Resistance Bands or Pull Up Bar with P90X?

March 9, 2014 By Coach Bob

P90X Resistance Bands

It’s a question I often get when someone starts their new P90X, P90X2, or P90X3 journey. Can I use resistance bands instead of Dumbbells or Resistance bands and STILL get good results? Or, are resistance bands considered an “easy way out”? Today I’ll answer both of those questions!

Resistance Bands – Are they as Good as the Pull Up Bar or Dumbbells?

Whether you don’t have the proper door frame for a pull up bar, or you travel and dumbbells just don’t fit right in the suitcase. Can resistance bands honestly work well? Check out my video below for the details and how you can avoid a mistake if you choose resistance bands:

How to Get Resistance Bands to Work well with P90X Workouts

The key, as I mention in the above video, is to balance the right intensity!

What does this mean?

If you want to get amazing results with resistance bands (and you absolutely can get great results), don’t settle for the cheap or lighter resistance bands! The goal with any workout is to push yourself to a point where you are working hard. If you are comfortable with a workout, are you really changing your body? Are you challenging your muscles to improve and grow?

With that in mind, make sure you get the right type of resistance bands. You can get them here on the site which varying levels of resistances (meaning they can perform well at 10, 15, 25, even 50 pounds of resistance.

I hope you found some good value out of today’s post on P90X Resistance Bands vs Pull Up Bars or Dumbbells. If you did, please share it with your favorite social media site to help me promote Sweet Life Fitness to others who are aiming to live a healthy more fulfilling life.

Yours in Fitness Success,

Coach Bob
