Hi guys,
I'm at the point where I know I need to start toning and training my body to shape it up.
With the weather turning I'm going to have to begin working out indoors. Having a small area to do this in I'd like positive and objective thoughts on:
Tabita training or DVD - Insanity work out v's 30 day shred v's 10mim work out.
Insanity is crazy and I feel I should probably do something else to work up to it? I have just come back to excerise in April after 2 yrs out and 2.5 stone going on!
I run 3x a week and play netball. I love drills too. The thing is I have to take it easy on my knees and hip - but I still push myself as much as I can.

Would love to hear from anyone who has done ESP if you've done Insanity, crated a tabata work out for yourself or have got round excerisingbin a small space.

Thanks
G

    Insanity kicks *kitten*. Two days left and never felt better or more motivated. You can handle it. Just start of slow, learn the form and the movements. Maybe do a workout, day off, workout, etc for a week or two. Then throw yourself to the wolves. I have also had great success with P90X and would recommend that any day as well.

    Brilliant, this is what I want to hear!
    My lounge is super small because of sofa's and units and I don't want to have to move them each time! Can I get away with floor space as long as me and as wide with my arms out stretched?

    Mike is right. It does kick *kitten*. Im only 8 workouts in but i love it. Although i am battered at the end i cant wait for the next workout.

    I spent month building up to doing it but its all about form and how hard you can push yourself. Il be doing P90X next.

    Go for it and good luck.

    You are going to need a little more room that, not much though. There are some jumps and plank work that you need a little more room for (especially the Sport Interval Training). I know when the kids are downstairs watching I am also conscious of them which distracts me from the workout. I don't think you want to be worrying about hitting the couch, when you should be concentrating on the workout. Also, you don't need hurt yourself in the process.
