Anyone doing GSP's Rushfit?

Just finished up Insanity a couple days ago, now onto Georges St- Pierre's Rushfit program. There doesn't seem to be too many threads surrounding the topic, so I was wondering if anyone else is doing it? I just started today and I'm liking it so far. Looking for some buddies to share the experience with!

    I started a thread like this earlier today. I started today too! Ouch! But I really liked it.
  • Was thinking of starting it myself too. I'm surprised there isn't more threads around here about this program. I was doing my own research and found this review of it which seems pretty good: http://www.yourenotstupid.com/georges-st-pierre-rushfit-workout-program-review/

    I'm thinking I'll give it a go in the next few weeks. Keep us posted on how you like it.

    I'm on month 2 of the beginner schedule right now..

    I really love it.. My pushups are really progressing, and I can see how far I've come in 2 months...
    I fit into a pair of jeans I hadn't worn in almost 4 years thanks to Erik Owings, GSP and their mega squatting routines!!

    I feel like im gonna have thighs and bunz of steel when this is all over..

    Feel free to add me.

    I did the intermediate schedule. I aso regularly do Jiu Jitsu 3 days a week. It is very helpful for JJ...weight loss/muscle build....wasn't a fan. It is VERY rough on the shoulders. Compared to Insanity's weight loss ability and P90X muscle gain ability...meh....it was fun to have something else to do, but I didn't get results from it.

    I am doing the intermediate calendar and have one workout left to finish week three - Personally I really like the program... Insanity was too hard on my knees/arches and P90X workouts are a little longer than I have time for. I wish there were a couple of different warm-ups cool downs but other than that it is a really solid program for me...

    How do you guys log this? I have a HRM that I can wear to estimate calories burned, but is that the best option?

    I wear my HR monitor and then create a new exercise when I log it. I am trying to keep track so I just call it Rushfit day (whatever day I am on) and then log the minutes and calories according to my HR monitor.

    Dag, this is disappointing. Funny thing is that I actually gained weight on Insanity, so maybe I'll lose weight with rushfit?

    Sounds logical to me. Thanks!
