P90X Classic and Lean Workout Schedule

P90X Lean exercise schedule

The P90X lean version of the P90X extreme home exercise program is intended for those who just want to cut fat and get more tone. You will still use the entire 12 set DVD collection for your lean program, just in a different configuration. More women are interested in this version than men since there is less weight lifting involved. In the P90X Classic version, there is much more weight lifting, pull ups, and push ups.

If you are familiar with the classic P90X program, you will notice that they have removed one of the traditional weight lifting blocks with a cardio workout. That's it. It is not a huge difference at all, but over 13 weeks, it does make a difference. So bottom line, if you want to tone up, go with the P90X lean version. If you want to build muscle, go with the classic version. And if you want to go insane, go with the 90X Doubles version. This is basically two-a-days.
