P90X/Insanity HYBRID Starting March 7th!

Now that I'm almost done with the completion of  my first round of Insanity, I'm ready to start a hybrid of Insanity and P90X.  I miss my strength training!

Overall, I've seen improvement in my core through Insanity, but I've lost some upper body toning.  Insanity has my legs as strong as ever.

I firmly believe that a hybrid of the two may very well be the most perfect workout program.  Insanity is light on strength, but has awesome interval training.  Likewise, P90X is light on the cardio in my opinion.  It has plenty of strength training!

With that said, my husband and I are starting a hybrid of P90X and Insanity on March 7th.
