Thanks.

The good thing about Insanity, too, is that it's only 45 min. P90X is generally at least an hour to an hour and half.

Just remember to pace yourself. During the warmup he'll be telling you to do as many as you can. Don't get all excited and really try to do as many as you can, because you'll be done after the first few exercises. Just take your time, keep moving, and it really does work. You'll burn fat faster than anything else you do, and you'll be in the best shape of your life.

Once you're in shape and want to start building muscle you could either add P90X to your daily routine or just switch to it and stop doing Insanity.

Appreciate it.

But I need to exercise to lose weight and improve my health (I am a diabetic, so I need to lose the belly). Which workout best accomplishes this without killing me? I know neither one of these are going to be easy, and I will be sucking some serious wind for awhile just to make it through.

Thanks for asking what I was about to haha

Need to just lose some weight right about now. Once I get at/around my desired size, I'll work on physique but am not too worried about it right now... Gunna look into Insanity...
