This 39 minutes DVD is the second Insanity workout. If you are doing the full 60-day program, you'll repeat this workout five times in the first month. Don't get too excited about the fact that it is only 39 minutes. Every minute is packed with heart pumping action. There's not a second that is wasted.
Shaun T leads a group of 10-15 male and female fitness demonstrators in the Insanity gym. There are

Body Beast Workouts
Introduction to the Body Beast Workouts
For those who are in a hurry to get huge, every Body Beast kit comes with twelve muscle blasting workouts. I’ve been doing Body Beast for the last four weeks, and I can say without hesitation that Body Beast features the best weight training DVD workouts that Beachbody, or anyone, has ever produced. These workouts are the last word in exercises designed to build mass (until Sagi Kalev can dream up more ways to induce muscle failure). If you can’t

Recommended Equipment for Body Beast
You probably already know that Body Beast is a muscle building program designed to be done at home.

Body Beast for Women

Women Can Benefit from Body Beast as Much as Men
Body Beast is a serious weightlifting/bodybuilding program. It is the first of its kind that takes a comprehensive approach to building muscle mass. Although it has been marketed exclusively to the high testosterone crowd, there is no reason why women cannot or should not do Body Beast. Sagi Kalev, the creator of Body Beast, has stated that he encourages more

MIA: The Les Mills Pump Workout Schedule
One of the annoying things about the Les Mills Pump program is that it doesn’t come with a separate workout schedule. By that, I mean there’s no calendar or schedule where you can see what workout you need to do on a particular day, and check it off once you’re done. The lack of a separate workout schedule is a serious oversight considering that fact that the Les Mills Pump workouts vary from week to week. Unlike other workout programs where you

P90X2 Results
P90X2 Results: Building a Better Fitness Program
I’ve written here that P90X is not a muscle building program. It is a general fitness program that just happens to emphasize resistance training. You can certainly use P90X to build a muscular physique (as many P90X grads have done), but that’s not what the program is primarily designed to do. The same can be said for P90X2. In fact, Tony Horton has flat-out stated that P90X2’s goal was to move the fitness bar even higher. It is no longer

P90X2 Core Review
If you have any questions about this workout, contact me at buildahardbody.
First Impressions
Tony appears in X2 Core sporting a USMC t-shirt, a nice shoutout to all current and former devil dogs. Ooh rah! Yut! Tony was never a Marine, and I generally object to non-Marines wearing USMC swag, but I didn’t mind in this instance because I have no doubt that Tony is hardcore enough for the Corps, and would’ve made a fine Marine. Tony's cousin is a colonel in the Marine Corps. He

P90X2 Plyocide Review
If you have any questions about this workout, contact me at buildahardbody@gmail.com.
First Impressions
Tony announces at the beginning that Plyocide is, “death by jumping.” He quickly realizes that this could bum some people out, and says Plyocide is actually about “life!” Too late, Tony! All the marketing materials have been printed and the DVDs pressed. You can’t change the name to Plyolife now. Besides, I'm more likely to do a workout that I think could kill me. Blame it on

Insanity Review: Plyometric Cardio Circuit
If you have any questions about this workout, contact me at buildahardbody@gmail.com.
This is the first real Insanity workout after the fit test. If you are doing the full 60-day program, you will repeat this routine seven times. The fit test should have prepared your mind and body for what is to come, but not really, because this routine is 42 minutes long. If you had a hard time with the fit test, you're going to hate this workout. Stick with it and you will get stronger and

Insanity: The Asylum, Vol. 2 Coming Soon
Insanity: The Asylum, Vol. 2 Scheduled for Fall 2012 Release
You heard it here first, everyone. The workout that has built an rabid cult following is getting another sequel. Even thought it's been out for almost a year, you haven't heard me discuss much about Insanity: The Asylum Vol. 1 for a reason. I haven't completed the program yet. It's been sitting on my TV console for the last five months. I was planning to start it in the spring, but Les Mills PUMP really piqued my interest. Summer

Is Les Mills PUMP Right for You?
Who Can Benefit from Les Mills Pump
I just finished a 90-day round of Les Mills PUMP, so I know the program very well. In the future, I will be posting more detailed reviews of each of the workouts which make up Les Mills PUMP. For now, I am sharing my general thoughts about the program. I will say that Les Mills PUMP surprised me. I tried the program because of a recommendation from a friend whose fitness opinion I respect. I didn’t know anything about Les Mills PUMP except that it is very

Hitler Rants About Crossfit
What Exactly Does Hitler Have Against Crossfit?
Just for the record, I respect all fitness programs. Whatever works for you is what you should be doing. As long as you are off your but and moving and lifting, then more power to you. That said, I still found this video exceedingly hilarious. Even if you're a Crossfitter, you have to admit that some of the points were spot on.
Again, my purpose is not to start a flame war about what fitness program or system is the best, or what you should be

Mr. Big Stuff: A Q&A with Body Beast's Sagi Kalev
By Rebecca Swanner
Are you ready to get ripped? Beachbody has joined forces with Sagi Kalev, champion bodybuilder and former Mr. Israel, to create Body Beast, the program that will help get you big—and we mean really, really big—in just three months. But, believe it or not, Sagi didn't start off huge when he started lifting 24 years ago.
Recently, we spoke with Sagi about this transformation; about his general bodybuilding philosophy; and, of course, about the new
