Buying the products you'll need.

• 2). Purchase the food that the meal plans requires from your local grocery store. It is important that you start the meal plan as you being the workout in order to achieve the best results possible.
  
  
• 3). Go to a sporting goods store. Here you will buy a pull-up bar and either dumbbells or a set of resistance bands.
  
  

Setting up and planning

• 1). Choose the room that you will be performing your workouts in. The room will need either a television or computer that can play DVDs. The room will also need enough room for you to move around freely while working out. Finally, there needs to be either a strong beam or door frame to support the pull-up bar.
  
  
• 2). Set up a schedule for yourself. In this schedule, you should devote about one hour a day to perform the P90X workout.
  
  
• 3). Weigh yourself and take a picture. You can use these for a reference and to chart your progress as you go along in the program.
