Anyone have any info on this program?

Yes, we bought the program a couple years ago. It's good but hard! It has a diet plan book plus two videos, one is cardio and the other sculping. You sweat like crazy!

The Power 90 program consists of 2 sets of 2 videos. Sweat 1-2 & Sculpt 1-2 and then Sweat 3-4 & Sculpt 3-4. You do your ab workouts (Ab Ripper 100 with the 1-2's and Ab Ripper 200 with the 3-4's) You start out with the 1-2 videos, alternating them so you do each video 3 times a week. The following is a description of the 1-2 videos.

In the P90 program, you're supposed to do 8-15 reps of each exercise.

Regular pushups (hands about 6 inches from chest)
Heavy Pants
Military Press
Standard Bicep Curls
On Arm Tricep Raise
Lunges

- break/stretch-

Fly pushups (hands about 9 inches from chest)
Back Flys
Swimmers Press
Wide Open Curls
Two Arm Kick-Backs
Lunge/Squat (lunge/3 squats/lunge series)

-stretch-

7-7-7's - Fly Pushups/Tricep Pushups (hands right next to chest, keep elbows tight to your body)/Standard Pushups
Lawnmower Start
Shoulder Flys
Bicep 21's ( 7 low half curls, 7 high half curls, 7 straight curls)
Dips
Three Part Squats ( shoulder width/wider/ then wider again)

The Sweat 1-2 workout starts with stretching and Power Yoga, then knee up/arm up with a total of 3 variations and then repeated. Jumping jacks/run in place/run lunge and repeat. X work (think football practice guys - you know, picture a cross on the floor and you're stepping a foot into each box. right front/left front/right back/left back. ), then fast feet, then hops (left front to right back...hop hop hop!) and repeat. - Water break - Then comes the fun stuff. Front kicks/knee thrusts/side kicks - repeat. Jab/cross combo, then hook/upper cut combo, then body blows - repeat. Ends with a 2 minute cool down and some stretching, and then you do the Ab 100 workout (10 ab exercises/10 reps each = 100)

I hope that helps you picture the workout a bit better. I really enjoy it!!

You look great and your stats are awesome. I have tried it before but only lasted 3 weeks before falling off. I am in better shape mentally and really excited to start on Monday. How long have you been doing Power 90 and have you moved on to other exercises..it got a little repititious..but I never made it to the 3 and 4 level. Did you post your photos for the free trip to Hawaii? There are some awesome success stories on the web site. Congratulations and wish me success!

I purchased the Body Flex almost a year ago but only used it a few times. Not enough to get any results. I was wondering if anyone has used it & if it really works like the commercial says ? I am considering buying something else to excerise with. But if the Body Flex works then I will get busy using it !

Can someone tell me about their diet plan? I was recently given the DVDs with 3 resistance bands, but it didn't include the diet plan. Thanks!
