Beachbody releases Insanity!
Beachbody has finaly released Insanity, a new 60 day cardio-based total body conditioning program that could be the most intense workout ever put on DVD. Fitness expert Shaun T put his years of experience as an elite traner to create this extreme workout that does for cardio what P90X did for resistance training.
Insanity uses interval training to beat the “stress adaptation response” which normally causes your body to get used to exercise and stop improving. Interval workouts use sets where you perform at maximum effort then one of lower intensity, then repeat the cycle to achieve a cumulative effect. Adding high intensity exercise with your heart rate at 80% of maximum forces your body to use fast-twich muscle fibers that are not normaly used in cardio workouts. These muscle fibers will continue burning fuel even during lower intensity exercise. With Insanity you will likely be working out at 85% of maximum and as a result you could be burning as much as 1,000 calories per hour!
While Shaun T’s earlier DVD programs Hip Hop Abs and Rockin’ Body were dance based, Insanity uses sports science and high level conditioning techniques to create its body composition changes.
While programs such as P90X and ChaLEAN Extreme focus on weight training to build muscle and burn fat, Insanity uses only the resistance of your own body to crank up your cardio, lower you body fat percentage and sculpt your muscles. The only gear you need are water, a towel, and you own commitment.
Insanity is geared towards people in top physical shape, extreme athletes, graduates of other Beachbody programs, cardio workout lovers and former scholastic athletes. It is not recomended for beginners, pregnant woman, obese people, people who aren’t willing to work hard or people who don’t consistently do high-impact exercise. There are other Beachbody programs that can help to get us ready for Insanity.
