Is P90X For Me?
by: Coach Scott Black
Many people heed the call to become healthy and order P90X directly from our infomercial or from their local Team Beachbody coach. Yet some of these people may not be ready for the program at the time they purchase it. But you can be ready in a very short time if you prepare yourself with one of our other programs such as; “Power 90”, “ChaLean Extreme”, “Insanity” and others. What Is P90X?
So here are the words to prepare you taken directly from our P90X Fitness Guide:
“If you’re unsure whether or not you are in good enough condition to take on this extreme fitness program, see the minimum suggested requirements in the Fit Test section of this guidebook. If you are unable to perform the minimum required reps for most of the exercises (or find the need to call the paramedics within minutes after popping in the first video). P90X may still be for you…but not just yet”
“P90X is an extreme fitness program designed for individuals in top physical condition and health and, therefore, should NOT be attempted by someone who does not meet the minimum fitness requirements outlined in our guidebook or by someone who has any history of health problems, including, but not limited to, heart, respiratory, knee, shoulder, or spinal (back or neck) problems. This warning must not be discounted. There many fitness alternatives if you have any physical or health conditions or are prone to injuries – but P90X is NOT one of them.”
We have created a easy to follow spreadsheet on both my blog and below in order to help you decide what program may be best for you.
