Can this be effectively used with the P90x workout?

Short answer yes, long answer I've used them for p90x, so far the most I've used is the top 3 bands and I'm a 220 pound guy, as far as bands go they're great, but sometimes shortening the bands by stepping on a loop can be awkward for some of the exercises, if you can afford to get the dumbbells they are still in my opinion better but, the bands still do a pretty good job and are wayyyy cheaper and easier to store, the door anchor comes in very handy as well and is sturdy, have had them for several months and so far the only thing I've had wear out is after the first couple months the sewing on the handles started to come loose, but duct tape has been a lasting and easy fix Short answer yes, long answer I've used them for p90x, so far the most I've used is the top 3 bands and I'm a 220 pound guy, as far as bands go they're great, but sometimes shortening the bands by stepping on a loop can be awkward for some of the exercises, if you can afford to get the dumbbells they are still in my opinion better but, the bands still do a pretty good job and are wayyyy cheaper and easier to store, the door anchor comes in very handy as well and is sturdy, have had them for several months and so far the only thing I've had wear out is after the first couple months the... » Read More Short answer yes, long answer I've used them for p90x, so far the most I've used is the top 3 bands and I'm a 220 pound guy, as far as bands go they're great, but sometimes shortening the bands by stepping on a loop can be awkward for some of the exercises, if you can afford to get the dumbbells they are still in my opinion better but, the bands still do a pretty good job and are wayyyy cheaper and easier to store, the door anchor comes in very handy as well and is sturdy, have had them for several months and so far the only thing I've had wear out is after the first couple months the sewing on the handles started to come loose, but duct tape has been a lasting and easy fix « Show Less

Yes. That's exactly what we bought it to use for! Good luck with the program.

Yes it can. I use it for that exact purpose. It isn't perfect, some of the exercises work better with dumbells, but it has been effective for me. I would recommend them for P90X.

Definitely. I bought these specifically for P90x. With some of the exercises it's more effective to not use the handles but otherwise a great product. And with P90x they show how to perform the exercises with the bands. I recommend them.

Absolutely. It is what I use with P90x for pull ups/back, biceps, triceps, and shoulders

If you do the lean program and do the beast cardiovascular routine then there is some jumping yes. But in the regular weight lifting routines which you will be doing 95% of the time there is no jumping. Just be careful dripping weights as that is loud as well. Other than that I don't forsee it being a problem. It's not like P90X in that way.

I'm not really familiar with P90X program however I will say this. Heart monitor can be used with any type of exercise, but Garmin watch is primarily made for outdoor, distance-based exercises like running/walking/, cycling and I think that calories burned estimate is based on 3 factors - distance, duration of the exercise and heart rate so perhaps in your case in may not be as relevant.

I don't, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't. Honestly, I would probably get bored. I threw in a day where I would lift weights, and then I would throw in the P90 Cardio routine on the off days.

I am a personal trainer but am not associated with P90X in anyway. In fact, I will recommend you use a different product (Mike's Mix). Much more affordable and just as effective. P90X is a decent product but it includes a number of ingredients that are included only because it sounds good to do so but will have very little effect on your recovery. It is very important to take in recovery of some sort after a workout but can be done by whole foods if you prefer. Mostly, it's a matter of preference. Your body will absorb the liquid faster than whole foods but in the grand scheme of recovery, is not going to be detrimental if that's what you prefer. Hope this helps!

Yes. I've been using this for two years. It is great for anyone whether they're doing P90-X, standard lifting, etc. I'd go with this combo specifically too. Doesnt take up too much room and makes for easier weight adjustment. Almost no assembly so he can get right to work!

P90 does include jumping jacks, running in place and run lunges. The goal of all of those is to "land softly" so maybe you could manage doing them quietly. Otherwise I guess you'd have to skip that part. Doing in in socks or maybe on a rubber mat may help to. You could definitely do the rest of it though.

I purchased this to use with P90X & it works great. Best I can tell it's the same thing they use in the video.

Hi April, I think they are different. I have tried P90x and I didn't care for it. I had the bands to work with however were other equipment I didn't have that really made it hard to do the whole DVD. I wouldn't say one is better than the other I would just say which one is right for you. I really need to build up my cardio and that is what Insanity is doing for me. I also feel like insanity goes faster. I am already tired after the warm up but the DVD seems to go by faster. With P90X it seemed to drag but that could just be me. I haven't done P90x in almost 2 years.

I use 4 of these for p90x workouts. Heavy equipment is no problem for these. They are great.

I wouldn't see why you couldn't, but as I said in my original review, I have seen no difference at all from the use of the product. I have used it prior to an intense work out and also used as others by simply putting in on and going about my day. I was disappointed, but it was worth a shot and it probably reacts with everyone differently. Hope it works for you! Good luck :)

I've done P90X and crossfit and I would recommend this mat. I don't slide, slip, or sink like on a foam mat. And your weights won't ruin the mat.

yes! I use it with mine everyday at the gym, it really does work. However there is no warning when it needs to be charged it just dies. I do love it though

No! These are very repetitive workouts that are just boring! Don't waste your money. Invest in Insanity or other P90x if you're bored.

Sorry. I have heard of T25, but not used it to exercise with. I love P90X3. It is quote vigorous and fast. It helped to have used P90X previously since many actions are advanced version of those on P 90 X.

I'm sure you can use it for that but there are definitely cheaper tools targeted for that specific use. I used this bar for practicing the technique and form of my Olympic lifts. You can use it for whatever you like though!! Good luck

Yes it does. My son and daughter who are avid exercisers say that this rower has much more of a workout than those typically found in the gym. My daughter said it was like a P90X rower. I am very satisfied with this rower as I have had no problems with it. I bought it to put some regular exercise into my daily routine.
