Two words: Muscle Confusion

I have always been a fan of Periodization also known as muscle confusion. Through history many cultures have used this to stimulate muscle growth. So as you can see the “Muscle Confusion” that is provided through P90X is not a new thought.

I knew that muscle confusion not only helps people to lose weight but it can also be used to promote massive muscular growth and that is just the ticket I was looking for.

You see there was a time in my life that I weighed an amazing 185 lbs at 4% bodyfat. Now let me provide you with a small back-story before I move forward.

“I graduated high school and entered the military weighing only 120 lbs. During my military career my mother passed away. She died from a horrible bout of cancer. She was only 38 when she died so I decided at that time to change my life and to help everyone I could. Through my studies I learned the body could heal itself and change for the better.

I applied what I had learned and within 18 months I went from 125lbs to 175lbs of rock hard muscle. Over a few more months my weight crept up to the eventual 185 mark. And then…

I had a skydiving accident and broke many bones in my body. This accident kept me away from the gym for several years and as such my bodyweight plummeted to 135 lbs. somewhere along the way I separated from the military and started working for the corporate world. In the following years my body became weak from lack of activity.”

Fast forward to late 2009 when I saw my first P90X infomercial, I knew that this program was what I needed and that it was time to once again build a better me. So, on Jan 1 2010 I joined Team Beach Body and started my first P90X program. My goal was to transform my body from 135 lbs to 165 lbs and still maintain a low body fat %.

As of this writing I am on day 66 and so far I have gained 15 lbs. placing me at 150 lbs. This program works as advertised! I have shown amazing gains and I know that I will have no problem in attaining the desired goals I have set forth!

Whatever your goals: weight loss, muscle gain, core balancing or athletic improvement; P90X and muscle confusion will work for you just as it has tens of thousands before you.
