Often I am asked about the best workout program For example women over 40 ask me if they are too old for P90X and should they do Slim in 6 instead? For me the answer lies not in age but in ability.

P90X is an intense bootcamp style workout with some weights used and it’s designed to get you into the best shape possible. I like P90X a lot and it was the first Beachbody program I used. I got great results from it. Now I’ll also admit that I was probably somewhat marginal to go forward with it. My physical conditioning was weak (I was mostly walking before I started), I was overweight, over 50 and had some old injuries. But I have been quite fit before so that was the reason I felt I could move forward with P90X even though I had to modify the workout at first.

Slim in 6 is a good overall program that has a bit less intensity than P90X. As such it is a great workout for women over 40 who are really out of shape and want a program that can produce big results but not overwhelm them.
