Insanity Workout

I did insanity. Back when I didn't know wtf I was doing. I lost the weight I desired quickly but I had no muscle at that point. It will fucking melt the fat but it even though it's hiit you might lose muscle if you don't lift.

Back when I was in the Corps, my roommate and I did a cycle of this. I got shredded as fuck and he lost 30 lbs... and we didn't even finish the full 90 days. The thing is, with Insanity, just like any workout regiment, you get out of it what you put into it. It allows breaks as needed, but I tried to avoid that unless my heart rate was redlining for long periods and I was about to black out. Insanity made me a believer in high intensity plyometrics, that's for damn sure.

What are your fitness goals?

I did Insanity before. I certainly didn't get shredded or aesthetic by any means. But my resting heart rate was down in the 40's after the two months. It didn't make me any stronger either. It's pretty much pure cardio.

Why not do t25? It's the newer system from the same guy. Shaun T.

go lift and take the time to work out a fitness and nutrition program that works for you. things like p90 and insanity are quick fixes. /r/fitness, /r/bodyweightfitness and /r/gainit will help you out.

It's all marketing bullshit. Just hit the free weights and stop looking at stupid fucking programs with gaudy advertising campaigns backing them up.

I'd recommend doing the new Insanity Asylum workout. It'll get you a lot more muscle than the regular Insanity workout. Plus you'll have more agility and overall sports/physical performance. I've been doing it for a while and went from 125lb to 153lbs. It's hard as balls but Shaun T is hilarious and the stretch days feel like heaven.

I haven't tried insanity but it looks like cardio. Men generally need to lift as well as do cardio to stay in shape. Of course this also depends on you and your fitness goals.

A good crossfit gym is a better idea. Find a good gym that mixes lifting very heavy with metabolic conditioning that melts away fat, pumps up muscles and increases your fitness.

As a bonus, most crossfit gyms are 60%+ female, so you get to hit on some hot chicks while getting fit.

I literally beat away hot twenty somethings and a few married chicks at my crossfit gym. Nothing gets a girl more wet than watching someone with a good career take off his shirt and snatch 200+ lbs

alot of people do not like those workouts because you memorize them but can produce results and whatever gets you working out and enjoying life is good but they are also expensive. If you want to lose body fat this is good but going to the gym is the best thing for you anyways because you get to see beautiful women and helps with possible motivation issues.

I've been hearing a lot about this program and a friend and I are starting it next week. I'm fat (5 11"/6 and 108 kg. And let me tell you it ain't muscle.) so from what I understand, this program is going to be perfect for me.

Anyone got any links?
