What is P90x?

P90X is a revolutionary system of 12 fitness home workouts designed to transform your body from regular to ripped in just 90 days.

The P90x Fit Test

P90X has a fitness test that they ask you to complete before you embark on the program. The test is used so you can chart your progress, and to make sure you are able to complete a P90X Workout. The P90X Fit Test takes approximately 40 minutes to complete, and all tests should be completed in the order listed below. As they will ask you will repeat this Fit Test when you complete the P90X, it is important that you are able to do it the same way, in the same order.

Equipment Required

Heart rate monitor
body fat caliper
tape measure
scale
pull-up bar (securely installed)
timer (stopwatch or watch with second hand)
