legs wide. Kind of like I had something stuck up my butt, literally. It looks ugly, but I didn’t care, I just wanted to keep going and walk out the stiffness. Once the temporary cramps left, I was in full competitive mode until it happened again. So yeah, you can find ways to complete a Tough Mudder when cramping happens. Just choose to finish and finish.

Training For Tough Mudder
After completing Tough Mudder SoCal and talking to my brother who has done many TM’s, I really think that each tough mudder is different. If you are entering a tough mudder in Florida, you can probably train different than doing a TM involving mountains like in Big Bear. Learn how to fuel yourself. Start training 3 months in advance and try different eating plans to find what works best for your energy and endurance. Try going through programs like Insanity or Insanity Asylum. It will increase your muscle stamina and leg power which is crucial. Insanity programs were designed by pro athletes for optimal performance in sports. You get good at these programs, you will be well prepared for any endurance race today.

Tough Mudder SoCal – Final Thoughts

I really enjoyed the whole Tough Mudder SoCal event in general. From the organization to the costumes, to the display of teamwork, to the comradery. Once you race one, I think you’ll be hooked. I certainly am because I am already planning 2 more this year in Las Vegas in October and NoCal in September. Anyone wanna race with me and my team?

Today I’m embarking on a trip to Big Bear California to race with my team at Tough Mudder. It’s a 10-12 mile mud obstacle course that will test your physical and mental toughness as well as teamwork ability. This is going to be my first one, but fortunately, my brother’s are veterans and gave me a lot of good tips to get fully prepared for this weekend. I wanted to share with you what I did to prepare.

Training for Tough Mudder

First off, I knew that running was my weakness so I started running a few miles about 3 times per week about 6 weeks ago. I live in a mountain master community so the streets are inclined and it helps to get that extra power training to run in different levels.

I also went mountain trail running on steep hills to test my leg strength endurance. In addition to that, I also did sprints up slippery sandy terrain and treaded safely but steadily down as well.

sportlegs supplement
Get through the burn with SportLegs - For Endurance Athletes

The most important training I did in my opinion was Insanity and Insanity Asylum. These programs get your cardio to tip top shape and also improves your leg strength endurance. To help with my leg endurance, I chose to get SportLegs, a supplement to help with the lactic acid build up that forces many people to tire and slow down when fatigue. This can really slow you down in any workout and especially for a long endurance race, I want to be well prepared.

What to Wear For Tough Mudder

I want to be as comfortable as possible as weird as that may sound. You won’t be as comfortable as sleeping in your bed after a long day, but what I mean is as comfortable with the circumstances that I will be faced with. Muddy waters, electric shock wires, barb wires, wall climbing, Ice pools, and more.

So my brother’s recommended me the following to wear:

1. Dry fit socks
2. Compression under pants(shorts)
3. Dry fit Nike running shorts
4. Compression undershirt
5. Dry fit shirt, fitted if possible
6. Cross country or breathable trail running shoes

So after that recommended list, I got it all ready and I’m set with my attire. In addition to this, I also will be wearing a CamelBak for hydration and other items that will help me with sustaining energy throughout the race.

Supplements recommended for Tough Mudder

You want to have as much energy for as long as possible without jeopardizing your health. So we chose to get Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem and gel packs.

perpetuem
Extreme Endurance Fuel

Perpetuem – for delivering stable, long term energy hour after hour with no stomach distress. This is formulated for use with training that lasts 2 hours or more. It’s easy to digest. This extreme endurance fuel is made with all natural ingredients. Simply mix the powder in X amount of water depending upon your body weight times how many hours of training. So this is what I will have in my 2 liter water compartment in my CamelBak.

Hammer Gel
Rapid Energy Fuel

Hammer Gel– This is a gel that you take every 2-3 hours as needed. I got the single serving gel pack that you can just squeeze into your mouth at a water station.

So with these two, together with my SportLegs and my hard training, I am expecting to be ready for this challenge tomorrow. I will definitely get a video out to my loyal readers and let you know how it went.

Body Beast, an in home workout program that mixes old school bodybuilding with modern scientific study, is now available for those who want to pack on 10 lbs of muscle in 90 days. This is the first program exclusively by Beachbody that is designed to get you bulky and gain massive muscle vs that lean mean P90X traditional Beachbody look.

Who Is Body Beast’s Sagi Kalev

Body Beast is created by Sagi Kalev. A former Israeli army veteran who was also involved in participating in Desert Storm, currently resides in Dallas Texas and is a Master Professional personal trainer and Certified Nutrition Specialist CNS* in his own co-owned gym in Dallas Texas. He is a former bodybuilding title holder and has appeared in popular magazines such as Iron Man, Muscle and Fitness(4 times), and 27 times in the Health and Fitness Magazine.

His lastest ventures in addition to creating Body Beast is modeling and acting which has given him more publicity as he had made appeareances on shows like “Baywatch” and “The Young And The Restless”

Body Beast Sagi Kalev
I met Body Beast creator, Sagi Kalev in Las Vegas. This guy is cool and really has a passion for his profession.

I had the opportunity to meet him in Las Vegas where I live and chat with him. He is a very calm type of person and is very into what he does. I would recommend his program to anyone with a goal to put on some muscle mass and gain weight or gain muscle with shedding fat to get that lean look. In this Body Beast workout, he really knows how to push you and keep you going. His style is different from that of Tony Horton form P90X, but seems to be entertaining, passionate, and just right for the Body Beast and those wanting to get strong and big.

What Does Body Beast Consist Of?

Body Beast is a 90 day Dynamic Set Training™ style program that will get your muscles to the fatigue stage of begging for mercy. You will be introduced to Single Sets, Super Sets, Drop Sets, Giant Sets, Progressive Sets, Tempo Sets, and more. By going through this process, it will result in huge gains.

