We decided to do something a little unconventional for our summer workouts this year. The whole team is doing P90X. We started it during the spring and everyone seemed to enjoy it. It's not for the faint of heart but the results are very rewarding. Here is a summary of P90X from a nutritional website that we consulted-

The P90x Nutrition Plan is centered on a powerful 13-week physical fitness program, combined with healthy eating habits, guaranteed to help you lose weight and regain the confidence in having a firm, toned body. We found in our p90x Review that the emphasis is on the importance of regular exercise to increase stamina and build muscle to replace excess weight. Carl Diekler and his company have developed a super program in the p90x Nutrition Plan that really revs up your metabolism for fast weight loss to burn away those unwanted calories.

We wanted our weight training to emphasize joint stabilization, agility and long lean muscle. Many of the players were concerned about becoming too bulky. P90X seems to solve that problem.
