is this the "muscle confusion" technique? if so, i looked into it before. it seems to be a big joke. if you read up on muscle confusion, it seems just like an advertising method more than a workout method

S#!t, for $30 I'd give it a shot! that damn program retails for over a hundred I think. Just remember, if you want to see the results they show in the advertisements, you'll need to really watch your diet.

I'll give you a hint. Watching your diet and exercising an hour a day will make you more lean pretty much regardless of what type of system you do.

sorry that P90X has become synonymous with muscle confusion. muscle confusion has long been a weight trainer's plateau buster, sometimes with better results than the regular workout. we used to use completely insane things like 100 reps and revere pyramids to get through the plateau periods. a plateau is a point in time where you do not grow, either in pounds and strength for power lifters or in body size for bodybuilders. it can be the most frustrating time, since we're only in it to grow and the lack of growth doing things you've always done is the ninth circle of hell.
i do not think that this P90X is a true muscle confuser. it claims to always vary the routines so that your muscles never have a chance to build up a tolerance to training.
