This is a total body workout, which includes cardio, stretching and resistance to strengthen your core muscles.  By strengthening your core, you will be more prepared to take on all the other workout routines.  You will also with core synergistics improve your flexibility, balance and coordination like Yoga X.  If you start with the classic P90x program then you will do core synergistic on week 4, week 8, and week 13.  In these weeks you will do this exercise twice in that week so plenty of time to get used to the exercises.  If you do the lean program then it’s incorporated in more weeks than the classic because the lean is more of a cardio program then strength builder.  Tony doesn’t really want you to focus on numbers here but more on engaging your core and your form.

Items needed to do Core Synergistic are a mat, weights or bands, and some sort of plate or cardboard.  I really never used a plate or cardboard and still got results so no worries.  The workout is approximately 55 minutes and consists of 19 moves and 3 bonus moves.  I will not explain every exercise as that would bore

What a great workout!  When I started doing P90X all I wanted was to get rid off the extra love from my lower back and let me tell you this is the workout.  Back and Biceps for P90X is all about curling and pull ups.  You will need a chair, pull up bar, wall, towel and weights.  The workout is approximately 59 minutes with just under 7 minutes of stretching and 2 minutes of warming up.  Total workout time of 51 minutes, so after you add a few 30 second breaks in there the P90X workout is just under a 50 minute workout.

So the workout entails lots of pull ups and curls within a 50 minute workout so make sure your chair is handy.  When I started P90X I couldn’t even do one and the majority that are thinking of starting P90X will not be able to do one either.  Sometimes I wish I would have started RevAbs first to break myself in but my results were awesome so no complaints.  By the time you start Back & Biceps you will be in week 5 so you should be used to the motion of it.  With
