    My buddy is doing P90X and I am doing Insanity. We will trade in a few weeks.

    It is my experience that Insanity is doing more alone the lines of toning/conditioning and P90X will add more muscle definition.

    I am not losing any weight with Insanity (week 3) but don't really have much to lose. It is doing a great job with conditioning and core muscles are constantly worked...I mean constantly. I actually burn around 550 calories (HRM/chest strap) per 40 minute Insanity workout.

    My goal is to lose weight, so I think Insanity is best. I have tried both and Insanity is a lot of cardio. It doesn't really work your upper body though, so you should throw in some weights in your free time if you choose Insanity.

    I really like insanity. I chose it because I did not need to purchase any extra equipment in order to complete the program. Also the workouts are a bit shorter so it is easier to fit into my lifestyle.
