The P90X Lean Workout Program
P90X Lean is an alternative workout schedule of P90X for people who want more cardio and a less intense workout. Don’t get me wrong, P90X Lean is NOT EASY! P90X is called “extreme home fitness” for a reason. Tony Horton said there are three different P90X workouts: Lean, Classic & Doubles.
Each P90X workout are about an hour (1 DVD) each day, 6 days a week. The 7th day is either a day of rest or the X Stretch workout.
There are 3 phases to the P90X Lean program.
P90X Lean Phase 1 focuses on proper form and technique. Reps and weight will progress as you work through the program, maintaining good form is the goal during this first segment.
During P90X Lean Phase 2, you will begin to increase the amount of weight used for each exercise, as well as the number of reps completed. You’ll begin to notice dramatic improvements in your overall strength and conditioning during this phase.
P90X Lean Phase 3 focuses on pushing your body to the limit and maximizing the results seen from each and every workout. This is the final leg of the 3 phase journey, and it’s no holds barred!
