Subject: Insanity vs. P90X???
First a backround.  This spring I could not run a mile without having to walk. 6'3" 235lbs.  Began running/biking and have just began P90X.  As of today I am down to 205lbs and sub 28 5k's.  I am no hero, but getting there.  Question is, with tri training, has anyone tried both programs?  And would you consider one more suited to tri training.  In my 3rd week of P90X, doing 2 a days most days, I can see the leg and body strength it is giving me and am very happy with it.  Just wondering if I should consider Insanity too.  Any tried and true thoughts?

Great link.  Have you or anybody else seen or put together your own "off season" tri workout that incorperate the two or use one or the other?

I switch between Asylum, P90x and regular Insanity often.

and soon I will be adding P90x2 when my Pre-Order arrives!

Thanks - I see you found MY website!

I've done Insanity, Asylum, Insanity/P90X Hybrid, Asylum/P90X hybrid and the answer is, it depends on your goals.

If you still want to s/b/r 2X or more each per week then I recommend P90X (only).  Insanity is GREAT for weight loss, though!
