I will definitely give this a try once I get to the states in a couple of weeks...it would help supplement my other cardio workout (Adult Soccer league)...

I'm in the middle of my 5th week and this program does indeed work and I would recommend it to anyone. I am getting my 6-pack back already, and only about 1/3 of the way through. Good stuff but it takes some real dedication with the 1-1.5 hour workouts 6-7 days a week!

These vids are all over youtube and aren't tied with P90X. I believe they call it ghetto gym or something like that. Just vids of these guys doing insane stuff on childrens playgrounds or bus stops etc.

The day after I tried P90X, I couldn't stand up straight because my body was so sore, LOL

I gotta get back to it though, definitely will get you in shape.

yes you can replicate it
and he even shows you how to.
However you don't replicate it because you can't do a pull up, you replicate it because you just don't have the bar
It shouldn't be easier is all I'm saying

How is using a rubber band which has maybe 40lbs of resistance not going to be easier than lifting your entire body weight? The pullup is one of the best exercises one can do but, when done properly, is extremely hard for most people. Maybe I'm not following you.

The ab ripper disabled me for a whole week. I couldn't stand up straight after sitting down for a while.

What's your definition of in shape? lol not to be rude..
IMO, being in shape is the end result of P90X

As someone else said, CrossFit>P90X.

I'd rather train for function and end up looking great, than train to look great and not have function.

That's nutz 1.5 hrs 6 day's a week. That is some dedication. I go to the gym 30 minutes 3-5 days on a good week. The gym does get boring though.

Sounds like you are not familiar with bit torrent. First, you need a torrent client installed on your computer. I use Bitcomet, but others here might recommend you some other client. Then, search "P90X torrent" on google which should bring you to some torrent sites. I usually go directly to extratorrent.com or demonoid.com to search for torrent files.
