We have all heard about the amazing results of the P90X; many of the exercises in this program require the usage of resistance bands. Two of the most popular products in this category are Bodylastics and the P90X resistance bands and people often wonder which is better. So let’s analyze the answer to this question and who knows you may be taken by surprise.

Recently a client of mine was handed the pink slip and couldn’t afford to go on with the services of a personal trainer. I felt terrible about the situation because he had just started making good progress and right when he was close to achieving his fitness goals, he gets thrown out of his job. But c’est la vie.

However, he was determined to continue working on his fitness and so he promised me that he would keep up with his workout sessions on his own at home and would get in touch with me every week by phone. Recently, he received the P90X program DVD’s from a friend. He found it very impressive and could not wait to start on it. Now there are several routines in the P90X program that require the use of basic equipment devices like dumbbells, resistance bands and push bars or stands.

So when we spoke last, he had a question about the P90X bands and the Bodylastics, basically he wanted to know which would give better results.

Since I already had the Bodylastic exercise bands I went ahead and bought the P90X bands as well; these are also called the B Line Resistance Bands. I wanted to compare both products even though I was quit happy with the results that I was getting out of the Bodylastic exercise bands.

Bodylastic vs P90X Resistance Bands

The most conspicuous difference between these two products is the ability to attach up to 7 bands to a single handle with Bodylastics, so in essence the product not only works as a resistance band but also as an adjustable dumbbell.

The second factor that sets these two products apart is the life time warranty that the manufacturers of Bodylastic resistance bands offer on their product. On the other hand, the P90X does not come with any warranty; there was certainly no mention of a warranty on the product packaging or their website. So essentially, owning the Bodylastic resistance band is practically risk free. If anything happens to the equipment even after you have used it consistently for years you can simply send the product back to the manufacturers and they will repair it for you at no cost at all.

The cost of a basic B line Resistance band kit complete with 2 sets of handles and 3 bands is a little less than $40 which is a bargain price considering the amazing benefits that you can get from this product.

As compared to this, the Bodylastic basic level tension system is slightly more expensive at $46 but you also get more workout potential with 2 handles and 4 bands, a door anchor and a set of ankle straps. So you will be able to do exercises like the LAT pull down machine with this product. Bodylastics is so useful that you can perform nearly 140 exercises with this product.

Apart from these, you also get a video on circuit training and an annual membership of video training center when you buy Bodylastic bands. So even though you will end up paying about $4 to $6 more for Bdylastics, the additional tools are well worth the price and make this product better than the P90X resistance bands.

Another advantage of buying the Bodylastic resistance bands is the 60 day money back guarantee that you get on this product as opposed to the 30 day money back guarantee offered on the P90X bands. However, this also means that you can try both these products risk free and choose the one that best suits your requirements.
