Quick Question on Insanity

Posted in this in the group too, but I was hoping for a quicker response:

Ok a little background -

I'm an athlete, and I currently train 6 days a week already. I'm an MMA fighter, so I'm running 3 days a week (shorter distances, 2-3 mi) lifting 3x a week (strong lifts) and training 3x a week (muay thai, BJJ, wrestling, sparring, etc). Oh also I'm a father with an 8 month old, and my wife and I work opposite shifts (to avoid daycare) so my time is pretty limited!

I'm looking to see if Insanity will be a good choice to supplement my training. I was thinking doing it 3-4x a week in the mornings on days I don't run at 5:30am. I get that some people do this as their only workout, but I don't want to cut back on my other training.

I feel dumb asking this question, but I'm not familiar with the program. Are there any hard-set timetables for Insanity? I really can't commit to 6x a week and keep my training schedule at the same time. Do you think I'm doing a disservice by breaking it up and only doing it 3-4x a week?
