i've searched the forums for info on tapout xt but was mostly only able to find "how many calories should i log" threads about it.

in any case, a good friend of mine wants me to try tapout xt with them. i'm assuming it's something like P90X. can anyone here tell me a little bit about it? pros, cons, success rate, etc?

thanks so much in advance!!! =)

    i have also posted a similiar topic to this inquiring about tapout and if its worth the money or not. i have completed p90x and was looking for a little change.
    i had one commenter state that tapout was harder to follow direction-wise i guess and that the ab workout it has is a waste of time due to the workouts being centered on core work.
    most people though have liked it and stated it was actually fun and have lost quite a bit of weight from it, along with gaining muscle definition. i believe they don't use pull up bars or dumb bells as in p90x does, but they use resistant bands which work well also.

    I started Tapout on June 24th. The same day I joined here. Between counting calories and Tapout I am down 42lbs, 6 inches off my waist (measured around my belly button) and have gone from a tight 40 pant size to a 34.

    I enjoy the workout.

    Unfortunately, you can't get Tapout XT in the UK, believe me i've tried!! But it's workout I'd like to try since it's martial arts based.

    i watched an infomercial on youtube about it, and i'm excited to try it, because i feel like i will learn how to beat people up. LOL. not that i want to do that, but perhaps it'll teach me some self-defense...

    it looks really intense, but i'm determined to give it a shot!

    This is my second week of tap out..i completed p90x and insanity..tapout is a combo of both..its a lot of cardio mixed with the exercise bands..i am enjoying it so far..its harder than p90x but not as hard as insanity..thats the best way i can describe it

    The husband and I were thinking about doing Tapout. He is an Insanity graduate and I am a 3X Chalean Extreme grad. I am just wondering how much it focuses on strength training instead of just cardio. Anybody know?
