P90 vs JoeyD

[CybrSlicr]

I am just getting back into playing after 3-4 years off - very much not in golf shape upon my return :)

I have seen some people mention Joey D and his golf specific workout and I work with someone that is a firm believer in the P90 system. How do they compare? Will I get the same golf benefits out of the P90 system that i would get out of Joey D?

Any thoughts would be most appreciated...

Can't comment on Joey D but Tony Horton and his P90 series are fantastic for speed, balance, and overall strength. Done P90X2 and 3 many times they are awesome.

I don't know about Tony Horton, but I have Joey D's book "Fix Your Body, Fix Your Swing" and I recommend it. The book has fitness tests to see what particular area in which you need the most work. The book gives you a "prescription" to fix whatever it is. 6 tests and specific exercises to address the specific problem. I was deficient in 3 of the 6....balance, hip turn, and shoulder turn.

In my opinion you are comparing apples to oranges. If you want to get in shape do P90, if you want to work on golf-specific exercises do Joey D.

Any of the Beach Body methods are as much about their diet plan as anything. To get the intended result really have to do everything. Any exercise will make you feel better but if looking better in the mirror is one of the measuring stick for you following the diet is important, there is some calorie restriction with the BB stuff. I have the Joey D book and it's meh if you are already fitness minded.

Agree. I do Joey D along with PX90 type exercises. The Joey D part is only 20 minutes.
