Beachbody is the company behind these popular videos along with many other health and fitness programs and they asked me to share my thoughts with all of you about some of their newest programs so here goes nothing!
Insanity
"The INSANITY Workout might just be the hardest fitness program ever put on DVD. Your personal trainer Shaun T
will push you past your limits with 10 INSANITY workout discs packed
with plyometric drills on top of nonstop intervals of strength, power,
resistance, and ab and core training moves. No equipment or weights
needed. Just the will to get the hardest body you’ve ever had."
Overview: Insanity's method consists of intense interval training and keeps you at a constant state of challenge as you alternate between the aerobic and anaerobic intervals. INSANITY is designed to keep you working at your max and as a result, burn up to 1,000 calories in an hour in order to get a great body in 60 days.
My thoughts: I have personally never tried INSANITY but have a few friends who have
done it and have heard several good things. Personally, I love the fact
that you can do an intense interval workout from the comfort of your own
home. I also like that the INSANITY discs are all different and you are
not doing the same workout every day. After one month you use a new set
of discs to keep things fresh and interesting.
P90X Certification
Overview: P90X Certified Trainers are in high demand and the training you get can change your future. The training you will receive will give you the right tools to train clients of all levels. You will also understand the science behind what makes P90X such a great workout. All training workshops last for 2 days and are offered in several different states. If you are looking to make your personal training business expand, associate with a well-known brand, and reach more people then P90X Certification is exactly what you need.
My thoughts: If you are a personal trainer then go for it! You can never be certified in too many different classes or workout programs. If this will help your business grow then why wouldn't you want to get certified?
Brazil Butt Lift Master Series Advanced Workout
"This series gives you advanced workouts and new tools to work your muscles from
angles you never imagined and sculpt the booty you've always dreamed
about. "
Overview: This workout is designed to work your muscles in new ways and give you results in just 30 days. This workout works 3 majors muscles: the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus which help to sculpt your butt and give you a bikini ready body. The series offers 3 different kits from Base to Elite which offer different options as to what products you get. All kits receive three Masters Series workouts, sculpting guide, calendar, stability ball, online support, and a 30-day money back guarantee. Some kits offer more items such as a foam roller, ankle weights, a slimming formula and a yoga mat.
My thoughts: I like that the program uses a stability ball and the users would become more familiar with stability ball exercises. I personally don't think I would ever buy this workout because I think that there are several effective workouts that can work these muscles but if you are inexperienced and really want to focus on that muscle group then it would be beneficial for you. I don't like that this workout series is for one specific muscle group though because all muscles in the body should be worked to prevent injury.

Overview: This system comes with 3 different DVDs from high intensity interval training, sports drills, to kick boxing workouts. It also comes with a step platform and weight plates to increase the effectiveness of your workout.
My thoughts: I like that this system includes different types of training that you can do at home. Beginners can do the workouts without weights or the step and more advanced people can add the weight to increase intensity.

Overall I think that these are all great products and love the ones that include different discs that allow you to change up your workout so you will never get bored. I enjoy working out from the comfort of my own home and have several different workout DVDs already so I wouldn't mind adding a few of these into my collection.
What do you think about these products? Are you interested in trying any of them?
I actually just quit Insanity.. granted my eating as terrible so I can't say that I saw any benefits from it but I just quit it because it was way too long for my focus and the moves even though the discs are different they all have the same exercises so you're essentially doing the same workout just in different orders and for me I found it very boring.
