The muscles will get more time for rest, and the psychological edge is dramatically different as opposed to constantly being harassed by grueling routines. Not only that but you get weekends free, a huge relief if you ask me. Namely, whereas the original Insanity workouts can go on for forty something minutes to even an hour, Max workouts last 30 minutes each. Both go on for 60 days at a time, but Insanity Max 30 follows somewhat shorter path to get there. Here is where the first difference is greatly felt. So, it is safe to conclude that the goals are basically the same. If you try to match the marketing with what is really happening after you push the play button two things become rather apparent- these workouts are primarily designed to make you lose weight, and to be hard as hell when you go through them.Īs a side effect- still following what they say in the marketing- you will improve your performance tenfold, and even gain some muscle too. First of all, what these two workout programs aim at?
Just scroll and read, you don’t even have to put your running shoes. Evaluating the two programs, here is a head to head comparison. Though for that purpose I needed to try the workouts separately one by one. This review delves somewhat deeper into the similarities and differences, pointing out where they start and where they end. The name, the trainer, the company… they are all the same… So what is different? However, it turns out that readers weren’t happy enough to only learn about this exercise program, but rather wanted to know how it compares to the Insanity workout. Sandra, a friend of ours and a seasoned fitness enthusiast, stepped forth and started Max 30 for the purpose of writing the most detailed review for Lifestyle Updated. Only this time it wasn’t me doing the heavy lifting, but we hired help from outside.
Our readers asked, and we answered with another review. One month prior of me writing this, Beachbody launched a new version of the program called Insanity Max 30. Suffice to say, this is not a keep-in-shape type of workout. The thought of going through one session wears you down even before the workout starts. But the original Insanity workout is not the type you chose if you want to do maintenance of your shape every now and then.
