P90X

Okay, so in my frenzy to lose weight( yes, Frenzy..wait, its more like an obsession! ) i came across the info-mercial for P90X. I know, i know, another exercise video. See what happens when you are awake at 2am with nothing else to watch? But this one made sense. MUSCLE CONFUSION. I have copies of most of the dvds at home. Here is the Philosophy:

How does P90X work?
Two words: Muscle Confusion. By providing an extensive variety of different moves that take time to master, P90X is continually challenging the body's muscles into new growth. The more you confuse the muscle, the harder your body has to work to keep up; the more variety you put into your workout, the better and faster your results will be.
The flaw with many fitness products is that they all lead to a "plateau" where the body becomes accustomed to the routines, resulting in diminished effectiveness. P90X avoids this plateau effect by switching things up to keep the body guessing for the entire 90 days. Which means IT NEVER GETS EASY. By breaking old routines and opening new doors, secondary and tertiary muscles are constantly being activated and developed.
What can you expect?
You can expect to develop skills, coordination, and flexibility you never dreamed possible. You can expect to sharpen your knowledge of smart eating and discover healthy diet choices. And you can expect to sweat. A lot.

There are 12 highly diverse and intense workouts.




This is what i'll be doing this week starting tonight. I did the Shoulders & Arms DVD last week and Phew!! all I needed for this specific video was a pair of dumb-bells and a stretch band. So, we'll see how it goes! I'll try to stick to it this week. FOCUS, FOCUS! 8-)
