 Changed my Life and Mindset! AWESOME!Apr 22, 2008
Before I got this I thought the ab muscles in 300 were a digital special effect. I though there was no way someone could be in that sort of shape.
I'd seen the infomercials a few times and was skeptical. 90 days and I would be super fit? I'm really skinny.
But then I thought, "I guess it makes sense. If you workout everyday for an hour or more, and eat right, you should get really fit." If the infomercial was telling me I just had to workout every other day for 15 minutes I wouldn't believe it, but it was really asking me to commit to something.
Now I'll tell you it is a huge commitment. I did it for 4 weeks and then started school and did not have any free time to do it. Most of the time it would take me 1 hour and 15 minutes to complete the workout. But in those 4 weeks I made so many muscles. My face got thinner and muscles I didn't know you were supposed to have showed up.
I didn't use it for about 18 weeks when I was really busy. I thought I lost everything I did in 4 weeks, and then I started again. After 1 week everything I had before came back. I've been doing it now for 3 weeks, so I'm only 1 month into it, but let me say I'm getting awesome fit. I am so excited. I am happy to be where I am just after a month, but I might as well go for superfit.
It is an extremely intense workout. You do what you can and you get better. The ab workout is about 3 days a week, 16 minutes long, but is the most intense thing ever. After a while though you can feel the muscles you are building and it feels great.
I don't want to just be a muscle head, so I'm glad core, cardio, and yoga are included. This actually really turned me onto Yoga. The whole thing, exercising and everything has really pulled me out of the more depressed state I used to be in. I feel so good about myself now.
I did spend a lot of money getting set up. I bought bowflex selecttech weights. I bought bands to simulate pullups. I bought pushup stands. I bought a yoga mat. I spend about $20 a month on recovery drinks. I use accelerade which is great, keeps my muscles from ever aching. I spend about $20 a month on vitamins.
I am very impressed. I would say my physique is now rival to some guys I know that work at gyms and take tons of weight gaining supplements. I see some of these guys with tiny legs or shoulders or weak backs or abs. I'm getting the full workout here. I'm even surprised how much muscle I've been putting on without supplements. I am also a vegetarian and just eating lots of fruit, vegetables, and whole grains.
IT IS WORTH THE INVESTMENT OF YOUR MONEY AND TIME. IT IS HARD WORK, BUT IT WORKS.

Great workout but needs better tracking systemMar 21, 2008
P90X is by far the most challenging, varied, and effective workout system on the market. It takes commitment but the results are real and worth every bit of sweat this will cost you. The only shortcoming is the limited progress tracking tools included with the package. For a 90 day program with 12 workouts, a complex schedule, and nutrition, the paper recording sheets they provide simply don't cut it. There is a cheap Excel worksheet though that fills that gap very nicely. It's called P90Xcel and it's available on eBay or directly from workoutsoft.com. Like Tony would say: "I highly recommend it".

Better than the gymFeb 29, 2008
I love this program. Does all areas: Strength, Cardio, Yoga/flexibility, Core/abs. Is a little longer than my other videos, but I needed that. Did have to buy a pullup bar, but it really took my workout to the next level. Wow, I have been trying to tone the flab on my arms for years with no success until now. I have been trying to define my abs more for years with no success until now. I don't do the plyo every week like you are supposed to b/c it is very hardcore. I have mixed my other cardio videos with this strength after completing the 90 days to keep up the strength but no kill my shins too much, as a female. Only downfall, as a advanced exercise level person, there is too much rest/tony talking time inbetween exercises, which is much needed at the beginning of the first half of the 90 days, but afterwards, I was ready to speed through the resting periods. This is when we purchased a full stand pull up bar stand and now I am back to the beginning. The doorway pull up bars are great to start and then you can get a stand pullup bar to get a greater exercise.

 Great value, real quick pros and consFeb 25, 2008
My wife and I started with this video 5 weeks ago and we are still going strong. It is the first work out the we both enjoy, which makes it easier to stay dedicated.
Pros: The workouts are all challenging. With each routine they clearly demonstrate numerous variations to each of the exercises that increase or decrease the intensity. This is good for beginners, but also ensures that you will not out grow the series. There are so many different routines which, I believe, will help you get the best, most well rounded work out of your life. There several fantastic work outs, like Plyometrics and Kenpo, that I have never previously attempted.
If you never use it past 90 days, it will be well worth every penny; however, my wife and I do the work outs together (which helps!) and are planning to mix it up once we complete the program in 30 more days.
Cons: The only reason I took off a star was for the Yoga routine. It is looooong (90 minutes) and repetitive. About half way through our first day with Yoga, I found myself thinking, "if I have to do one more downward dog I am going to flush this routine!" That being said, I can report that I have become less resistant to Yoga than when I started. Good luck!

P90x isn't a workout, it is a philosophy.Feb 20, 2008
You can tell that alot of time was spent making this a complete workout program. From diet to encouragement to recording before, during and after results [...] and Tony Horton have put together an excellent package. I had been working out hard, running and doing sports coming into the program and it is still challenging. The warm ups are great because I have a tendancy to shirk the warm up and cool down.
