I Have to admit it. Since getting a teaser of what this Insanity workout is all about this past March I was not amped up about its release. So, as the year progressed and we got a teaser preview and all the hyp building around it, I still was not excited. I was afraid. I know this workout is not for everyone and will be VERY DEMANDING for anyone who gives it their best. I also know it takes a certain mindset to push through it. There are no modifications. All or nothing with this one.
So, I have the option of just watching from the sidelines while my friends tear themselves apart with this program. I mean, what do I have to provc? I'm in the best shape of my life. I'm 45 years old and heck, I'm not trying to make the Olympic team or the NFL for that matters.
Guess what. I bought it anyway. Call it impulse- In the moment- Gotta have the latest and greatest. Call it whatever. I bought it...within 30 minutes of it being announced!!
Once I clicked the "buy" button. I paced the house waiting and waiting for that darn UPS truck to get here. Everyone else was getting theirs! Where's mine??
It arrived. You know what I did. Nothing. I panicked. Yes I opened it and looked at the impressive packaging. That's it. Maybe I'll try a few of the workouts. Maybe I'll give it a shot next month.
Well, I heard an infomercial was done about Insanity. Someone posted it on YouTube. I watched all there segments last night.
Guess what! I'm starting today. I have everything to prove and it's all me baby! I'm going to see what I'm made of. 60 days... Make it Insane!
Who's with me? Will it be you? Please join me in proving it to ourselves. We can do it!
Just minutes ago Team Beachbody announced the release of Shaun T's Insanity! So many people were blogging and twittering and posting about the news that fans took down the store. I ironic that so many would aready go insane! The store is up and running now. Next post will be on the announcement to get FREE shipping on home direct orders for Shakeology, Shakeology Fiber Boost, and Results & Recovery Drink!
Well, the the highly anticipated Shaun T workout called Insanity should be announce in Mid July assuming all planets have aligned. So, I have been gearing up for this mind-blowing workout series. Because I get the Tony Horton One - on - One DVDs that arrive at my mailbox once a month (subscription is only a 1¢ in the month of July), Beachbody throws in bonus DVDs from time to time. Last time we got a free Insanity workout! So, PT has been doing that one once or twice a week while doing the One on Ones.
After literally getting smacked upside the head this morning by Shaun T. it occurred to me that this video series could be dangerous to your health if certain precautions aren't taken. You see, you are going to need a lot of towels and rather absorbent clothing. As I worked out all I notices were pools of sweat collecting on the floor. Pretty rough on the footwork. Good thing I have hardwood flooring and grippy shoes!
So, while this upcoming series is going to no doubt whip me into better shape, I can see the dangers that lie ahead.
Welcome to the summer festival season! Here's what's on the menu to keep us sane, healthy, happy and fit! Tasty Protein!! Yep, add protein to your diet with Chocolate Covered Bacon... On a stick!!
You read right. Chocolate Covered Bacon. This will go well with the deep fried Oreos, greasy french fries and the fat-laden cream puffs at our state fair!
So, I get this bonus DVD preview with my recent Tony Horton's One on One Disk. I decide to give it a try and it crushes me. Do I walk away all pouty like? NO! I decide to do it again at the end of the week and videotape the entire workout. Yeah, I have some work to do on form, but I am ready to go insane this summer.
You can view the video footage snippets in my latest Power Blast Podcast Episode 113 for Saturday, May 30. This is not an advanced plyo routine as Keith Harris has told me. It's going to turn the cardio interval workout upside down.
If you love marathons, spinning or any other heavy duty cardio routines, then you're going to love the challenge of Insanity coming out in mid June!

This past April 13 marked 6 years since I started my journey to health and fitness. I actually started one year previously when I bought Power 90 of an infomercial at 4:30 in the morning. But I failed miserably as I tried to do the program on my own terms. So, the videos collected dust until I grew another jean size.
Fast forward to today, May 15, 2009 and I am BLOWN AWAY at what I have achieved using Beachbody workouts, supplements and online community support tools.
Last week Beachbody celebrated their 10th year Anniversary. So, I feel I discovered them in their infancy. My how this company has listened to the customer and developed amazing programs and products like Hip Hop Abs, Slim in Six, P90X, Turbo Jam, Yoga Booty Ballet, Chalean Extreme, Insanity and Shakeology. Each revolutionary in their own special way.
Two of the products mentioned above I have never done. Insanity hasn't yet hit the market and Yogo Booty Ballet just doesn't appeal to my inner Goddess. ;)
That being said, I want to thank all the amazing people at Beachbody and incredible trainers who have made it possible for me to walk with confidence and happiness. Now I am able to help others to adopt a health lifestyle through the Beachbody Coaching program. This lets someone like me earn a brilliant supplemental income without needing any special certification. All I gotta do is share my story. I proudly do.
Have you ever wanted to do a live workout with Tony Horton?? I have had the honor to do so 4 times. All great experiences and always a soreness festival! Of course it isn't always possible to book an appointment with The Man. So, the next best thing is to bring Tony into your house on DVD with awesome workouts like Power 90, P90X or even working out mono e mono (mano a mono, to be correct) with Tony himself with his subscription DVD series called One on One with Tony Horton.
You’ve never worked out with Tony Horton like this before. There's no set. Just you with Tony in his own gym! So, go ONE on ONE! Every month, a new workout will be delivered to your door. Plus, get a FREE DVD wallet to hold your new workouts!
And as an X-tra bonus this month (May 2009), they are including an entire DVD from the upcoming Shaun T's Insanity workout. But that's only available to subscribers.
