Does P90X Use Weights?
So you are ready to get started with the P90X exercise program but you are wondering if P90X uses weights? The answer is you have two options. You can either use weights/dumbbells or you can use resistance bands. The choice is up to you and you will get great results with either choice. Personally I like using dumbbells and a pull up bar versus the resistance. I just feel like I get more out of the work outs when using weights. I also have people who swear by the resistance bands and say they wouldn’t have it any other way. This is a purely up to you. It is nice to have an option and this just shows the versatility of the P90X program.
You can also use the resistance bands and simulate pull ups but I like to see people use a pull up bar and use a chair as assistance if you need to. Once again this is just my preference. The key is to do what you can and use what ever tools you have available. If you have dumbbells, use them. If you have bands then use them but just get started. That is the key. Decide to get started, set a date and get going. If you have to make some minor changes along the way don’t worry about it. Just keep “Bringing It” every day and you will see some awesome results with P90X.
If you decide you want to use dumbbells and do not yet have a set I can tell you the best place to find weights at an affordable price is on craigslist. You will usually find them at about half of what you would pay in retail. I bought mine from there and you should check it out to if you are looking to save a few bucks.
So now that you know that P90X uses weight or resistance bands what are you waiting for? Buy P90X now and lets get started.
