Question by This gum is fancy: If I use resistance bands instead of a pull up bar for the P90X, will I still get good results on my arms?
I saw that on the routines that require, they show that you can use resistance bands instead of a pull up bar. So does that mean I don’t need a pull up bar if I have these resistance bands?

Best answer:

Answer by Brad J
I currently am using the bands with the program. You will need to use bands and some sort of bar. One option is buying the pull up bar that attaches to a door frame. Another option is purchasing the attachment for the bands to go on the door. The bar is probably going to cost you about 45.00 where as the attachment for the bands is probably 10.00. Either option is good but getting the bar is probably better.

As far as results on your arms, I think the bands will work just fine. I have been using the bands and I am seeing great results. The only downfall is that I use the heaviest resistance and can still get 14-16 reps on some exercises. Therefore I am getting pretty cut in my arms but not building alot of size. Reps of 6-8 would give me more size.

Hope this helps

Question by strohjojo: How long should it take to loose 60 pounds?
I’m 13 5’8 at 210 pounds. I would like to be 150 soon. I’ve checked that I need to consume 1800 calories a day. I have a treadmill, bosu ball, weights, and resistance bands to work out with. During the summer I also have a pool in my backyard.

You should be targeting 2-3 pounds a week. From that, the math is kinda easy, no?

Question by CAMiESHA J: What type of Resistance/Kinetic Bands are needed to build fast twitch muscle fibers?
I am a Track Runner/Sprinter. I was wondering what kind of resistance bands would I need to help trigger/build my fast twitch muscle fibers. I have seen two different types of bands and I am not sure which type to invest in. Also, if there are any workouts that would help build fast twitch muscle fibers, hip-flexors, could you please list them for me? Thanks, for all of your help ;=)

Question by Ryan: What workout routine should I do if I am really tall and skinny?
I am in my teens and and really tall and thin (really thin, I can’t gain weight, but I can loose it super fast). I want to gain muscle so I don’t look weak. I don’t know what where to start. I have all the equipment I need in my basement as my mom is a workout fanatic (universal gym, dumbbells, bosu ball, regular ball, mats, elliptical trainer, etc.) So what should I do?

Best answer:

Answer by M G
It really depends on what you want to do. If you want to work on your cardiovascular system some while gaining muscle, I would look into running, elliptical, or some video program. If you really just wanna build muscle go for weight lifting.

A good mix of weight lifting and cardio is probably best though. Jog a few days and weight lift/strength train others.

Sparkpeople.com has some good strength training exercises.
