They offer an "alternate" exercise for all the pull up exercises. You do need some of those resistance bands though if you want to do the alternate exercises. The "tube" style ones are better, the flat "sheetlike" ones are harder to hold onto etc. The exercises using a chin up bar will instead require the band and you pull the band in a similar manner you would do a chin up. I cant do a chin up, so I went with bands first. I figured 15 reps with the band was a lot better than 1 chin up.. HAHA.. Also you need somewhere to "anchor" the bands. I have an hook anchored into a 2X4, it works for me. However I have seen some of the tubing comes with a door attachment that may workout a lil better. <br /><br />Now on other exercises, you can use free weights or the bands. I don't think there are any exercises where you HAVE to use the free weights only. All seem to have one of the guys on bands to show you how to do that. I ended up ordering a 5 band assortment off amazon.. <br /><br />I hope this works.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YQN802/ref=oss_product<br /><br />Also the chin up bar etc all of it is cheaper on amazon, ebay, etc. I rarely buy them in the stores...Lynzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978007593563642465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8385381067995601283.post-24118662933457932992010-05-13T10:48:43.559-04:002010-05-13T10:48:43.559-04:00Let me know what you think of the p90x...
