    What are you goals, building lean muscle or losing fat? P90X us great for lean muscle and Insanity is great for fat loss.

    I've only done Insanity. It's great for fat loss, since it's strenuous cardio, and in the first week I lost almost 3 lbs. It's really hard and you will sweat like never before! I'm saving P90X for after I've lost more weight, so I can define my shape.

    Yikes! What is this Insanity everyone is talking about? I have done P90X and got results...I just did the ab part and this was at work for about 30 minutes on our lunch break. I liked it but it was really challenging. I like having other people to do it with because we could all moan and groan together :laugh: I liked it.

    I agree it depends on what you want. P90X is a lot of weights and some cardio. Insanity is a lot of cardio and some strenght moves (but no weights)
    I have done both and am currently doing a hybrid of the two programs which I love since I get both and more variety than doing one program.

    I prefer Insanity since I am more into cardio than weight training and muscle building. Plus I am more concerned with weight loss right now than building up muscle.

    Just finishing first week of month one again. If you have any questions about the program let me know.
