The core strength will help a lot with all the workouts and help avoid injuries. I highly recommend it, particularly if you need to focus on your midsection. I’m leaving Ab Ripper X (ARX) as an optional workout on the strength days. I’ve cut quite a bit out of the Yoga workouts, which is typically the one many people find the most challenging from a time and intensity standpoint. It’s okay to cut it short because of time, but the more you can do, the better results you are going to get. When it comes to the Cardio Workouts, I want you to do as much as you can at your own pace. Do not skip the stretch! That’s just a recipe for an injury. Please stop where I’ve indicated and then fast forward to the cool down stretch, unless you feel good and want to keep going. You’ll do three strength training workouts every week. This Modified P90X Schedule takes into consideration two primary concerns-time and intensity. I use the P90X Classic Schedule as the basis for these modifications, because that’s what most people want to follow. I came up with this Modified P90X Schedule for those of you who already have P90X and want to make it work for you. (I now recommend some of the newer programs like Tony’s P90 workout or Chris Downing’s Shift Shop). My first recommendation is to check out a program like Focus T25 as an entry into fitness. We often have people that want to do P90X, but feel like they either don’t have the time to commit to an hour (or more) a day or they just can’t physically keep up with the schedule. If you already have P90X and want shorter workouts, this Modified P90X Schedule is for you! Feel free to CONTACT ME if you have any questions. If you’re just starting out with the P90X Workouts, this may be the best route to go. UPDATE: Since the posting of this article, Beachbody released P90X3 to specifically address the longer workouts in P90X.
