In all honesty, I've further optimized my workouts and have gotten down to working out only about 10 minutes per day and then doing just one P90X workout per week. When you hit the place you want to be, it's fairly easy to maintain. It's just a lot of hard work getting there. Now I mostly try to make my workouts as fun as possible... and I try to space things out. I might do a max set of pullups. I can do about 25. I push myself to go until failure. And then I'm done with pullups for a few days. Same with pushups. I also really enjoy doing primal movement exercises (crab walk) while chasing my kids around the house... you can't get much better than mixing play and exercise.

I was wondering how this workout modification worked for you, as I was thinking of doing something similar when I finish, keeping the lifting workouts & either modifying/slowing down the Kenpo & Plyo or substituting with other "fun" cardio like cycling, hiking, etc., in addition to adding sprints once per week. Any thoughts? Thanks! ~Amanda Interesting post; I’m just finishing Phase 3 of P90x and have gotten into the primal blueprint over the past few weeks.

Glad after searching your site to hear it worked for you. I think at this stage I need the structured plan and the gym personal trainer hasn't worked for me. Not sure I will be able to "bring it" for the full 90 days but maybe I will surprise myself :) I just bought p90x and some of the stuff they say you need, or closest I could get here (but not going to use suppliments).
