Dumbells vs. Bands

Wondering if you should use bands or dumbbells for P90x? I would highly encourage dumbbells. Many of the moves are very awkward using the bands. In addition, it’s hard to maintain the exact same tension from week to week and thus hard to gauge your progress – the bands change tension depending on where you step on them. May I suggest you check out the Bowflex SelectTech 552 dumbbells. You can usually pick them up on Ebay for a little over $300. I know it’s pricey, but remember that you can easily resell them if you need to – much more marketable than plates. Plus they are so convenient. Just my 2 cents…
