do you have a recommendation on what is a good brand of resistance bands to use? I've been reading a lot of reviews of bands online and most that try it with P90x, they always break somehow. I need to find out a band that is durable enough for use with P90x.

A friend of mine used Bodylastics (the bands that TO endorses) and none of them broke throughout the program so you can look into those.   
 
I just use the bands I bought at Target made by Reebok. I think it was $12-$15, hasn't failed me yet.
 
Does anyone have the .pdf''s or know where I can find them?

Bodylastics is the one that broke for me, so maybe I'm in the minority on it breaking. Vcshox, I'm currently looking for a replacement and I'll let you know what I find.

Bittersweet, my gf is currently doing p90x doubles, and she's enjoying it. It mostly consists of doing a session of cardio in the morning followed by the rest of the day's activities in the afternoon. She also does the lean reps (12-16) and it works really well.

Thanks NCtwin for the heads up. I took a look at the Reebok bands RFX45 recommended, these actually look like they could hold up because they are interlocking threads of like 4 strands not a single thread like the others and its only $22 for the heaviest resistance.
 
Gonna start again today... Got through 1 month in like August and stopped while we were moving to new apartment.
 
yoga x is no *****! nor is plyo.

day 6 for me today and one thing i have noticed is ive fixed my sleep schedule. im so tired by the end of the day there's no more 3,4,5 am nights anymore.
 
started yesterday - feel a bit sore today. those 30 minutes feel like an hour when you're doing it. had to use much less weights then i would at the gym... no time to recover (which is good, you don't waste any time).
 
Ive Been doing P90x for 3 weeks now.... Week 1 is hell and it gets better after that though
 
Day 2 done. Plyo was crazy, I took constant breaks.

Is that normal? Combination of being out of shape/asthma?
 
Constant breaks during plyo is totally normal. Hell, constant breaks during the first few weeks is normal

Your body has to get used to the kind of work that you're doing. Don't worry, you'll get stronger and you'll suprise yourself at what you're able to accomplish as the weeks go by.
 
Started it today for the first time. Man I'm so sore but cant wait to get back in shape. Hopefully it's worth it. Anyone wanna suggest a good recovery drink? I would like to try the p90x drink but it's kinda expensive.
 
quick question, i live on above someone. does p90x require alot of jumping which will bother my neighbors below me?

Not really, only Plyometrics ... but he says jump softly anyway. 
 
Hmmm didn't see this thread. I made an OFFICIAL INSANITY thread myself. Does these 2 correlate in anyway?

As long as you have a mat to work on you should be good. I use an old rug
