ImUrOBGYN Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Ok, I was thinking of finally starting this. I had it before, but lost it all when my harddrive crashed. I know there are at least a few people on here who've used P90. My birfday is coming up and I was considering asking for equipment the program requests. I would like to know what your experience has been with it, good or bad, however minute or grand the experience was for you. Any other info would be excellent, ie; opinions, how long before results, etc. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest slow f23 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 i know of a girl who once was pretty big lol but she'd been working out on the p90x and looks way better now. I looked through the films and there is like a massive conditioning program and stuff.. looks legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHaze Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 It's really meant for people who are in moderate shape to get ripped, I think. A lot of people use it to lose weight, however, it's tough as shit especially if you are not already a little inclined towards exercise. No harm in trying it, but I suggest you only do the lighter routines on the dvds while dieting and doing cardio. I lost 53 pounds over the summer and will be giving p90x another go here shortly.

iwashmycar Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 I use some of the routines but thats about it. I dont have the time to put in that it would take to 'do it thier way' definately intense stuff, and as cheesey as the host dude is, he's pretty motivating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 If you are not in a "decent shape", P90X will probably not last for you. If you are not in a "decent shape", 10 Minute Trainer is a better option, until you are in a "decent shape". This is just MY opinion... :thumbup: KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 the only thing I know about P90x is the blonde in the infomercial is smoking hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate1647545505 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 It's rough. Doing it now. +1, one of our PT variations is P90x, it will whip the shit out of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallard Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Has anyone ever compared P90X to Crossfit? I'e heard good things from friends on both of those programs. Everyone I know that's on P90X was really sore and say the workouts are intense. It's supposed to be an "Xtreme" workout though. Crossfit tells you to scale the workouts to your fitness level. Both look like circut training programs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black00ws6 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 These views are very biased since it's on the crossfit board, but has some good points on comparing the two... http://www.board.crossfit.com/showthread.php?t=46934 I'd be interested in hearing about some of the workouts P90X has compared to some of the crossfit workouts I've done or put my classes through.

ImUrOBGYN Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Well, I'm definitely not in good shape anymore. A few years back, I put on weight and aggravated an old back injury which just kept me from exercising enough. When I looked into P90 before, I noticed there is a set of test exercises or whatever they recommend you be able to accomplish before moving on with the actual program. I figured if I couldn't do it, I'd must keep at it until I could accomplish the test exercises. I'll check out the Crossfit and 10min trainer, as well. I know I need something with a very set program and goals to be accomplished if I hope to stick with it. Especially, since I'm doing by myself.

KillJoy Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 The 10 Minute Trainer Infomercial is on early on the Weekends I got it for the Misses.... if you want to get into a decent physical condition... it will do it for you. P90x just takes it from there, to the extreme.... hence the "x" KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwishiwascool Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I "bought it" from mininova last night. While I still see the gym 2-3 times a week, my workouts are pretty weak compared to a year ago. I could use some intensity and variation. Ill do it with before and after shots.

iwashmycar Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 ive done a couple of the routines so far and I must say, I enjoy it. The Ab ripper is pretty damn good for only a 24 minute thing! I also didnt really know what Plyometrics were, and found out the hard way lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I went from a morbidly obese 540lbs to an anorexic 98lbs. THANKS P90X!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 After I started on P90x I've noticed that I can last longer, cum harder, and my girlfriend says I taste better too!!! THANKS P90X!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwishiwascool Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Started today. I'm in semi good shape; I bench 280ish, can run a few miles, Squat and dead-lift a decent amount. The first workout made me almost throw up. Tony Horton's ego is over the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
