P90X: A Discourse

Just had a great discussion on the merits of the "P90X" system I thought I would share:

[The benefits of P90X] for me, its (for the time being) providing a nice boost
bc for the last year have not been able to increase "effort" "variety" or "diet" on my own
my own weaknesses
most of the same reasons of getting a trainer
the only sig>0 effect would be its advice from an expert
to properly train all muscles
which of course is knowledge that could be acquired in other ways
but p90x is a (****) vehicle to provide or help motivate a lot of the factors necessary toward reaching higher fitness[.]

(Editor: conversation was continued below after a brief break)

but there certainly is some value in going to the gym bc u a) are going somewhere b) you are with other people (who can i. be hot (not at ballys) ii. be entertaining iii. make u a little bit less depressed for being alone)
last note: main thing i like about p90x is its continuous
thing i tend to do at gym, which is bad for me, is all the breaks
i find my best workouts are when breaks are limited
im in complete control....but if somenes not pushing me i tend to take breaks

and at gym sometimes u gotta wait on machines/weights
walk around etc
p90x...no breaks
pretty sick

(Editor: one final edit, I believe...)

yoga was the hardest one thus far
and i nearly passed out on 2 of the other ones (for perspective)

Just want to thank the anonymous contributor for a solid scientific analysis.
