My Beef with P90X
First off, let me tell you this: I love P90X. I thinks it’s great if you want to lose 30 pounds, or any weight, for that matter. It has an all-around, excellent approach to weight loss and physical fitness. I especially love the chest and back workout – I think it kicks ass. And Plyometrics? Whew! That’ll empty your gas tank real fast.
Minimal equipment is required. I have a set of 25 lbs. dumb bells and the Iron Gym pull-up bar. It’s the kind of pull-up bar that is easy to set up and take down (actually, I just usually leave it up). What’s even better is that it isn’t screwed into the door frame; it simply fits snugly against it. That’s it – no more equipment.
And the diet plan is awesome. It spells out how much you should be eating at any specific point in the program. The menus focus on delicious, practical dishes, many of which can be whipped up quickly and easily. It’s all about portion control, and tells you what equals what kind of portion size, and what qualifies as a helathy portion.
So what’s the deal? Why does it bother me? Easy. Even though I know that fat loss comes mostly from a reduced calorie/better choices diet, with a good exercise plan to back it up, I can sometimes still fall for the hype. I’ve seen all of the these commercials for P90X – about how it’s hard work, and hard work pays off, and all these exercise that can be done at home, exercises with minimal equipment, with the cool-looking models that all seem pretty fit, or these actual P90Xers performing the seemingly easy-to-perform moves. Oh, and a quick mention of their diet plan.
There it is, the diet plan. Well, when it comes to willpower and food, I have very little – willpower, that is. I wanted to lose 30 pounds, so I ordered the set (over $100), got the box, opened it up, and what’s the first thing I realize with this program? Yeah, I have to stick to their diet plan to see any real results. They even tell you that in their pamphlets. You can work out as much as you want, as hard as you want, but you’re gonna have to buckle up and eat X amount of food every day.
Oops, I, did it again, I fell for the hype, got lost in the game…
So there you have it. If you want to lose 30 pounds and get a ripped bod using P90X, you’re gonna have to work twice as hard due to the strict diet. If you’re thinking of going that route, just remember that the exercise alone is not going to get you there, even though you might think that from watching their commercial.
I’ve been using P90X for a little bit, and I have to say it’s awesome. I’ve never gotten a better workout. It’s perfect if you want to lose 30 pounds, just remember that “it” isn’t doing the work; you are. The P90X Peak Results package is, I’m sure, worth it, but I’m doing great with the cheaper Home Fitness Program.

There are a ridiculous amount of diet scams on the market, some of which are dangerous.If you want to lose weight without changing your diet, if that is even possible for some people, you will need to exercise 2,3,4X as hard to burn the calories!
After sifting through all these P90X reviews, I was able to get an idea of the answer to the big question: does p90x work? Everything points to the fact that yes, the p90x does work and in fact the P90X does work quite well.
If you believe you can lose weight while not dieting properly then you’re a fool! It’s funny when people exercise and eat McDonalds and wonder why they are not losing weight.
There is no magic program or exercise that will give you weight loss, its hard work no matter how you do it. Whether its a program off TV or from your personal trainer, weight loss = more energy expended than consumed. So if you want to lose weight without changing your diet, if that is even possible for some people, you will need to exercise 2,3,4X as hard to burn the calories!
It is true that every dieting product on the market makes everything sound easier than it actually is. But hey as long as it works then all is good! There are a ridiculous amount of diet scams on the market, some of which are dangerous. The hype and the annoyance that comes with it is understandable but then again as long as the plan works and doesn’t cost your health then its probably worth it

Yeah, unfortunately it is the same for all exercise programs. In fact we know that quite well. So why do we still order such things in the hope of doing a little workout and that’s it to loose weight? We know better and still believe in the ads. Why?
But that’s the way it is for all exercise programs and especially true of the abdominal exercise equipment that’s advertised on TV infomercials- ‘results guaranteed’ as long as you follow the reduced calorie diet they outline for you. The print is small, tiny actually, but that’s the only way you can truly lose pounds and inches- eating less while you train hard.
The truth hurts, damn it.
