Why PX902 Works
PX902, the latest Beachbody workout program, really does work as promised, just like P90X did. Every workout DVD promises results, otherwise no one would ever buy them but few actually deliver. The reason P90X and P90X2 work is that they are based on a principle that the trainer, Tony Horton, terms muscle confusion.
Muscle confusion is basically the prevention of muscle tolerance. If you took a barbell and lifted it everyday for weeks in the exact same way, you would see some benefit to your arms at first. After a while, your muscles would adapt to the exercise and stop getting any stronger. You would reach what is known as a plateau, where the exercise no longer has any benefit. Think out it, people who have jobs where they continuously lift the same boxes day after day don’t get huge muscles, their muscles adapted .
The P90X2 workout mixes up workout routines over a 90 day period so your muscles remain “confused”. You’ll never be continuously repeating the same movement so your muscles will get a true workout. If you are going to work hard at getting in better shape, you will see better results using the P90X2 program. Your efforts will pay off and you will see the advantages of using a program based on the sound principles of muscle confusion.
With the P90X2 workout, you will receive a workout calender. The calendar not only helps you keep track of your workouts, it encourages you to write down your measurements and take pictures of your progress. Having someone take full length pictures of you as you progress is a great idea. Most people are very sorry if they don’t. You can always post a picture of yourself before beginning the workout on the fridge to discourage unhealthy eating too!
