P90X- What you need to have for the best results.
Before you run to the phone to order P90X or order it from your coach there are a few things you should know and there are a few things you need to have if you are going to see dramatic results with P90X.
What are the things you need?
– You obviously will need to purchase the whole P90X system including the nutrition plan and the work out guide. For about $120 you get the whole thing. Beware of the pirated or bootlegged copies that are out there. They are usually of a poor quality and often do not come with the nutrition plan or work out guide. Just so you know, if you do not have the work out guide you will not know the order of the workouts.
– Very Important! You will need a strong will and you need be determined to do the work outs and follow the nutrition plan for the full 90 days. You want awesome results right? Then this is the best way to get them. Your workouts will be a minimum of 1 hour and a maximum of 1-½ hours usually 1 day a week.
– You will need resistance bands or a set of dumbbells. Personally I used a set of dumbbells but if you choose to go with resistance bands I have seen people still have great results.
– You will need a pull up bar. Beachbody makes one that can go above your door and is not mounted permanently. It supports up to 300lbs and you can do 7+ variations of pull-ups. You can also build your own or there are other makes and models out there.
– You will need a TV, a DVD player and some space to do your workouts. You do not need much room so if you are in an apartment you will have plenty of room.
– A comfortable set of tennis shoes and some workout attire.
– The right nutrition. P90X comes with a P90X nutrition guide so you will be able to see what kinds of foods you will be eating and what you will need when you take your trip to the grocery store.
– Optional items: These items will help but are not mandatory. P90X recovery drink, energy bar or P90X protein bar, protein shake and a multi-vitamin. Remember, you will be draining your body so you will need to put those nutrients back in.
