Hi daisyduke,
I haven't done P90X, but have gotten great results with The Firm. Increased strength and definition, muscle gains, and more energy. I also enjoy the mix of cardio and weights, as I am not a cardio junkie.
I've been doing them on and off for five years now (mixing them up with other workouts for the sake of variety). My favorites are the BBH era ones (1986-2000)--especially Firm Strength, Maximum Body Sculpting, and Volume 1. From the post Benson era, my favorite Body Sculpting System (BSS) is a tie between BSS2 and BSS4.
Currently, I'm on a Margaret Richard and Pilates/barre kick, but am trying to throw my beloved Firms in here and there. They will always be my favorite workouts, and the ones I credit for helping me get hooked on home video exercise. If it weren't for the day I found the original six volumes in the clamshells at a yard sale (all for $1), I wouldn't be where I am today!
