College fitness series: Is P90X worth your time?

It’s not uncommon to find fitness DVDs in garage sales.  Take, for instance, college fitness enthusiast Garry Y. Itkin, who found and picked up a set of Beachbody.com’s P90X DVDs at a very affordable price. 

In today’s blog, Garry Y. Itkin shares his a few facts and insights on the P90X program, so people may know if it’s worth their time.

Tony Horton knows what he’s talking about.

Every original fitness program is only as good as the person who developed it, and the man behind P90X, Tony Horton, sure knows what he’s talking about.  He’s separated many of the workout routines and their schedules in ways that a lot of the best gym trainers would. 

The workouts are highly modifiable.

A huge plus for Garry Y. Itkin when it comes to workouts is that it can be done by anyone of any fitness level.  And anyone can do P90X.  Sure, it may take a bit of getting used to, and some routines are harder than others, but because their modifiable, they can be made easier or more difficult.

It’s fun.

Why do a workout or anything at all if you’re not enjoying yourself?  What’s the point?  And this is what Garry Y. Itkin says about P90X.  People on the videos with Tony are loads of fun, and Tony himself is a great motivator.  Which is, of course, another huge plus.
