    If you do either one of those programs, your calorie count is going to have to go WAY up. When you exercise that heavy, your body needs those calories to fuel it, otherwise it will go into starvation mode and then no weight loss, anger issues, shots are fired, does not end pretty. So make sure you are ready to eat alot more than your accustomed to.

    I do the beachbody programs and my calorie intake is only 1200. I've been loosing an avg of 2.5-3 lbs a week. In fact I'm getting ready to do a 90 day P90X challenge with some other peeps I also use shakeology which helps a lot too.

    I've done both. P90X is better if you're trying to put on muscle, Insanity will help you shed weight. You will also build muscle with Insanity but it will be more in your lower body because you do a lot of squats, lunges, jumps, and balance exercises in month 2. P90X has a lot of upper body exercises in it which I don't prefer because I was putting on TOO much muscle. I did 2 months of P90X but then switched to Insanity. I am never going back. I love Insanity!