See a preview here:

Body Beast comes with “2 training schedules” to cater to your fitness goals. If your only goal is to get huge, then you will want to follow the Huge Beast Schedule. If you want to lose fat, you will follow the Lean Beast Schedule which will have more cardio workouts to shed the unhealthy fat covering up your muscles.

Both schedules are tough. Just because the Lean schedule may sound more towards the easier side, it will get you working for your results just as much as the Huge Beast schedule together with the Book of Beast that will guide you through a specific 3 phase eating plan. In order to get the results that this program promises, you must follow not only the fitness guide, but the nutrition guide as well.

Body Beast is a pro level program and says that it will pack you on 10 lbs of muscle in 90 days. There are 12 different workouts all packed onto 7 DVDs for your easy to store enjoyment. The workouts included are:

Build: Chest/Tris:
This workout is laser targeted to the chest and triceps, To develop strength & definition, a combination of Super, Giant, and Single Sets go a long way in this one.
(49 minutes)

Build: SHOULDERS:
You want diamond deltoids? You’re gonna love this one.
(38 minutes)

Beast: Abs:
Ab work is key and I don’t mean just for looks on the front cover of Men’s Fitness. This will not only help you lift heavier weight safely, but also helps you in improving your posture, something that speaks a lot about you. (11 minutes)

Build: LEGS:
Say goodbye to chicken legs. This workout focuses on creating powerful quads, hamstrings, calves, and glutes. (38 minutes)

Build: BACK/BIS:
You want the “V” shape—I’m talking bigger lats, trapezoids, rhomboids, and biceps. You better be ready to pull and curl.
(50 minutes)

Bulk: Chest:
Uses Super Sets, Force Sets, Progressive Sets, Combo Sets, and Multi-Sets with an increase in resistance to help bulk your pecs. Some muscle confusion using different angles and moves hit various fibers of the fan-shaped muscle. The addition of Progressive Sets really targets muscular hypertrophy.
(30 minutes)

Bulk: Back:
Uses Super Sets and Force Sets that increases in resistance to create a massive back. The addition of Force Sets creates a focus on hypertrophy. (29 minutes)

Bulk: Legs:
Progressive Sets, Force Sets, and Super Sets to help you transform chicken legs into tree trunks.
(40 minutes)

Bulk: SHOULDERS:
Super Sets and Progressive Sets that target more on the posterior deltoids (or back of the shoulder), creating an even more 3-D appearance. Added weight and lower reps help pronounce the hypertrophy effect. This is one I am going to enjoy.
(35 minutes)

Bulk: ARMS:
Focused training with Progressive Sets, Force Sets, and Super Sets to create huge biceps and triceps.
(36 minutes)

Beast: Abs:
Ab work is here for more than looks. A strong core helps you lift heavier weight safely and helps you improve your posture. (11 minutes)

Beast: Cardio:
You didn’t see this workout in Pumping Iron. A highly new-school performance-oriented cardio workout to not only help cut you up, but to increase your ability to get bigger. (30 minutes)

Beast: Total Body:
A circuit routine for your entire body. Good to have when reality sets in and you need to (*gulp*) miss a workout day or two.
(39 minutes)

In addition to all the workouts, Body Beast also has up to 4 supplements available to compliment the workouts and give you maximum results. You can get all the workouts and the supplements in one bundle package, or you can just get the workout itself assuming you have everything else and use your own supplements.

Buy Body Beast
Click Picture To Order The Body Beast Challenge Pack – It is the Beast Stack without the Tempo DVD. Best Value Package in my opinion

With the Challenge Pack, you get the “Beast Stack” minus the Tempo(see below).

Beachbody also gives you the Lucky 7 DVD free ($19.95 Value) when you purchase any of the packages above. It’s a full-body workout including seven exercises and seven pyramids for bigger gains.

When you purchase either the Huge Stack or Beast Stack Body Beast programs, you will also get:
Tempo – A first-hand understanding of growth-enhancing hypertrophy with two intense workouts. Tempo Sets work your chest, tris, back, and bis so hard, you can actually feel your muscle tissue grow.

Required Equipment For Body Beast Success

So you probably want to know what equipment is needed for the Body Beast workout. I searched around for this information and there seems to be very minimal information about this question as a consumer interested in buying this program. So, after a little research, I found it on the Beachbody website Body Beast announcement section. I was afraid that you would have to go out and purchase a full gym for your house but that is not necessarily true. It is however, recommended to have a full dumbbell set to pure enjoyment of this Body Beast program, but you can do with minimal equipment as well if you are on a tight budget.

As I have recommended before, if you want to go the dumbbell way, then you can get the Bowflex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells (Pair). This will save you tons of money in buying a while dumbbell collection of weights you will barely use.

More recommended equipment links:

EZ Curl Bar and Weights ($129.95)
PowerBlock Adjustable Workout Bench ($199.95)
Lucky 7 DVD ($19.95)
Body Beast Tempo Workouts DVD ($19.95)
EZ Curl Barbell with Spring Collars($54.95)
Extra Weights ($variable)
Spring Collars ($12.95)

Let’s be honest guys. Before you go out and buy the weights and stuff from the links I provided, go out and see if you can get some cheap weights locally or from Craigslist so you don’t have to pay shipping and stuff like that. You don’t want to break yourself to get in shape. Of course, I didn’t have to tell you that.

In the end, this workout will get you the results you desire because it’s all been tested and proven to work already. With beachbody putting their 400 million dollar name behind the product and investing their hard earned money in research, test, and developments, you know you are getting a pro level program. If you truly follow the routine and nutrition guide, you will give yourself the opportunity to pack on 10 lbs of healthy muscle mass with the Body Beast Workout within the next 90 days.
