Beyond the basics of a chin-up bar and dumbbells or resistance bands, P90X2 adds items like a stability ball, medicine balls and a foam roller. The extra gear reflects its shift toward balance and functional training compared with the original P90X.
Do I need to finish P90X before starting P90X2?
P90X2 was designed as a graduate-level follow-up to the mid-2000s original, and trainer Tony Horton recommends having that kind of base fitness first. It assumes you already train hard, since it emphasizes stability, agility and complex functional movements.

P90X2 launched in late 2011 through Beachbody, Tony Horton's home-fitness company. It followed years of demand for a true sequel to P90X.
What is P.A.P. training in P90X2?
P.A.P. stands for Post-Activation Potentiation, a technique P90X2 uses in its performance phase by combining strength and explosive movements back to back. It's one of the program's signature departures from standard strength training.
