Tom, I think the 90X is just double what the P90 does. Do you go for an hour or 1/2 hour? On most days they will go through the excercises and then do them all again. I do ok on the first half hour but it gets real sloppy on the last half. Ya sometimes I just lay there like a slug.

It gets worse, they have a program now called Insanity, where you are supposed to get ripped in 60 days. No old guys in those ads.


P90X is totally different than Power 90. You will see Tony doing some similar techniques and exercises with the weightlifting stuff, but other than that it's a different program.

Power 90 is broken down into two segements "sculpt" and "sweat" - basically lifting/resistance and cardio. I think it came with a diet plan, but I didn't get it since I bought some DVDs used. Videos are shorter, around a half an hour each.

P90x has about 10 different videos...half are different muscle groups of strength training, the others are cardio, plyometrics, kempo, power yoga, stretching, and maybe one more. It also has the comprehensive eating plan. Videos range from around 50 minutes to an hour and a half.

I have never done Insanity. From what I have read, Insanity is just a killer cardio and core workout for an extended period of time. It doesn't focus on weightlifting at all. If your only goal is to lose weight and get some definition but not real upper body strength, this would be good, although hard.

As with anything, you get out what you put in. I vary my workout plans all the time. I'm feeling (and looking) better now than ever, so I guess it says something. Let me know if you have any questions.
