Fat Gone

I heard a lot about the Insanity workout dvd that as been designed by Shaun T and that it claims to give a complete body transformation within 60 days. But the thought that lingered in my mind was ‘Does Insanity workout really work as well as it claims?’

According to the fitness workout, by the end of the 60 days you will achieve weight loss and end up with a ripped, strong body. Aptly named Insanity because within 2 months you go from flab to fit and attain a completely professional level in fitness. I dug further and learnt that Shaun T has used body resistance training instead of weights so that cuts into time. The requirement of going to a gym and working out weights was reduced but the intensive program does play on your mental and physical endurance capacity.

From members and others who had successfully completed the home fitness program, I came to know that the basis behind the program is Maximum Interval Training technique where you do moderate workouts for short periods and intensive exercises for longer durations. That is what makes this program so successful in just 60 days workouts. With a combination of cardio for weight loss, plyometrics for toned lower parts, resistance training for the upper ports of the body and core strength exercises to get that flat abs, you just cannot lose it.

I was eager to try and realized after the first day’s workouts, each muscle does get sore and your body reminds you each time you move. But when I pulled through the complete workout, I could see the difference. However a word of caution, if you are looking to start on this program, I would suggest a few weeks of regular exercises that build stamina to be able to take the full benefit of the program.

A great thing with Insanity is that you’ll also have access to a Beachbody Coach, at no extra charge, and be able to ask any questions or tips on how to get through the program.
