Is anyone using P90X? What's your opinion on it? Is it worth the money or waste of time?

Worth it if you stick with it. A tough work out.

I've got all the DVD files for it on my desktop. If you get me a thumb drive I can put them on it if you'd like. The manuals, diet book, etc., are also on a file if you need to view or print them out. Think you can get it on eBay for around $50 to $80.

Melanie and I have tried to get through the program several times, but we usually quit following the prgram around week 6 or 7. It's just hard to be disciplined enough to work out 6 days a week for at least 1 hr a day. The workouts are pretty challenging though and you'll definitely see a difference if you push yourself on the workouts (weights/reps) and see the whole program through.

buy used or get copies from NoName2. It is a serious commitment to time. The program runs 6 days a week for the 90 days. The first time I did the Chest and Back workout it hurt to raise my arms for the next 3 days. Most of the workouts take about 1:15 to complete with the exception of Yoga which is 1:30. If you stick with the program it will work. The following is the Chest and Back workout
7 minute warm-up
Standard Push-ups
Wide Front Pull-ups
Military Push-ups
Reverse Grip Pull-ups
Wide Fly Push-ups
Close grip overhand pull-ups
Decline Push-ups
Heavy Pants (weights)
Diamond Push-ups
Lawnmowers (weights)
Dive Bomber Push-ups
2 position Back Flys (weights)

You do 4 exercises and take a one minute break, then do the next 4, etc after you finish them all you repeat the exercises.

2 minute cool down and follow with Ab RipperX
