As you may have read, I just finished my third round of P90X and Mrs. GIAS just finished her second round. We both admit that the last round was good and we made good progress in our fitness, although our diet could have been tighter around the holidays. (What can I say, my wife and mother like to bake and I like to eat!) Anyway, we decided tojump right back into another 90 day round although with a few changes. We've done P90X "classic" a number of times now and we want to mix it up a bit - remember as Tone-Tone says, variety is the spice of fitness. So what I did was take all of the Beachbody workouts that we currently own (yeah it's a lot - 12 P90X discs, 4 P90X+ discs, 15 One on One's and 10 Insanity discs) and put them into one massive hybrid workout routine that would offer us the structre that Tony Horton created with P90X but give us some different workouts to play with so we wouldn't get bored and plateau. We haven't done any of the Insanity discs yet and have only done a few of the One on One's, so it should be pretty fun to get some new workouts in. Below is our schedule for the next 90 days, subject to change if we decide that it needs to be tweaked. If you've done any of these programs, let me know what you think of this hybrid:
