P90X Extreme Home Fitness Review

May 1st, 2010 · 1 Comment

If you are into music workout videos – this is not for you. If you are specifically trying to get rid of your butt and thighs – this is not for you (P90X doesn’t even have a dvd entitled butt and thighs). If you are looking for something easy – this is not for you. However, if you like to sweat profusely, have a subconscious death wish or would love to show off your one handed push up or one arm pull up at the family cookout – this is for you!

Buy P90X on eBay!

If you haven’t seen the midnight commercials for this product, you are either from another planet or you go to bed really early. Don’t worry. Neither of those disqualify you from starting this program. P90X requires a lot of commitment and determination. I definitely suggest doing a little research before you start to see what you might be getting yourself into. P90X is for people who are already in good shape but are looking to take it to the next level in some way.

The P90X program has 3 levels you can work – Classic, Doubles and Lean (I call it Lean and Lovely). The Classic is for all around muscle gain and weight loss. Doubles seems to be for people who have to get in shape quickly. And Lean is for people who don’t want to gain a lot of muscle but are looking to tone up and gain some definition. P90X comes with a food program but I met a few people who didn’t follow any food program and still saw reasonable results. P90X and Insanity, which is also made by the Beach Body company, are 2 programs that work you so hard, unless you are eating fried chicken all day, you will still lose weight and look pretty good.

I was asked to highlight the benefits of this program from a woman’s perspective since it seems like such a “manly” program or a program geared towards muscle gain. P90X really gives you the ability to create a high intensity program that works for you. The best part of P90X is the fact you can do it at home anytime. For those of us who have to travel for our careers, you can also load the program onto a memory card or stick to take with you so you don’t miss out on a workout. I also feel P90X is a great program to use for women who were active before or during a pregnancy to help with removing the extra baby weight after delivery. For the women who are concerned about “bulking up,”  choosing the “lean” program will give you the chance to tone up and build a reasonable amount of muscle and strength without looking like a WWE wrestler.

The main component of every workout program is dedication and commitment. If you are dedicated to following P90X at least 3 times a week, it will work for you. I look forward to reading about everyone’s P90X experiences and seeing the before and after pictures.
