postheadericon P90X2 Has a Lot to Live Up To

The new P90X2 workout from Beachbody certainly has a lot to live up to. The P90X workout literally transformed the bodies of millions of people worldwide. P90X2 took several years to develop, a great deal of research went into this workout program. The P90X2 still focuses on muscle confusion, designed to avoid plateaus, and it is even more intense than the P90X workout program.

While the P90X2 is still a long 90 day program, it is different than its predecessor in that is focuses more on balance and agility, both of which are important for improved athletic performance. In his new program, Tony uses a stability ball and medicine balls, but there are instructions for using no extra equipment but a resistance band so the P90X2 workout can be done anywhere, even in a hotel room while traveling.

The P90X2 workout also has a new, better nutrition program with more choices than ever. There is a vegan option now because everyone should be able to follow the nutritional guide for the best results. Besides, without the proper nutrients, it will be difficult to sustain the energy required to complete a workout. You do not need to have done P90X in order to do P90X2 but the sequel is definitely not for couch potatoes. You should have been able to complete the P90X, whether you actually did or not, to benefit fully from this great new workout.

The P90X2 workout will not be available until December 2011 but it can be pre-ordered. For previews, just look online. There are previews of each workout including the Ab Ripper, the Core, the Yoga and the Sculpt workout. All look intense but so do the results. Beachbody is saying they will sell out quickly if you don’t pre-order, you won’t get one by Christmas. Usually I would think this is just hype but considering how well the P90X workout sold, it’s entirely possible.
