Below is the schedule I am following during my Round 2 workouts. It is based on the P90X system, using the P90X lifting workouts (mostly), but there is a lot of variety added with the P90X Plus series, Insanity cardio, more intense Ab days, and even some bun-shaping! What I really like about this hybrid is that my Training Block 3 isn’t just a mix of Block 1 and 2. It’s totally different, using 1-on-1′s. That way, I can roll right back into Training Block 1 and do it all over again while maximizing the muscle confusion.

Hey Coach, which Plyo dvd did you find the ost difficult? Plyocide, Plyometric(P90X), or Max Plyo?
Hey Mitch, Plyocide is the most difficult if you FF through the talking and keep the pace up. PlyoX is a good leg workout because of all the deep lunging moves, and Max Plyo is a great cardio workout. Plyocide is my favorite though. And the P90X2 version of it will be totally nuts!
Thanks Coach! Can’t wait for the P90X2 to release! and congrats on actually being in the videos.
Hey Coach,
I was hoping to start this workout and was looking at the listed workouts and possible substitutions. I currently have p90x, p90x+ and insanity, are there any suggested substitutions you have for the brazil butt lift workouts, perhaps from the p90x 1 on 1 series I can buy individually as I dont want to buy the complete brazil but lift set series.
thanks,
-champ
Hey Champ, I’d recommend just doing all abs on those days instead of abs plus BBL. In other words, do ARX and cardio abs, or Killer Abs and Abs/Core Plus, etc.
Coach,
I apologize if I missed your response on this. On the cardio days, what did you typically substuite for the push-ups?
Hey Richard, I varied it (usually picked one of the Insanity exercises and did it while the video was doing pushups).
Hi Coach Wayne, I really like this hybrid but I noticed that legs and back is not in there. Do you think the workouts do you choose for day 6 are good enough for leg results?.. sorry for my English.
Hey Sandra, all the plyo and Insanity seems to give my legs all the exercise they need. I’ve stayed very balanced and strong in the legs as well as the upper body (see my day 550 update from today for a leg pic).
Hey Coach im looking for a hybrid with P90x P90x plus and insanity im lookin at all of yours but they all have 1 on 1 videos d you think I can substitute or what?
Sure DJ, you can make any type of hybrid you want, with whatever workouts you want. Look at my article “creatine a hybrid” for the tips on how to best structure it, but let your creative juices flow! Make it what you want! I can give you feedback after you put it together.
i have p90x but not insanity or the 1 on 1′s. do i need to buy insanity and the 1 on 1′s in order to do the hybrid?
Hey Brett, a “hybrid” is a mixing of more than 1 program, so if you only have P90X you can’t do any hybrids. Just do P90X again … or get some other programs and put them into a hybrid! :-).
My recommendation if you want to do a hybrid is to get Insanity and do a P90X Insanity hybrid.
also, since im only 14, would p90x2 be to much for me at my age even when i complete p90x?
Hey Brett, you can do P90X2 at your age. No problem!
Hey Coach Wayne.I was planning on doing the p90x/insanity hybrid that you outlined but was wondering if your round 2 hybrid would be more effective. Which would you recommend?
Hey Courtney, I did the round 2 hybrid only because I had all those workouts available. I liked it a lot. The P90X Insanity hybrid is good though if all you have is P90X and Insanity (no P90X Plus or the 1-on-1′s).
I am doing the p90x/insanity hybrid and just starting the 3rd week. I noticed in the second month there is an insanity workout that i don’t have, the total body which you suggest using the back and leg instead. I do have the p90x+ program and was wondering if I could use the full body workout with this program. Any suggestions? Just got the free sample of shakeology and it was awesome. Thanks
Hey Marty, sure you can try the Total Body Plus workout. It wasn’t my favorite, but that’s my personal preference.
Glad you liked the Shakeology sample!
Hey coach, do you have to the ab workouts directly after the “main” workouts or can you do them seperetly, the main workout in the morning and the ab workout in the evening?
Hey MC, you can definitely split them up. No problem.
hey coach, here comes another one. are you supposed to eat “big” meals every 2-3 hours with snacks in between or are you supposed to eat every 2-3 hours wheter it is a snack or meal? tanks
Hey MC, just eat a total of 6x per day (3 meals and 3 snacks).
Coach….im in last phase of P90 X….is it ok to sub out yoga and kempo for some insanity workouts…if so, which ones?
Sure! Go for it if you want the extra calorie burn. Look at my P90X Insanity hybrid (also in the workout zone tab) for the workouts I’d recommend putting in that place (there are month 1 workouts and month 2 Max workouts.
