Ab Ripper X 2 - New One on One
Ok boys and girls. I received this month's One-on-One workout which is Ab RipperX 2. It comes with "fancy" dog tags. Woo-hoo!
I am previewing now and will update with moves. Carrie It is actually raining in LA where Tony lives. Our man is in black Nike shorts, a red P90X shirt, and shoeless. Moves: Banana Two Crunch: two tight crunches then extend arms and legs out straight; Tony does 20 reps Scissor Twist: kind of like bicycle crunch but legs are straight (hence the scissor); Tony does 13, then takes a break, comes back for a total of 20 Oblique Roll Crunch: lay on hip, legs extended, hand behind ear; crunch up into side "V", roll to other side and repeat; Tony does 20 reps Side Arm Balance Crunches (Tony says it comes from 10 Minute Trainer): in full side plank, crunch top arm and leg in; Tony does 20 reps on each side Bug Bicycle Crunch: knees come in like a bicycle but legs come in and out straight and arms reach over same leg; Tony does 30 reps Row Your Boat: up on butt, act like you are on a rowing machine, arms go back, knees come in; Tony does 30 reps Scissor Clapper (on your back or butt): legs come up in scissor, hands clap under thigh; Tony does 40 repos The Abronome: I call these Russian Twists; lay on back, legs straight up, arms out, drop legs to each side; Tony does 30 reps but he seems to count incorrectly or something... Draw Bridge Lift: I know these as a reverse crunch except legs go back to ground (close) with each rep; lay on back, legs straight out, raise legs up and lift butt off ground; Tony does 20 reps Phelan Twist Lift: sitting up, legs out and above the ground, arms crossed, reach with elbow to each side; Tony does 25 reps Elbow to Knee to Toe Double Crunch (or something like that): crunch up, touch elbows to knees, hands to toes, elbows to knees, feet do not touch the ground; Tony does 30 reps High Low Open Close: shoulders off ground; legs out straight, legs go out, legs come in, legs come up, legs go down, repeat; Tony does 20 reps Corkscrew Crunch: sit up, leaning back on upper butt, knee to elbow (or elbow to knee); Tony does 14 on each side One Kick Two Kick V-Crunch (In Boat Pose): in boat pose with knees in, right leg out, left leg out, both legs out; Tony does 21 reps (each leg out is one rep) Roll To Boat: roll from back (knees to chest) up to boat pose; Tony does 25 reps Superman Banana X: superman (on stomach, arms and legs out straight) rolling to back, arms and legs out to make an X The Tornado: on back, arms out to the sides, legs go round and round (making a circle); Tony does 15 each way Next move was supposed to come before Superman Banana X and The Tornado but Tony missed it the first time around and realized it here. Banana Roll-up Toe Grab V-Boat: roll to boat pose, grab toes, take legs out to a "V"; Tony loses count on number of reps and so did I since I was busy typing!! Through the Legs and Round the Back (uses 4 pound medicine ball): up in boatish pose, ball under each leg and then around the back; he renames this one "The Magic" for Magic Johnson. Bicycle 100: the name says it all, 100 bicycles. This looks like a GREAT ab workout; extremely intense. I don't think I would do it as a whole thing because (for me) it is ab overkill. However, I will definitely do it in 10-15 minute chunks. The workouts is about 45 minutes total. I think all you core workout junkies will love it (I'm looking at you, A-Jock!!)! Next month's workout is Shoulders and Arms. I have decided I will wait and get one workout for each body part and then probably cancel my auto-ship. I also reserve the right to change my mind!

I just caught a snippet of this on the P90X FB page. Yie! :eek:

That breakdown confirms my long-held suspicion that Tony is completely mad.
:eek: :cool: |
I previewed this too and wondered why Tony didn't use any plank moves for variety. :confused::confused:

45 minutes of this stuff?? :eek:
I like the idea of doing it in 15-minute chunks, though. Ab Ripper X is great, but it gets old when you're doing an X rotation. Seems like you could sub any 15 minutes of this one. |
Thanks for sharing the breakdown of the workout. It is very long for an abs workout, the idea of using short portions of the workout at a time is smart.

Carrie, thanks for posting this thread and the breakdown. I love Ab Ripper X so I had to have ARX 2. I don't have any of the One on One workouts. Which other ones are good?
