Pour Flys (appears in Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps): This is the one where you do a straight-arm fly out to the side with a light weight, and when your arms are parallel to the floor you rotate your hands down as though you were pouring water from a glass.Skip it completely or substitute regular standing bicep curls. This puts way too much strain on your lower back, especially when you try to “heavy up” your weight. Crouching Cohen Curls (appears in Shoulders & Arms and Back & Biceps workouts): In this move you crouch down, lean your butt against a wall and perform bicep curls.There are some additional moves that I fast forward through because I don’t get any benefit from them, plus it saves more time during my early morning workouts (I only have an hour). Along the way I’ve also learned what works and what doesn’t work for me. Now that I’m almost through my third round I just skip forward through them completely and save my energy for the following moves. At first I substituted something else for them so I wouldn’t feel cheated. I learned from my coach who went through the P90X Certification course what these three moves are. There are several exercises in P90X that are no longer recommended due to risk of injury.
