How does P90X DVD Work?


The P90X workout system uses the training science of Muscle Confusion. Over the course of 90 days as your body changes, so do the workouts. The exercise portion of P90X consists of 3 Phases that continuously introduce new moves and routines into the mix. This makes each stage of P90X as effective as the first (it also happens to keep you from geting bored of the same old thing!).

P90X offers this unique approach because research has found that results from traditional workout programs tend to trail off over time. The more the body adapts to the same old routine the less effective it becomes. This phenomenon is known as the "Plateau Effect.” By alternating between many different movements, the P90X workouts avoid this pitfall and challenge your muscles to continue to grow, increasing your results throughout the entire 90 days. Take a look at the video to the left to get a better idea of how this works.

P90X, or Power 90 Extreme, is a home exercise system developed by Tony Horton in conjunction with Beachbody, which aims for an improved physique in 90 days through rigorous interval training. The program emphasizes full-body fitness, and consists of cardiovascular, strength training, and stretching exercises divided into three 30-day phases, combined with a nutrition and optional supplementation plan.

P90X stresses the importance of "muscle confusion" (a term for adding variety through cross-training and periodization)
, so it switches the order of exercises and incorporates new movements during each phase. According to Horton, muscle confusion prevents the body from adapting to exercises over time, resulting in continual improvement without plateaus. Several professional athletes and celebrities including Matt Diaz , David Akers , Sheryl Crow , Pink, Ashton Kutcher, and Demi Moore[8][9] have unofficially endorsed the product in various interviews and on social media sites, such as Twitter, when asked what type of training they used to get into shape.
