Yoga XPart of the P90X Classic, Phase 1, Weeks 1-3 program. This workout has never been performed. |
Description
Namaste... welcome to Yoga X. The philosophy of hatha yoga, on which this program is based, is that the more you can focus on the breath through each pose, the less you will notice the strain and discomfort. That's the goal of this workout. Although guys in particular may question yoga's place in the X program, after one session they will understand why this body-sculpting workout is a vital part of extreme fitness and an integral component of P90X. If you're new to yoga, this won't be easy - but you'll be amazed at your progress in just 90 days.
