Muscle confusion training is built on the premise that performing the same exercises day after day eventually causes muscles to plateau and stop growing. By following the concept of muscle confusion, muscles are “tricked” into growing faster, and over a longer period of time, because they’re worked by an ever-changing rotation of exercises. From sprints to kettlebells to plyometrics, the authors take readers through a variety of programs and help them customize workouts that lead to better, faster results. Based on proven principles with roots in such popular workout programs as P90X® and CrossFit®, readers of Muscle Confusion Training will find themselves growing faster, burning more fat in less time, and having a whole lot more fun in the process.
