I have done Turbo, Insanity, and P90x. Are you a coach?

JLeeAlton

I guess I will start!

I am currently on week 7 of a P90X/Insanity Hybrid.
I recently bought new weights and new resistance band and this weekend I am on the hunt for a 64oz water bottle!!

After my P90X/Insanity Hybrid I plan on a P90X/Turbo Fire hybrid and I CAN NOT wait!!!

BUMP! I would love to hear the responses.

JLeeAlton

Nope I am not a coach just someone who loves the workouts!


And I also want to hear about other experiences with the programs.

I'm nearing the end of Week one of Month two Insanity.

Just checking in before I hit up some Max Interval Circuit, I'll be pressed for time tomorrow so I'm saving Max Recovery for tomorrow.

After Insanity, i'm not sure what path I will take. I was thinking about doing a P90X/Insanity hybrid, but now i'm looking into Turbo Fire. I just LOVE Shaun T so whatever I decide to do, i'm sure he'll be involved in some way lol

I started doing the Yoga Booty Ballet and I love it. It is so much fun I forget I'm working out.

Hi everyone! I'm on day four of Power 90. I'm working my way up to P90X and then probably Insanity after that. So far, I'm loving it!

Does anyone take their supplements?

ME! I'm on my first BB program. I'm doing Turbo Jam. Tomorrow will end week 2. (Beginner program). I LOVE it, and I cant wait to move onto one of the harder programs. That's one of my main goals, to be fit enough to move up in difficulty on the BB programs.

JLeeAlton

yay! I am glad to see all of you doing so well.

A friend is going to give me her Brazil Butt Lift DVD...I haven't done any of the BB workouts and I don't hear much about this one...is it a good all-around workout?

I heard Power 90 is great way to start before P90X..
I do not take any supplements except for vitamins.

We've taken Shakeology and plan to start up again soon. The P90X recovery drink taste great, but I felt it was unnecessary. We drink whey/casein protein shakes for recovery.

I do not know much about this workout but I am hoping to hear some responses.

i just started today i got halfway through insanity and got walking pnemonia and so im starting p90 today cuz i hear its a bit easier in the cardio sense

AdamATGATT

Just started my third month of Power 90 this week. The week after I finish that I am moving on to P90X.

My progress pics (not yet posted) show some decent changes. I wish I could have gotten a good side-shot at the beginning to compare to, but alas...

JLeeAlton

@abkeeling .. I know how you feel.. I really don't have before pics and I so wish that I did.

HeidiMightyRawr

I'm on day four of Insanity.. just finished cardio recovery which was a bit nicer to me but some of those yoga poses are so hard!!
I am thinking about getting another of the beachbody workouts once I am done with this.

gabyp0716

I love this thread!!!!

I'm doing INSANITY right now. I completed BBL and loved it. But I'm soo into Shaun T and the intesity of these workout. I'm probably going to do another round. But I also really wanna try REV ABS cause I love the capoeira and martial arts moves that it has.

PJilly

Bumpity Bump.

Yes, from what I have seen Power 90 is much easier than Insanity. It still gives good results. There is a bit of a jump between levels 1-2 and 3-4, but you get used to them after a week or so.

Going from 3 lunge-squats to 5 lunge-squats didn't sound like a big difference, but for some reason it was a heck of a lot harder in 3-4 when I got to it. Now they're not so bad.

I may just push myself a little more and up my weight tonight. We'll see how that goes.

I have been a huge beach body fan for a while now.... I currently own Power 90, Power 90 Masters series, Slim and Six, and P90x.... At one point in my life I had completed most of power 90, and all of slim in 6..... i recently just finished my first round of p90x and just started up my second round! So far, P90x has been my favorite. Power 90 and Slim and Six are great for beginners, however toward the end I got really bored and that was the reason I stopped.

You forgot to mention that you're now doing P90X doubles.

I can definitely see how you'd get bored. I am. I can't wait to start P90X just for the change of program it'll bring. My wife laughs whenever she joins me for a workout, since I quote Tony word for word now before he says anything.

I pushed play for the first time on April 3, 2009. Since then I have completed:

1. P90X-Lean
2. P90X-Doubles
3. P90X+
4. Insanity
Insert 2 months of nothing but dog walks here because I tore an intercostal ligament (right after my last Insanity workout and the pain would drop me to my knees if I even attempted to do anything core related.
5. ChaLean Extrme
6. ChaLean Extreme/Turbo Fire hybrid (20 weeks)
7. 6-week P90X/P90X+/ChaLean Extreme/Turbo Fire rotation

I am now in week #2 of a P90X/Turbo Fire hybrid.

Truly changed my life...honestly.

That is freakin awesome!!! Way to go! I am very excited to start my P90X and Turbo Fire hybrid.. somewhere in the middle of February.

Hi I'm Cristina!

Back in 2008 I got Hip Hop Abs LV1 and was so pumped about but yeah as usually I gave up.

July 2010 I got serious and ever since than I've been going Insane!

I completed one round of Insanity and working on my 2nd official round (this is my third attempt - other two attempts I had to listen to my body and stop)

Completed one round of Hip Hop Abs LV 2 (gave my sister my old HHA set and purchased the Hip Hop Abs combo set lol)

I have Brazil Buttlift but haven't completed a full month. It's a great workout BUT every time I hit the end of week 2 I get bored and go back to Insanity. BBL is a low calorie burn program (at least for me it is lol I crave for those high cal burn numbers)

I think Hip Hop Abs & Brazil Buttlift are good for when you want to maintain.

I just got Turbo Jam this week - for some reason I can't get into and glad it's just something I purchased on another site.

What I really want it Turbo Fire but waiting when we get our tax refund.

Cristina was just saying that it's a maintainance workout.

I lost 30 lbs last summer doing Slim in 6. After hitting a plateau, I just ran for a while...then the holidays came and I gained 8 lbs back. I'm doing Slim in 6 again, but i'm ready for the next step. I'm very interested in Insanity. Looks like some pretty good reviews.
