Which DVD set do you prefer/think works best? I want to start a new workout routine for March because I am bored of the treadmill, just don't know what to choose. Insanity, P90x, TurboFire? Or is there another one that is better?

    I've done P90X and Insanity. If I had to choose one, I'd say Insanity. It was the hardest workout I have every done, but it was Amazing!!

    I like Insanity. I never finished it though with only 2 weeks left. I want to start it over again one day. I tried TurboFire and it looked hard and I wasn't able to keep up. I think I need to spend more time and just get used to it. As for P90X, I haven't tried it yet.

    Restart Insanity and finish it. You'll thank me later....

    P90x = More weight training, less emphasis on cardio

    Turbofire= Lots more cardio and High Intensity interval Training (Great for shedding pounds)

    Insanity =Much more plyometric, but also a cardio BLAST.

    I use P90x and turbofire together.



    What are your goals for working out?

    p90x AND turbofire!!! together. if you're looking for something fun and effective, but not a butt kicker right out of the gate ;-) use p90x for the resistance training and TF for cardio!!

    It depends on what you want from the workout. I have both P90X and Turbofire and I prefer P90x. TurboFire was fun for a few weeks but I just could not finish it because I got bored from too much cardio.
    I like P90X better because I enjoy the strength routines. For cardio days, I do the Plyo that comes with P90X but I use some of my faves from Turbofire for the other days.
    I also have Brazilian Butt Lift and that gives you the best leg workout you can ever ask for.

    I LOVE turbofire!! I'm on week 5 and it's so addictive. It's lots of cardio & there's some choreography to learn, but it's easy to catch on. I do think it depends on what you're looking for and what kind of workout you enjoy best.

    If you don't have a lot of weight to lose, I would do P90X to get sculpted.

    Thanks! I am pretty toned already and have muscle from doing sports my whole life so I am looking for more of a cardio video with some toning because I'm looking to drop pounds. It seems P90x isn't the one for me...

    I am doing TurboFire right now, and it's a blast!

    I've done INSANITY, and it's well INSANE, but so amazing :)

    I think you will LOVE TuroFire ... especially if you're toned & muscular from sport. P90X was great and the changes I saw were amazing (an this is without having graduated!)

    I was going to say Les Mills Pump until I saw this! I'm doing that one right now and LOVE it! :happy:

    So this is easy then...Insanity if you want a more athletic program and Turbo Fire if you like it a little more "dancey". Also, Turbo Fire has a lot of different LENGTH workouts in it...all the way from 15 minutes to and hour (I believe that's the longest...haven't done it in a while).
