Summer Fitness and Infomercial Mania

So everyone wants to get in shape and look good for the summer, I am athletic but can always lose a few pounds and tone up.

We haven’t had cable living overseas and thus no infomercials trying to sell the latest gadgets and programs. Late one night I got sucked into this P-90X commercial and decided to give it a try.

Now understand for my job I run three times a week and do upper body and ab workouts frequently so I was skeptical on buying anything especially from an infomercial…but I have been pleasantly surprised at this program.

P90X incorporates muscle group workouts, abs, cardio, stretching, yoga, plyometrics and kenpo.

I lift weights and run but some of these areas were new to me and were very challenging (yoga and plyometrics)

So far I am impressed and I’m well on my way to looking good for the summer.

Combine this with a good diet like Men’s Health Ab’s Diet, which actually allows you to eat more frequently and not starve yourself, and you have a great workout program.

So far my vote is a thumbs up for P90X.
