The below info is from the Beachbody® Coach training manuals and website.  

Dr. Mark Cheng worked with Beachbody® to create Tai Cheng™. 
A martial arts master trainer with more than three decades of experience in Tai Chi—Dr. Cheng used 21st-century sports science to develop Tai Cheng™, which can help your vitality improve with age.

What can Tai Cheng™ do for me?
The Tai Cheng™ workout is based on classical Tai Chi techniques, ancient Qi Gong practices, and modern corrective exercise patterns that both rehab and prehab the body, improving the body’s metabolism, joint function, stress management, and athletic performance!

The Tai Cheng™ program shows you how to customize a workout that feels good, challenges your body, gives you energy, improves circulation, straightens posture, opens your joints, reduces painful trigger points, and promotes balance and flexibility so that your health actually improves as you age.


Who is Tai Cheng™ for?
Tai Chi and the other ancient modalities within the Tai Cheng program are made for EVERYONE. This 13-week regimen delivers tremendous benefits, whether you’re doing the first level moves and using the support of a wall, or you’re an elite athlete who is looking to improve your athletic performance in safer, more holistic ways.


What can I expect in a Tai Cheng™ workout?
Every day, Tai Cheng™ takes you through a gentle, energizing warm-up and teaches you a new Tai Chi move. These workouts are designed to improve balance, awaken dormant energy sources, tone and strengthen your muscles, soothe stiffness, and increase your range of motion.


How long is the Tai Cheng™ program?
Tai Cheng™ is a 90-day program, divided into four phases. You will learn six Tai Chi movements in each of the first three phases; each of these phases is three weeks long. In the fourth phase, which is four weeks long, you learn how to put multiple movements together in sequence.


What kind of equipment will I need?
All you need to do Tai Cheng™ is a 6’ x 6’ space, about an hour a day, and a foam roller, which is included with the program.

Get Ready for the Next Revolution!

P90X2® is one sequel that will definitely live up to the original! Building off the success of the number one fitness program in the world, P90X2® promises to be the most intense, effective, and rewarding workouts ever.

How is P90X2® different from P90X®? 

• Like P90X®, P90X2® is a complete 90-day program, but with all-new, breakthrough workouts.

• It takes the principles and foundation of the P90X® concept and adds cutting-edge training techniques used by some of the world’s top pro sports trainers.

• P90X2® builds agility, core strength, balance and athleticism.

• P90X2® incorporates a breakthrough in sports science called Muscle Integration, which forces to you engage your muscles with every move.

What types of exercises are in the program?

Phase One focuses on your foundation. It includes X2 Core, which works the core using instability; X2 Balance & Power, which incorporates strength and explosive movements; and more.

Phase Two focuses on strength with workouts like Plyocide, combining explosive movements with mind and coordination drills; Chest, Back & Balance, the mega pump of P90X® Chest & Back with the addition of unstable platforms.

Phase Three focuses on performance. It includes P.A.P. Lower and P.A.P. Upper, two separate workouts using a cutting-edge training technique used by some of the fittest athletes on the planet. These are a series of repeated movements or "complexes" that will absolutely destroy you.



What equipment do I need?

All you need to do P90X2® is a couple of dumbbells or resistance bands, a place to do pull-ups (or use your bands), and about an hour a day. A pro-grade stability ball, two 8-lb. medicine balls, and a foam roller are strongly recommended, too.



What if I want a less strenuous program?

If you decide you aren't ready to tackle P90X2® yet but still want to get in great shape fast, we recommend starting with a less extreme program, such as 10-Minute Trainer® or Power 90®. Beachbody® offers a wide variety of incredible fitness programs for all levels and goals, so you're sure to find the one that's right for you.
