The only one that's 90 minutes is yoga, because it's incredibly slow and tedious (I mean, relaxing and zen-like), and I guess if you don't count the warm up and cool down, most of them are around 45 minutes... but then there's the ab workout 3 days a week, which adds 15 minutes to that.
I've heard/read different thing about the length of the workouts... some say you simply don't need more than about 30 minutes if you're working hard, while others say you should keep at it as long as you have the energy to do so. Some days I'll stop short because I'm toast, but I'm getting to the point where I can get through them if I pause it a few times for extra breaks.

I didn't get to the second month. I got sick and am absolutely swamped at work. After harvest I'm going to start the whole thing over.

Insanity is great but don't think you need to do the entire workout each time. I do it basically every day but sometimes I will do the warmup, stretch, then one interval, then stretch. Or sometimes I do two intervals, or sometimes I do one or two parts of each of the three intervals (It is three if you are on the Max stuff). If you are getting through it in good form and not completely struggling its fine to do the whole thing but if you are struggling and your form is off, you are better off stopping so you don't injure yourself or overwork yourself.
I have found that I still get the same results without completely killing myself as long as you are doing the exercises properly and effectively. Because he always says do what you can and take a rest when you need it and also, perhaps most importantly is that form is more important than speed. And when I compare my weight/results each day from doing the whole 60 minutes or perhaps only doing 30-40, they are the exact same. In fact sometimes, I see better results doing shorter workouts. |

brideowanian just ordered insanity.
She works out a lot, runs and does other videos and told me I was going to start doing this with her. I told her she was out of her damn mind and that if she wanted me to work out, I preferred the sexercycle. |

I started this again tonight. Had to quit after the first month. Work got batshit crazy and then I got sick. Took a break through harvest and am hitting it again.

I use the ab workout all the time because I hate doing situps and crunches. Great way to get your abs really good. I still get sore after doing this.

Once I completed the program I use the pure cardio more than any of the others. With the whole nonstop action and working every major muscle group I never feel like I am wasting any time at all.

Not looking forward to getting obliterated all over again. Hopefully this summer will go better than the spring did and I will be able to keep myself alive a little better. How's the shoulder, Tank? |

I was very sore the first week....and the crazy thing is I'd been doing some pretty good workouts for the last several weeks preparing myself for the insanity onslaught. so it wasn't as if I'd been inactive for a while.... it's a serious workout...no doubt.
