Review: I like it better than T25. Different than P90X - I've done P90X and Insanity, P90X2, T25 and now P90X3. I am not a super-fit beach body. I'm just a middle aged person trying to keep some semblance of shape while living the domestic life. I started with P90X, which was fantastic, but just took a lot of commitment to do it right. After a few years, I tried Insanity, which was a nice change of pace. But Insanity gets a bit boring, and was actually too hard for me to stay consistent with it. I still have both Insanity and P90X, and assume I'll go back to them again at some point. Meanwhile, I tried P90X2, but didn't like it. It was like P90X, but on one foot. It was pretty much the same exercises as P90X, but augmented with what I felt were dumb moves for me -- like push-ups on medicine balls (IIRC) or curls on one foot. I sold that quickly. Then I had some medical issues for 6 months and fell out of shape. When I was back on my feet, I tried T25, because it seemed like a commitment I could keep (30 minutes). Instead, I injured myself because I didn't concentrate on form. T25 is practically all plyo. I sold T25, and would not recommend it at all. Then I tried Mr. Horton again. Ah, P90X3. Three weeks into it, and I love it. These initial comments are based on getting through the first 3 weeks ****** First, the negatives: * Sometimes Tony talks too much, and forgets to tell you when to switch to the next side or move. Hey Tony: I'm on the floor doing a move. I can't see you on the screen! I need you to tell me when to switch. * Tony talks too much about how you can get a workout in 30 minutes. Too many references to wasting your time on the elliptical in the gym. OK. We get it. * Sometimes I feel like 30 minutes on some of the workouts isn't enough though others feel pretty complete. But you can always repeat if you have the energy and the time. * Because they are moving fast, you don't get as much coaching on certain exercises or positions. For instance, Tony had tons of pointers on doing Yoga on P90X, and most of those tips are missing here on P90X3. Luckily, I heard them on P90X, so I use them here (like, "take your weight off your pinkies, and put it on your index fingers and thumbs, which straightens your arms" while in downward dog, etc.) * I wish they gave us electronic downloads. Mobile Devices are the future BeachBody! Pros: * Tony's bad jokes (hey, I like them!) * Do-able time span * Great variety of exercises * If you need more workouts, do another one, or double up the one you just did. Problem solved, and no guilt quitting 1/2 through an hour workout that you didn't have time for. * STRETCHING! Out of all the programs I've tried, this is the first one where I feel like I'm adequately stretched. After three weeks, my hamstrings are now LOOSER whereas on all the other ones, my hammies got tighter. And Saun T is the WORST -- he never really stretches on his videos, IMO. These P90X3 workouts incorporate core and stretching right into the workout. The set also includes a disk routine "Cold Start." Cold Start is a 12 minute warm-up you can use before any exercise. I found it's very good for us road warriors. Let's say you are traveling, and you have no time to work out before your morning meetings. Cold Start is a very nice limber-up routine. I've used it several times now, and it really gets you going. Keep this one on your iPad, or laptop or something for anytime/anywhere. It's more effective than early coffee, and better for you! ***UPDATE I'm through 8 weeks now, and I still love it. I've been able to stick with it. Sometimes I miss one because I'm busy, but can make it up the next day. Out of P90X, P90X2, P90X3, Insanity and T25, this is the only one I can follow without falling behind and feeling guilty. I've managed to not miss a single one (as long as you count doing a double the next day as a legit catch-up). One knock might be if you ONLY do P90X3, then you end up missing a bit of aerobic, but I am absolutely more flexible, stronger, tighter core, and more explosive legs. I played tennis tonight for the first time in a few years, and I was moving around the court very well. Much better than I used to. Early on, I got some knee cap pain, so I had to force myself to slow down a bit, and pay attention to form, and keep from going out over my toes in squats/lunges. I have to remind myself not to rush lunges and squats. Form over reps. My biggest Achilles heel continues to be diet. I've got the strength and flexibility, but haven't lost the weight I could have lost if I ate better (I have lost 8 pounds, but I really should have lost 15-20). I think after this "classic" round I might force myself to try one of the other schedules, and get better with the diet. ***Second Update