Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?* I felt terrible about myself. Being in the Navy and being the biggest guy in your unit isn’t a good feeling. I was sick of being called “the big guy”. I […]
Kristjan won the Team Beachbody $500 Daily Prize for May 6th! My whole life I’ve BEEN big, and LIVED big spent my teens and 20’s in the 300+ club. Though overweight, I was still a happy-go-lucky kind of guy. I loved life and overindulged in things that brought me immediate […]
I have heard a lot of people say that they use chocolate milk as a recovery drink for their P90X , Insanity, or other Beachbody workout. Chocolate milk is not necessarily a terrible thing to use after a workout, but is it the best thing to put in your body […]
Making resolutions is the easy part, following through with them is the challenge! Many obstacles can get in our way from reaching our goals, our attitude included. The biggest thing I have learned is how my mind can have so much power over my actions. Deciding you want something […]
I felt like I needed to write something up on why I decided to put P90X2 on hold for now. Yes, I was really going to stat P90X2 on January 2nd, but I have to tell you, I wasn’t really looking forward to it. I pre-ordered it because I wanted […]
I have been involved in some sort of fitness regimen most of my life. From playing youth sports as a child, to weight lifting in my teens and early twenties, to mountain biking. In recent years I dipped into the “in-home fitness†spectrum of exercising. It started when my wife […]

Not everyone will enjoy or benefit from the same program. However, every effective workout program must contain three […]
I just wanted to write a quick post and update you on what I’ve been doing. I just about completed Insanity, got all the way to last week of month 2. I had Asylum sitting here waiting for me since April and I had mixed feelings about starting this […]
Sometimes things happen that are out of our control, but it’s how we deal with them that can make or break us. As I have written before, I have a history of back issues due to an injury that happened back in 2000. Every once in a while […]
My good friend Stephanie Goetsh, founder of HerExchange.com, has come together with me on an Insane journey to Insanity: The ASYLUM. Here’s what she has to say so far… A couple of weeks ago I (Stephanie Goetsch) got a call from a friend of mine, Diana Collins. […]
I do believe Asylum is my favorite workout program to date! All the workouts in this program are created to prepare you for Game Day, the first of which is on day 11. I was nervous for Game Day since Vertical Plyo is the craziest workout ever created […]
I’m almost done with week 4 of Insanity. I never thought I’d say it, but I really love it now. Last summer, I missed Tony Horton so much while Shaun T. put me through so much torture. But I think Shaun has won my heart, although I will always […]
I love using the P90X Nutrition Guide and the Insanity Elite Nutrition guide for recipes. Since I love to cook, I often make my own versions of the recipes. Last night we had breakfast for dinner. The night before I had made a salad with cubed chicken and […]
This morning marked Day 15 of Insanity for my husband and me. Day 15 means another Fit Test! I was really excited to see if I had made any improvements from the first Fit Test. So down to the basement we went at an early morning hour. I’ll tell […]
