P90X Fitness Test

The P90X workout program has a fitness test, which you take on day 0 before you begin the program and again on day 91 when you complete the program. I can tell you that I have made some accomplishments in the fit test.

HEART RATE MAXIMIZER
For this test, you do jumping jacks as hard and fast as you can for two minutes. Then you check your heart rate every minute. Here are the results:

Heartrate after completion
08/08/09 169bpm
11/08/09 142bpm

After one minute
08/08/09 111bpm
11/08/09 98bpm

After two minutes
08/08/09 92bpm
11/08/09 88bpm

After three minutes
08/08/09 85bpm
11/08/09 83bpm

After four minutes
08/08/09 81bpm
11/08/09 76bpm


Throughout the test, I wore a heart rate monitor. The heart rate monitor measures your heartbeat, but takes three measurements - average, minimum, and maximum heartbeat. These are the results:

Maximum Heartrate
08/08/09 179bpm
11/08/09 183bpm

Average Heartrate
08/08/09 90bpm
11/08/09 94bpm

Minimum Heartrate
08/08/09 65bpm
11/08/09 58bpm
