Insanity Workout Program

The Insanity™ workout is a fitness program produced by Beachbody®, the company behind other popular workout dvd's such as P90X® and Slim in 6®. It is an intense full-body workout that uses nothing more than your own body weight to burn fat and calories. It is based on interval training but takes it to another level. The program was designed by fitness instructor Shaun T. You may recognize him from another popular in-home fitness program called Hip Hop Abs®.

The difference with this workout compared to most is that weights are not required. Your own body weight supplies the resistance that you need. It is also very intense. Interval training itself can be quite intense and Insanity uses max interval training which means, rather than doing moderate exercise with short bursts of intensity, you will be doing longer periods of intense exercise followed by short periods of moderate exercise.

The program includes 10 workouts including a "Fit Test" that will show you where you are currently fitness-wise and allows you to track your progress at the end of 60 days.

In month one, you will be working out to a rotation of 5 of the 10 workouts. Month two consists of 4 of the workouts in rotation. Month two workouts are slightly longer than month one, lasting about 45 minutes each.

There are several benefits to this program besides getting fit and losing weight. Below are just several:
