Superhero X12 vs Athlean-X vs P90X Conclusion.Running the Module in the Gym Can Be Complicated Cardio X - This low impact cardio workout is pulled from the other workouts into a compilation of days when you're not sure if you can 'bring it.You will indeed feel like someone ripped out your abs with such gems as "Seated Crunchy Frogs" and the "Crossed Leg Wide Leg Sit Up." Ab Ripper X - This 15-minute workout, done after some of the other workouts, says it all.Good luck lifting your arms after this one. The variety is amazingĀ - corn cob pull-ups, which I can't even describe, crouching concentration curls, and even pull-ups with a towel. Back & Biceps - This hour-long nightmare (my husband's word) includes yet more pull-ups as well as biceps exercises.
There are a variety of killer moves - pushups, including a one-arm version that caused a few face-plants in my house, dips, and shoulder presses.
However, the pushups (and there are a lot of them) and crazy core moves like Banana rolls and plank/pushups had my husband gasping, " This is supposed to be recovery week?" Core Synergistics - The fact that this workout is scheduled during rest week makes it sound like a soothing, low-key workout.There are no pull-ups or pushups, just an hour of dynamic and static stretching for the entire body.
You repeat a series of punches, kicks, and combinations for a moderate intensity workout. Kenpo X - This workout almost feels like a relief, with straightforward kickboxing moves.Some require no weights at all, but you'll still feel the burn with a variety of lunges, squats, and wall sits. Legs & Back - You get to do more pull-ups (yay!) along with challenging lower body exercises.There are common poses like sun salutations, downward dogs, and warriors, but there are challenging, advanced moves (such as the crow pose) that almost made my husband cry. Yoga X - This 90-minute routine is as challenging as the strength workouts.At the end of this, my husband remarked, "I can't feel my triceps. Shoulders & Arms - This workout involves a series tri-sets in which you work the shoulders, biceps, and triceps one after the other.over and over and over.My husband did this the first time on a business trip and texted, "I'm tired after the warm-up." Plyometrics - This very tough workout is an hour of powerful and intense plyometric exercises like jump squats, side jumps, and squat jumps, all of which leave you a dripping mess.Tony shows modifications (e.g., using a band if you don't have a pull-up bar) and suggests stopping when needed.or, as in my husband's case, collapsing. Chest & Back involves alternating a variety of pushups and pull-ups, doing as many as you can in the allotted time, as well as a few strength moves.
