Five Weeks of INSANITY
Print This Post
The last five weeks have been insane at times, although the real insanity is yet to come within these next four weeks. INSANITY is a sixty-day, intense, max interval, cardio, total-body conditioning program created by former track star Shaun T for Beachbody®. Today I finished week five. The first four weeks help improve your cardio and stamina while the fifth week is somewhat of a recovery week, which concentrates on exercises for stomach (core) strength and balance.
The real insane part begins in week 6, tomorrow for me. Just when you are getting used to the first month, Shaun T. changes the workout for month two and ups the difficulty.
At the beginning, I must say that I didn’t know how I would do compared to the people doing INSANITY on the DVD, but it was definitely going to be a challenge. The workouts I saw before buying the set of DVDs reminded me of my Shaolin martial arts training: fast-paced with lots of variety of exercises.
INSANITY comes in different versions. I bought the DELUXE version with three extra DVDs because I wanted the Upper Body Weight Training (which requires weights). You can buy this set used on Amazon.com, for example, at a much cheaper price. (more…)
