The first time that I did this workout, it was my first real taste of Insanity other than the Fit Test and I was tentative during the workout and sore and tired the next day. This morning, I was coming off of Pure Cardio the day before and yet […]
After my body had a few hours to bask in the euphoria of thinking it had a recovery day from Insanity yesterday, it came back to reality and my legs were pretty sore. When I did Pure Cardio this morning, I felt like I had done a workout yesterday but […]
Do you ever have that thought, “Well, I’m tired and I have to ______________. Who hasn’t, right? I’ve had a busy week and busy weekend so far and I was tired from the first two Insanity workouts. I also had to get the Team Howtobefit newsletter done […]

You probably don’t notice, but as a highly successful Team Beachbody Coach, I only infrequently post or tweet about the Team Beachbody workout that I just did. Well, that isn’t because I don’t love all of the programs that I have tried or want to be able to bask […]

Today is Armistice Day and Veteran’s Day. Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice. President Dwight Eisenhower signed into law on May 26, 1954 a […]
Scott Morrison lost 45 pounds doing P90X and he is in top shape. He wants to go to the next level with Insanity. Here is what he writes after Day 2: “I don’t think I could use easy and Insanity in the same sentence, unless I included the […]
