Could this work for doing p90x? I live in an apt with hardwood floors and can't find a mat that helps with comfort and noise level.

Is p9ox like burst training? I purchased this mat for my son & I can tell you that it is very adequate for hardwood floors - padding is thick and the mat stays in place. As for noise reduction (maybe in reference for the apartment below you?) I honestly don't know. I think you won't find a better mat for the price.

Maybe... I use the Jillian Michaels Body Revolution workout. So depending upon how similar those are. The mat is thick and well-cushioned.

Its a great mat, But Im honestly not sure about the noise reducing. Im a personal trainer, and I use it outside at parks for people to drop the barbell on when we do things like deadlifts and cleans.

I had it on my hardwood floor and it didn't slide, I was working out to Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. It did include jumping jacks, but I couldn't say how thatcompares to insanity or P90x.

This pad is pretty thick and works great for me, but my floors are hardwood. I ordered the biggest mat because my treadmill is commercial size. I know I couldn't help with the carpet part but I hope this helps a little.

I have hardwood floors, too, and it did reduce noise and vibration quite a bit. That being said, I would have to think the thicker mat would be best for noise reduction.

My wife uses hers on a cement basement floor for P90X workouts and I haven't heard any complaints. If 10 pound weights sit on it overnight, they'll leave an indentation that is semi-permanent, so that speaks to their thickness and cushion. We ended up with two set to get to the size she wanted for the movement exercises...

I have a treadmill on mine. It works great for that piece of equipment. The mat is a good thickness.

The mat stays good on a hard floor, like in a gym. Have not tried on hardwood. The mat gets slippy when you sweat during the excercise. I like the size, but it could have more grip on its surface.

Yes it could! Comfy but tough enough to be an all around exercise mat. You may want to look into the extended size mat and you can use it for both activities without limiting yourself space wise.

This mat is the kind you put under a piece of gym equipment. It is super rugged and heavy duty- weighs a ton! But it does not provide any cushioning for plyometrics or high impact exercise.

I think so,but make sure to have a rubber mat under it,even if you have carpeting.It makes a whirring noise,but it isn't that loud in my opinion.Unfortunately,if you have sensitive neighbors almost any equipment might set them off,but this is pretty quiet compatered to a treadmill or elliptical

I've done P90X and crossfit and I would recommend this mat. I don't slide, slip, or sink like on a foam mat. And your weights won't ruin the mat.

Not sure of that. This mat is primarily good for having to be positioned on knees, or laying down and doing various exercises.Running, jumping jacks, etc may not be a good idea on the mat.

I bought the mat for my son who is a big guy (225#). He uses it for exercise & stretching & is very satisfied with it. He has uncarpeted hardwood floors and finds the padding completely adequate.

Agreed. I am doing P 90 to work up to P90x. I wouldn't go back to P90. I'm sure you could modify P90x to get a 6 day schedule. Maybe post the question on team beachbody and am sure someone will help.

Oh yeah it should be fine for just pushups ^ . It didn't move on the floor at all for me, on carpet and wood.

You do not need a mat and it manifestly will not wear your carpet. If you sweat a lot (I do) then put a towel under the monorail to protect the carpet while you work out.
