Power 90: Sculpt Circuit 1-2

Tony Horton
Year Released: 2000

Categories: Total Body Workouts


Yes, this series is 13 years old, but it's new to me. The previous review is quite comprehensive so only personal perceptions from me. I'm familiar with Tony from P90X and he is quite subdued in this.

The workout seems to be designed for beginners as the leg work is bodyweight only - walking lunges & squats, but an intermediate/advanced person could hold weights for those. The upper body exercises suit anyone by using an appropriate weight for 8-15 reps. I used 4kg (9lb), 5kg (11lb) and 6kg (13lb) weights.

Even though there was no music, the time went by quickly - 1-2-3 (circuits) DONE.

On the whole it's useful because it hits (almost) everything but is also brief. "Almost" everything because this has no abdominal work - that's in another one of the set. Tony finishes with a comment something like "see you for cardio & abs tomorrow" - assuming you're doing the P90 rotation.


Instructor Comments:
For those who find his usual style annoying - this probably wouldn't be the case. He's less playful, reining in his vivacious personality.