I'm now in my third month, though due to some road travel for 2 weeks, I fell out of the strength routines, because I couldn't get a chin-up or weights with me, and I didn't work with the bands. What I did do, though, was download 6 routines to my PC that I could do in my hotel room, and I considered it two "stasis weeks." Every morning on the road was 12 minute cold start, then 30 minute aerobic/stretching video (stuff like Yoga, warrior, isometrix, etc.). I felt like I kept up pretty well, and now that I'm back home, I'm headed back into the program for month #3. After 3 months, I still think this is the best short-time-commitment program I've tried to date, and I hope BeachBody continues to provide new and interesting programs with this kind of format. LOVE IT! ***ONE CAVEAT and last update*** After running with this program all the way through, I found I ended up with some imbalances in muscle tone and stretching. My hams, quads, biceps, chest, etc. are larger and more flexible, but I'm finding I over-developed my chest a bit, and also didn't stretch my neck enough with this program. I went on-line and googled some helps in these areas, and found some moves that I've supplemented with. This is, of course, all very personal and YMMV. I am not a trainer. Just recounting my personal experience, and this is just one person's experience. You'll need to feel it out for yourself. Good luck! Review: Update - Update 4/16 I have now completed the Lean Circuit and am three days into the classic circuit. Down below is my original review and by and large, my thoughts have not changed. Independent of comparison to T25, I am very pleased with the results that I achieved over the course of this program. By about the half way point, I had dropped five lbs, lost two inches of waist size, and this really didn't change through the remainder of the program. What continued to change, however, was the muscle definition. I still have a little ball of floppy gut right at the belly button, but it has dropped substantially in size and for the first time in probably 15 years or so, I am seeing an outline of abdominal muscles develop. Not surprisingly, I didn't really add any mass in terms of muscle size, but considering that the goal of this cycle was to get more lean, I'd say that my results were right on target. After I finish the classic cycle, I will update again. Prior to X3, I did a full round of T25 and Gamma, and then I think I did a month of hybrid. Because of that, it's hard for me to really say if this is ideal for beginners because I had a head start in getting back in shape. Still, in comparison to T25, I think this program is a better place start for getting back into working out, especially if your cardio is not that good. I also still believe it is a much better full body workout than T25, but T25 is hands down a much better cardio program, in my opinion. Admittedly, I really didn't like T25 and when I started this, it was an immediate contrast and I started to get motivated again. Through once cycle of X30, the rotation of the discs has been good and though I've done every workout at least once, I am not bored and I think that is another strength of this program. As for the nutrition, well, I honestly have not altered my diet all that much. I was already a vegetarian, and with few exceptions, such as pizza, I try to eat something close to a Vegan diet. I won't eat anything with high fructose syrup (including breads) and trying to be vegan helps cut down on the sweets I used to pound through. I tried to follow the diet at first, but it got to be kind of hard to keep planning all my meals with the book while working and being in grad school. With that in mind, I'm very happy with the results with not really changing my diet all that much. If I could limit myself to pizza twice a month, I'm pretty sure I'd have ripped abs by now. Overall, this program is perfect for someone like me who is busy, doesn't have time or desire to go the gym or some cross fit place who also loves that this program is pre-planned. I get up, look at what workout is due that day, do it, and get on with my day. After I complete the classic routine, I will probably try a round of doubles which I realize defeats the purpose of the 30 minute routine. For 90 days, I feel I've more than gotten my money's worth out of this set and if I'm not bored after the classic cycle and can make through doubles, I will probably move on to P90X2. 