Hi Beavvv-
Feel free to add me as a friend!0 -
What do you guys have for equipment? I just ordered the DVDs and I'm going to buy a pull up bar for the door but I'm trying to figure out what I'll need for weights.0

I am gonna start p90x today and do running on cardio days. Its good to have someone else doing it as well. Which program are u leaning towards. I am gonna do the classic.
Good luck you can do it.0 -
I strongly reccomend the pull up bar. I don't have a place for it in my house now, and doing the back exercises with the bands, just isn't the same.0

Im in my second week of round 2 !! Adding Insanity for cardio....so P90X 3 days and Insanity 3 day !! I actually went into Hybrid mode on phase 3 of my first round.....Intense is all I can say !!
Lost 30 pounds so far.......work in progress !0 -
I actually don't have the pull-up bar yet, so I will be using the bands for right now.... do you guys who have done it think the pull up bar is essential? I'm worried about ruining my moldings!
In terms of weights I have adjustable ones that go from 5-25 lbs.0 -
I was thinking about starting it today, after reading others are starting I think I will go ahead and start it.. thanks !!!!0

I'm doing the classic as well... although I am hoping to mix some running in probably 2 mornings a week. I'd like to do the couch to 5k program as well but I don't want to totally overwhelm myself either....0 -

Completed P90X and you can plan to be in pain every day for 3 months! I never used the pull up bar but my husband did. Do it with someone if you can because you will have many days where you just don't want to do the workout. You'll love some and hate others. Keep at it though~ you'll be glad you did! I used the rubber bands in the doorjam and used weights of 5-20 lb increments. The beauty of those workouts is that you can do them at any level. You'll work up to the heavier weights and the stronger push ups. But stay patient! No real equipment is necessary other than floor space, a good mat and some light weights. Good luck!0

Thanks, starnca - How were your results?0

My wife and I have completed P90X Twice. My wife lost 37lbs and has a big biceps to back it up! lol She used dumbells from 5lbs-20lbs. She also used the pullup bar. Make sure you drink a recovery drink. It really helps the sore muscles. Don't over do it the first week. I also suggest watching each workout before you start. This will help you get the correct form and tips. Hope this helps a little. Good luck!
Also EAT good calories. Follow the nutritional book. You're going to need the extra calories!0 -
I did it earlier this year and I really need to start again. Hmmmm.....0
