Power 90 Review
Serious about getting in shape? Power 90 has got you covered!
I finally started to get serious about weight loss and friends had been telling me about the Power 90 program, so I decided to give it a try. I've been trying to get fit on my own, but not really getting very far with it so I decided I needed something that will help me to take it up a notch and give me some improvements. So with friends recommending it I thought I'd give it a try.
I've done workouts at the gym and done some running, but I didn't seem to be getting very far, so I had high hopes for this program. One thing I know I need is motivation, and in that respect this program really delivered for me. Tony Horton keeps you upbeat, motivated and gives you the desire to keep on going. That's exactly what I needed. The program comes with music in the background, and I really liked the option of being able to turn it off, but still hear his voice. For me, I simple used my own music that I like, with good tempo and did it that way. So when it comes to the music you have options.
The overall program only takes 30 minutes a day, 6 days a week. I found this quite doable, and was surprised that I only needed to do 30 minutes a day. The cardiovascular section really gets you working and is great for boosting your calorie burn as well as getting your heart rate up.
The resistance training using the resistance bands that come with the program, was what really got my muscles working, and it wasn't long before I could see and feel the difference it was making. Around that time I realized that I was really starting to lose a lot of inches on my body. That was something I hadn't seen in a long time. Loved the kick boxing sessions, but really enjoyed the power yoga. The stretching felt so good on my muscles and was great for getting rid of tension after a hard at the office. The stress just melts away. It also helps to stretch and tone the muscles.
One thing you do have to learn is that you really need to combine the exercise program with a change in diet. It's a combination of putting the two together that really helps to accelerate the weight loss. Then the exercises help to tone up those areas where you lose fat and turn it into muscle. The program comes with a diet and nutrition guide that really has some amazing tips, that were new to me and really helped me to change my outlook on some of the foods I was eating, as well as showing me what food to eat to help give me the fuel I needed for the workouts.
As with any workout program you really have to stick with it and stay motivated. You will have online access to support and peer groups, and that helps to keep your motivation levels up, but you also need to really commit yourself to the entire program.
I did for 90 days and got amazing results. I didn't miss workouts and changed my diet. After 90 days I completely changed my life. I had more energy, I looked and felt better and people noticed a complete change in me. The compliments from others also help to keep you motivated. So, if you can stick to it for the 90 days, you will get results. You can't help but tone up and shape up.
If you are skeptical you don't have to worry as the program comes with a 90 day money back guarantee. I doubt few ever return the program, as they should get the results they want if they simply follow it. It's not difficult, takes a short time every day and is very doable.
Another awesome program from Beach Body is the Insanity Workout. If you are looking for something more intense then check that out as well!