2/23 Eventually, I plan to come back and do a better review, but for now, I am very happy with the program. Prior to this, I did T25, all the way through gamma, and was simply not satisfied with that program. But, I'm not here to bitch about that and it did set me up for P90x3. Right now, I am starting week 8 of the lean program. So far, I have dropped close to five pounds and have dropped two pants sizes. I have also gained definition in every muscle group. Compared to T25, I feel like I am getting a complete work out and that I am working all muscle groups instead of just pounding a select few groups day after day. I like the variety, I like the calorie burn I get for the half hour of work and I like the way the results look. I don't know that I'm going to get all the way to ripped abs that I'm looking for, at least not on just one pass, but at 8 weeks, I've gotten better results than I had expected. For you super workout types who have done 3 rounds of five different beach body programs, common sense should tell you that you aren't going to maintain those results doing a half hour workout. For the rest of us mortals, I think this is an incredibly good workout that you can probably use for a long time. But the end of gamma in T25, I was flat out bored with the program. Not all of X3's workouts grab my attention for the full thirty, but the program and the rotations so far have kept me from getting bored with it. After the lean, I plan to go to classic and then doubles. I should get just about a year out of this before I will be looking for something else. If you are in horrible shape, not many of these programs are really good for you. But, I think this program could be a really good starting point for a lot of people. Just my .02 anyway. ## Features - With P90X3, you get a whole workout in just 30 minutes - Includes 16 extreme 30-minute workouts, Fitness Guide, Nutrition Plan, Workout Calendar, "How to Accelerate" DVD, and 24/7 Online Support - Tony Horton's breakthrough Muscle Acceleration system maximizes that all-important window of opportunity to help you get ripped in 30 minutes a day - Studies show that the most dramatic body transformations happen in the first 30 minutes of exercise - With P90X3, you don't get off easy, you just get finished faster ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 10.87 x 7.4 x 4.49 inches | | Package Weight | 0.92 Kilograms | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 11.02 x 7.09 x 3.15 inches | | Brand Name | Beachbody | | Color | PC-25 | | Material | Plastic | | Manufacturer | Beachbody Inc., | | Part Number | B00GSBMW2Y | | Model Year | 2016 | | Size | PC-25 | ## Images ![Tony Horton's P90X3 Base Kit - DVD Workout - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Sjy2l0KZL.jpg) ![Tony Horton's P90X3 Base Kit - DVD Workout - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LZBHAchGL.jpg) ![Tony Horton's P90X3 Base Kit - DVD Workout - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61h-NF99zDL.jpg) ![Tony Horton's P90X3 Base Kit - DVD Workout - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qR-fbzSCL.jpg) ![Tony Horton's P90X3 Base Kit - DVD Workout - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IUUJICe3L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like it better than T25.

Bottom Line: Very much like P90X2 but shorter, quicker workouts. For those who haven't tried P90X2, these workouts are about taking traditional exercises and putting twists on them to encourage strengthening your core and improving balance and agility. There's a lot of focus on synergistics, or muscle groups working together, rather than the "today we're working biceps" approach. This isn't about getting huge muscles it's about getting "ripped" or toned and chiseled muscles. Scroll to bottom for quick pros/cons comparison. Who this is for: All ages. Beginners and out-of-shape encouraged. Athletes and fitness junkies may find this is a nice change of pace from routine and fills in the cracks of your training regime but it will border on the easy side. At least compared to more dedicated HIIT (High-intensity interval training) workouts. I've only done Phase 1 so far, but I will update as the days go by if this still appears to be true. So far my results are not as great as P90X3 seemed to promise, and I've been following the program and carefully monitoring my diet. Y Background: I own several other Beachbody programs including P90X, P90X2, Insanity, Asylum, and Body Beast. I personally prefer weight lifting and consequently my favorite programs are P90X1 and Body Beast for their high usage of standard dumbbell exercises. I struggled with P90X2 probably because my agility, balance, and core are horribly neglected. But despite my weight-lifting bias, I acknowledge that this program carries a lot of value for those who need to ease into a workout regime. Great for beginners. My Opinion: Again, feels A LOT like P90X2. Balance moves, core moves, moving your legs and arms during push-ups and pull-ups and standing on one foot while doing