Hey everyone!
What kind of equipment is needed for P90X?
Is that pull up bar absolutely necessary?
Thanks

I was wondering that too as I plan to do it when I've finished Insanity0

i have both pull up bar and bands, i mostly use the bands. they hook onto your door and work great if you get the right tension.0

I talked to my hubby who has done the program. He says that there is a modifier for pretty well everything and that the pull up bar is not absolutely necessary. You will need dumbells, resistance bands, something along those lines though. Hope that helps. I'm already thinking of doing an Insanity/p90x hybrid after.0

Apart from using resistance bands, you could also use a table or something similar - just be creative and modify the movements if you need to :-) Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYUxXMGVuuU
I just love P90X!0 -
Bands for sure. Pull up bar optional. Dumbells needed too0

I use resistance bands with door anchor. Here are the best ones I have found (others with more bands are avaliable) http://www.amazon.com/Bodylastics-Resistance-components-membership-LIVEEXERCISE/dp/B006NY7PVO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367210626&sr=8-1&keywords=resistance+bands+bodylastics
For the pull ups I put the door anchor at the top of the door and kneel on the yoga mat.
Then just hand weights in 5, 8, 10, 12 pounds and a yoga mat.
Oh and Marshalls has the best prices on weights that I have found.0
