QUESTION
What is the schedule for the P90X workout program?
ANSWER
The P90X workout program is a rigorous home fitness regimen designed by Tony Horton, intended to be completed over the course of 90 days. It employs a technique called "muscle confusion," which aims to prevent plateaus and continuously challenge the body's muscles by varying the workout routine. The schedule is divided into three phases, each spanning four weeks, with workouts six days a week and one rest day. Each day targets different muscle groups and fitness goals: Monday is typically for chest and back exercises, Tuesday for plyometrics, Wednesday focuses on shoulders and arms, Thursday on yoga, Friday emphasizes leg strength and back exercises, and Saturday is dedicated to kenpo karate-inspired cardio. The seventh day is for rest or stretching with the X Stretch video. Every fourth week is a recovery phase, with a focus on cardiovascular workouts and stretching to prepare for the next phase of training. Users also have the option to substitute Core Synergistics for the regular routine during recovery weeks.
