This workout has a lot going on. There are planks and balances and pushups. There are weighted squats and yoga poses. I get to use both dumbbells AND my body. I guess that is why they call it Total Synergistics.
Total Synergistics gives you 16 moves in all. Each move is done an average of 10 times (some more some less depending on the move).
One of my favourite moves in the workout is the side rise punch. While laying on your side you push yourself up with top arm and then while holding a dumbbell you punch out and then lower yourself back down. You get to hammer your arms in a few different ways with this one.
Another one I like is the glamour hammer. Maybe I like it because the name but also because I like hammer curls. They make me feel bad ass.
One particular move the I have a love hate relationship with the boat/plow combo. This one gives both my husband and I some trouble. Same goes for the push up side arm balance and the crawly plyo pushups. However at this point in the program I am actually getting considerably better at those as well.
As usual the cast is fantastic. I especially like the two girls who both appear in some of the other X3 workouts.
When I am all finished with the P90X3 program Total Synergistics is definitely a workout I plan to rock out on many occasions just on it's own.
