Does anyone know the difference is between P90x and Power 90? I really want to start one of them because I see everyone's great results. I'm out of shape and my goal is to lose about 40 - 50 pounds over the long term. Who has tried Power 90 and what kind of results did you get? Did you do any other exercise (cardio, ect) with the videos? Thanks!

    P90 is the original workout program by Tony Horton. It was created before P90X and can be used to get your body ready to do P90X if you're a beginner. P90X is way more intense and it includes 12 dvds of increasingly intense weight training, cardio, and yoga/streching workouts rather than the 2 cardio/strength training dvds in P90.

    Do a self assessment - would you consider yourself really out of shape, or relatively still in shape (despite being overweight). If truly out of shape, then I'd recommend using P90 - it's an awesome program that they unfortunately don't promote anymore (due to P90x's popularity) that helps you get set in an exercise routine. If you are somewhat still in shape, then jump for the P90x.

    The ONLY negative I can think of about the P90 set is that it tends to get repetitive, as you're using the same 3 DVD's for 3 months, but just add your own music :)
