mathnerd Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I am a non-tv watcher - so have not seen the P90X3 on TV on the infomercials. An acquaintance was raving about it (in my son's swimming class and I have not seen that person recently to check with him). I saw the other thread about losing a lot of weight using this program. Could someone explain it to me? Is it an exercise video or is it an exercise equipment? Thanks! ETA: How much does it cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snickerdoodle Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I'm pretty sure you can see their infomercial on the intertubes http://www.beachbody.com/product/p90x-what-you-get.do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hsbeth Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Just wanted to say that a local friend and I have been doing this since January. She is a veteran of the first two programs (and in great shape) but I had never used them. They are 30 minute workout videos of many varieties (upper body strength, lower body strength, cardios, yoga/flexibility types). There are 12 total and a few standalones you can by. They are scheduled for you with a couple of alternatives emphasis on strength, emphasis on lean cardio, emphasis on bulk. We did a 12 week cycle of basic strength and are now doing a 12 week cycle of the lean cardio. We still do strength, just less of it. Pros: 30 minute intense workouts, variety keeps me from boredom, am stronger for sure Cons: doing the basic program I bulked up a bit (not my intention) although I did tone some, didn't see weight loss. Very little equipment is required just hand weights and pull-up bar, a few other extras, but not necessary. I like the lean schedule better. When doing the classic I added in some extra jogging on my own before I saw any weight loss. PM if you have specific questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