dumbbell moves. Compared to Insanity or Asylum with Shaun-T, this is a large step down in intensity. I did Agility X which is arguably a HIIT workout, but Shaun-T doesn't give you a moment to catch your breath, Tony will in this. I push myself and am always sweating by the end of the 30 minutes, but the workouts are pretty tame and for me leave a lot to be desired. Like P90X2, the moves may take you some time to learn. Instead of a standard lunge or squat or push-up there's always some twist to make the move incorporate more muscle groups. You may wonder if 30 minutes is enough time since it is less intense than other HIIT workouts... with P90X3 it largely depends on how much you push yourself. In contrast, something like Insanity or Asylum will leave you dead and vomiting on the floor even if you try to modify. The key difference is that P90X3 was designed to be for all levels especially the beginner, whereas Shaun-T's HIITs are designed for the already athletic ready for a challenge. P90X3 also includes a huge variety to introduce people different kinds of exercise which is an impressive feat. Yoga, Pilates, MMA, and modern muscle-training techniques. I must admit that I never would have tried Yoga before P90X. Likewise, I DEFINITELY never would have tried Pilates before P90X3... but Tony insisted and it is actually a fantastic core/ab workout just as good as old Ab Ripper. Each workout honors that 30 minute mark. This 30 minutes includes a 3 minute warm-up at the beginning but does NOT include a several minute cool-down after the workout ends. If time is an important issue to you then this program may be just what the doctor ordered. 90 days is a long time to stay true to a workout program and if you want results you need to stay consistent. 60-90 minute workouts can be time prohibitive some days, and missing several days or even one day can be discouraging to your personal track record and cause you to stop. 30 minutes is mentally very enabling and much easier to squeeze into a busy day to avoid missing. Note: each DVD includes an optional extended 12 minute warm-up called "Cold Start." I workout in the early morning and I've found this is not at all necessary. The 3-minute included warm-ups are completely sufficient. One big aspect with this program is that you aren't targeting just a few muscle groups like you would see in P90X1 or Body Beast. The focus is on activating entire muscle groups, and as a result you will become much more functionally fit as opposed to Arnold bulky. And you will discover how weak your core is! This iteration doesn't include an Ab Ripper, you have to buy that as a bonus separate. But with how much you use your core and abdominal muscles I can see how it would be superfluous to add on a post-ab workout anyway. Pilates X is basically Ab Ripper 3. Pros: - 30 minute timer consistent for every workout - Serious core and balance work with new and interesting moves - Every move has variations from Beginner --> Expert mode - LOW equipment requirements - just need dumbbells (or bands), pull-up bar, yoga/jump mat, and optionally a medicine ball - Tony's humor is better than it was in P90X2. I loved his humor/positive can-do attitude in P90X1; very quotable. In P90X2 he was a pretty annoying to me. In P90X3 he can occasionally make me laugh out loud again. Cons - Nutrition plan is very lacking! Does not have calorie breakdowns or even recipes! Seems to be more about educating you about the principles of eating right (which isn't necessarily bad) than actually giving you a "diet plan." But for how important diet is in the health/fitness equation it was grossly neglected in P90X3! - Low weights utilization which leaves something to be desired those of us interested in mass/size. I'd HIGHLY recommend Body Beast if this is you. - As of yet the iPhone app for tracking and scheduling is STILL NOT available. Promised to be released soon...? - I haven't figured out the pacing yet. While Tony doesn't explain any moves beforehand, he does give adequate instruction during the exercise. But the time between exercises seems a little loose. I would have preferred if he used the between-exercise time to explain the next move rather than shoot the breeze/broad tips. Maybe this won't matter once I'm familiar with the moves. - Too easy. Tony doesn't motivate you to push like he did in P90X1. Maybe this is just Phase 1, and I will update after Phase 2 if this changes. Please feel free to ask questions about things I haven't covered yet. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/257026-tony-hortons-p90x3-base-kit-dvd-workout](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/257026-tony-hortons-p90x3-base-kit-dvd-workout) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-11*
