Joe I need rep points!
Default P90x infomercial

Not sure how many of you have seen the P90x.com infomercial

99.9% of anything that is an informercial can be a waste of money.
I took a look at this system and for $120 it seems like a decent investment.

Here is the reason why I like this program - for the person who works out at home alone, there is much less motivation or drive then the person who works out with a buddy or at a gym with a personal trainer. There is nobody there to push you through those last few reps, that last set when your muscles are screaming.

You can access hundreds of workouts and diet plans online, but there is still nobody there to move you that one step further.

It appears to give the basic workouts and mixes them up a bit so you don't get into the rut so many people do.

You need dumbells, a chin up bar and a drive to improve your way of life

I'm not affiliated with the program in any way - I just wanted to post it up here for those who haven't seen it yet.

website: www.p90x.com

Has anyone here used this program?

For $40.00 why not give it a shot? I too have no one to push me (no training partner) when in the gym, so I understand how it's hard for you to push yourself. It's easier to get pushed, then it is to push yourself.

It's $120 ($140 shipped). Even so, that is three sessions with a personal trainer. Still not a bad deal IMO.

I agree. Most personal trainers are $50+ an hour. So just the sessions alone would cost you $150.00 for 3. So yeah...give it a shot.
