P90X vs. Insanity

Post by Shannon & Patrick

We have both tried P90X and Insanity. Since we started the programs people have asked us which one we like better. 

This is what we think.


Facts about P90X:

-12 workouts
-90 days
-Awesome meal plan with recipes!
-It is a mix of cardio, weights, stretching, Yoga
-You need some equipment (weights, chin up bar, pushup stands & Yoga mat). Some things are optional like the push up stands and Yoga mat.
-The workouts are 60-90 minutes.
-We think this workout is good to get toned and ripped. It can help you lose weight too.
-P90X is more serious.

Overall, we think this one is good if you want to lift weights, get ripped/toned and like a well rounded workout. Each workout is awesome! Patrick likes this one better than Insanity. Patrick didn't like Insanity.

Facts about Insanity:

-It has a lot of cardio.
-60 days.
-It is AWESOME for losing weight.
-10 workouts.
-There are A LOT of pushups!
-You don't need any equipment except for an optional Yoga mat.
-A heart rate monitor is very helpful.
-Workouts are 35-55 minutes.
-It is more upbeat than P90X.
-It has a lot of interval training.

Overall, this is a really fun workout if you like aerobics, track drills, or jumping. This one is for a shorter time period and the workouts are shorter in the first month. This is great for losing weight, but not as good for getting toned or ripped like P90X. Shannon likes this one better than P90X, but is also a big fan of P90X.

Stay tuned for which workouts we will be started in January!
