So I'm almost finished with P90X Doubles and am planning on doing Insanity next. How do they compare?

    from what I understand, you will get very toned legs lol, but you wont gain a lot of upper body muscle compared with p90x, its basically very intense bodyweight exercises, i was going to do it but i want to continue focusing on my strength training rather than cardio, but it will certainly boost your fitness levels.

    Oh wow, Insanity is major cardio. P90X cardio and plyo is nothing compared to Insanity. If you were huffing and puffing during P90X cardio/plyo you will be doing some serious work during Insanity because it is all cardio. It is an awesome program but tough. You do lots of pushups too. It is a fantastic program and I highly recommend it. If you want me to send you some videos that I have access to I'd be more than happy to or if you just want to chat further pop me a message.

    Insanity is a ton of cardio and basically only pushups for upper body BUT the deluxe set comes with an Upper Body Weight Training DVD...it's not on the schedule and I haven't tried it yet but at least it's there :)
