Some of y'all that keep weird hours like myself due to work or being born in the wrong hemisphere might have seen the Shawn T. Insanity Workout ads on late night TV. I started doing a workout routine last November and I was pretty comfortable with it. I started adding more cardio and running a few miles which I'm now up to 3.5 after a high ankle sprain and some other stuff.
So I saw this workout on some channel one night. I was considering picking up the P-90-X and doing that but I hadn't really gotten serious about it just yet. I watched the whole infomercial on the Insanity and it seemed like something I could get into. 35-50 minute high intensity workout you can do in home with no equipment. Seemed a little bit too good to be true so I did a little research, REALLY came away impressed with independent review and ordered one last week.
I got it today in the mail. First and foremost, they print out in mutliple places in the brochure, instructional manual and dietary supplement "YOU MUST CHECK WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE STARTING THIS PROGRAM." Twice more in the intro DVD the repeat the same thing both in print and Shawn says it as well, this program does NOT screw around.
I just got done with my first installment which is a series of 1 minute exercises repeated for their "fit test" so you can track your progress. Keep in mind again, 3.5 miles a day, 300-450 total crunches, upper body free weight workout as well is what I'm accustomed to.
My thoughts after JUST the test? Four words:
DOES NOT (MESS) AROUND.
I'll probably do just the test again tomorrow to get my count right since I screwed it up, but daaaaaang this thing is FOR REAL. You'll start sweating on the warm up exercises alone.
