Testing my sanity
In case you haven't noticed, I really like P90X from Beachbody. It's a great workout and I have gotten some amazing results from it. I think I need a little bit of a change, since I've done two rounds of it.
Bring on the insanity
On July 13th, 2009 Beachbody will be releasing Insanity, a new workout from Hip Hop Abs' creator Shawn T. Insanity is an intense 60-day workout program that focuses heavily on cardio. From what I hear the name isn't just a marketing ploy—it really is an insane workout.
Will you answer the call?
I want five or more people willing to put it all on the line and complete Insanity with me. We will all take body measurements and pictures before, at 30 days, and after. Heck, I might even put some money where my mouth is. When I get five people dedicated to step up we'll work out the details and I'll post them on this site.
If you're interested email me mike@thehealthier.me.
A couple Beachbody coaches have had the privilege of previewing one or two Insanity workouts already. Dave Ward put his thoughts on Insanity on YouTube. Keith Harris also put out a little teaser of Insanity.
Based on those two videos, it would be safe to say that I'm going to get my butt kicked. I'm going to hurt, be sore, and ache all over. And I'm going to love it!
I challenge you!
This is where I throw down the gauntlet. Do you think you're fit enough for Insanity? Can you finish the full 60 days? Do you think you can get better results than I can? Show me. Email me if you want to take on this challenge (mike@thehealthier.me).
Update 07/09/09: Insanity came out yesterday and I've already ordered a copy. Chris Fehnel picked up a copy and is in the challenge (more on the challenge specifics soon).
