I'm about to start P90x and I need to know which resistance bands I should get?
Apr 07, 2010 by Mad Dawg | Posted in Diet & Fitness
Anyway, looking through the BeachBody website gearing up for P90x, I'm trying to figure out which weighted resistance bands I should get. With dumbbells, I can bench press a max of 45 lbs. Does this mean I should get the extreme set as linked here: http://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness _gear/p90x_gear/extreme_kit.do OR should I aim to get lower resistance bands? What would you guys recommend?
I weigh 145pounds, and 5'7
p90x gets great reviews, check them out:

You'll also want some adjustable dumbbells to go along with the program (don't forget the chin-up bar):

Alternatively you can buy individual dumbbells, which is my personal preference. I like rubber coated HEX dumbbells the best:

You'll want this p90x chin/pull up bar (that's door mounted, you might want to search for wall mounted):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ARN RRK?ie=UTF8&tag=zv11ex-20&linkCo de=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957 &creativeASIN=B001ARNRRK
or a 'tower':
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i e=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ama zon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3 Dnb%5Fsb%5Fnoss%26y%3D0%26field-keywords %3Dpull%2520up%2520tower%26url%3Dsearch- alias%253Daps&tag=clogui-20&link Code=ur2&camp=1789&creative=3909 57
You might also want to get pushup bars, I personally use this:

although it's pricey compared to others, so any of these will work fine:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i e=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ama zon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref%25 5F%3Dnb%255Fss%255Fgw%26y%3D0%26field-ke ywords%3Dpushup%2520bar%26url%3Dsearch-a lias%253Daps&tag=clogui-20&linkC ode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=39095 7
I also suggest resistance bands, I suggest ripcords brand as they don't break on you (I had to go to the emergency room once because I was using bad ones from a gym, and it snapped and nearly broke my hand by slinging itself):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i e=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ama zon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref%25 5F%3Dnb%255Fss%255Fgw%26y%3D0%26field-ke ywords%3Dripcords%26url%3Dsearch-alias%2 53Daps&tag=clogui-20&linkCode=ur 2&camp=1789&creative=390957
Get the 5 set or 6 set (don't get it with the DVD).
And lastly, you should have a good recovery drink. I prefer this one myself over the p90x specific one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001FS X08?ie=UTF8&tag=clogui-20&linkCo de=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957 &creativeASIN=B0001FSX08
ps, if you don't want to put on too much muscle, use light weights (I suggest getting all 5 sets):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i e=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ama zon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref%25 5F%3Dnb%255Fss%255Fgw%26y%3D0%26field-ke ywords%3Dvaleo%2520weights%26url%3Dsearc h-alias%253Daps&tag=clogui-20&li nkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=39 0957

The All Blacks head into their World Cup semifinal with New Zealand's most criticised Super Rugby backline holding the hopes of the nation.
The Hurricanes will provide at least five, possibly six of the seven backs to line up against the Wallabies.
