Anyone looking for the next best workout or something new to add to their workout routine should really consider doing P90X or incorporating some of Bruce Lee’s workouts. Both workouts will boost your body to the max and give you excellent results. Let’s see which one is more demanding.
Bruce Lee was one of the most dominant martial artists of all time. His ability to make amazing movements in his movies is what made him famous. He was also able to win a ton of competitions and even taught. His training was so demanding that he did 5 days a week. He didn’t exercise for hours on end, but he had intense one to two hour sessions that worked on a variety of muscles. Since his profession considered speed one of his greatest assets, he worked on the use of weights in all of his cardiovascular workouts. He changed his training every day. His most famous workout consisted of working the same muscle zones on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The other muscles would be worked on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Exercising six days a week is pretty strenuous and you would only give yourself one day off.
P90X has a variety of workouts spread over a three-month period. After the three-month period, you can still use these workouts to continue for another ninety days. This workout has twelve different routines that last about an hour. You use weights, drawbars, and resistance bands. Each workout is one hour of uninterrupted movement for whatever muscle group you are working on. P90X targets two or three different muscle groups at the same time. What makes this great is that those muscles are usually complementary groups that feed off each other. On the days that you are not resistance training, you are doing yoga, kenpo, and plyometrics.
The Bruce Lee and P90X workout routines are very similar to each other. Both are made to build your muscles and for all fitness levels. It really depends on what you want to get out of your training and how much time you are willing to put into it. Like everything, you only get what you put in.
