Insanity is a workout program, developed by Shaun T. that claims to significantly improve fitness in 60 days by an intense training.
Tough Fitness Program
This fitness program is considered to be one of the toughest fitness programs ever and pushes men and women to go beyond their limit during heavy work-outs that consist of strength and cardio.
Insanity is not a program for every person. You should have a good condition before starting the Insanity workouts. If you are not working out at all, then it would be good to first build up your fitness level before starting this tough program. Other important elements for the program are motivation and discipline.
The Insanity workout program is also a good way to lose weight, by improving your fitness, burning fat and following a proper diet.
Getting started with Insanity
Before you start with the Insanity fitness program, you will need the Insanity DVD and obviously a DVD-player and TV to play the DVDs on. It is also advisable to have a gym mat for your exercises. The workout program takes 60 days, so make sure to free time in your daily schedule, since you need to work out 6 days a week. It is really a serious commitment you are making.
Each training session starts with a warming up and ends with a cooling down and during the program you are being advised to listen to your body and take water-breaks if needed.
Insanity Workout Elements
The Insanity workout includes the following elements:
- Resistance Moves – for a strong upper body
- Recovery – moderate workout to recover from the high intensity work out exercises
- Plyo – for slim legs and butt
- Pure cardio – for fat burning
With your DVD, you also get a wall calendar that shows you what exercise to do, a Quick Start Guide, a nutrition plan that has 60 days worth of menus and recipes and a free online support, where you can have live chats with Shaun T and also meet other people who started the Insanity challenge.
Please be aware that results can vary and that you need to work out and follow a proper diet to get muscle definition and to achieve and maintain weight loss.
