Does P90X Work? A Brief Review of P90X
Do you like this story?
There are several questions that we tend to encounter from people who are new to the P90X personal fitness training program. The most common question is also the simplest: does p90x work? There are several ways in which this question can be answered. One way is by polling people, who have previously undertaken the P90X personal fitness training program, using a poll question: does P90X work? Another approach to answering the question is by giving the full set of P90X instructional DVDs to personal fitness training experts. After allowing them to work through the instructional DVDs, you can proceed to ask them the same question: does P90X work? Alternately, we can examine it critically and take an objective review of it in order to figure out if it works. That is the approach we now proceed to take.
There are two parameters that we'll use to review the P90X personal fitness program. The first is the efficacy of the exercise regime in the program. Second is the efficacy of the dietary modification aspect of the program. The objective in doing all this is to answer one question: does P90X work?
The efficacy of the physical exercises regime in P90X
People who undertake the P90X program tend to be the ones in pursuit of enhanced physical strength, cardiovascular health, and physical agility.
The physical exercise regime in P90X is made up of various sets of cardio workouts and sets of strength training workouts. These are supplemented with yoga and stretching exercises.
So, does P90X work as far as its physical exercise regime goes? There is no denying that when properly implemented, the strength training workouts in P90X will yield noticeable results, even for those who reached their strength training "plateaus." There is no denying that the cardio workouts in P90X yield results in terms of enhanced endurance, even for those who thought they achieved their peak physical endurance levels. Yoga and stretching exercises are effective in enhancing the agility of participators.
What is the verdict? P90X works at least as far as its physical exercise regiment component is concerned.
The efficacy of the dietary modification scheme in P90X
The dietary modification scheme in P90X is simple. Participants are gradually shifted from a high protein low carbohydrate diet towards one that is largely made up of energy-rich carbohydrates. The objective is to ensure that people performing P90X exercises are well supplied with energy and don't lose motivation. There is a well established correlation between levels of physical energy and levels of motivation to engage in physical activity.
