What is Insanity MAX 30?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and also got some good Cyber Monday deals!  Speaking of deals, did you know that Shaun T, creator of programs like Hip Hop Abs, Insanity, T25, etc)  is coming out with a NEW fitness program?  It's called Insanity Max 30 and is going to be the next crazy insane fitness program that will give you unbelievable results!  So, I am loving every minute of these newer Beachbody fitness programs that are continually being released because they have been about 30 minutes or less!  Surely you can block out 30 minutes of your day, right?

Insanity Max 30 is all about pushing yourself to the limit.  It is taking home fitness programs to the EXTREME next level in just 30 minutes a day!  This is definitely a hardcore workout that will take dedication, motivation, and solid effort.  It is almost like a mental game of how far you can push yourself before you MAX OUT!  

I am super excited for this workout to come out and will be running an exclusive Insanity Max 30 test group beginning Monday, December 8th.  

So, what exactly IS Insanity Max 30?  Let me tell you a little about it so you can decide if you think it would be a good fit for you. 

Who is Insanity Max 30 for?

Before you rule out this program due to it's intensity, let me start by saying that there is a low-impact modifier in every workout.  The program actually comes with with a special feature so that the modifier stays on the screen at all times!  For those of you who have followed a modifier in other programs, you have probably run in to the issue of not being able to see exactly how to modify a move until several seconds in to a specific exercise. This will not be a problem with Max 30.  Setting the option and having the modifier on the screen at all times will make it easier to see and easier to follow. 

While there is no denying that this is an intense workout, a beginner who is looking to really jump start their fitness journey using an intense workout, or someone who is looking to take their fitness to the next level, would be a perfect candidate for Insanity Max 30.  When it comes down to it, it's not about being in great shape to handle the workout, it's about showing up every day and pushing yourself to YOUR max. 

What does it mean to "Max Out?"

The idea of "maxing out" isn't actually bad.  That's the point!  What you do is you go as hard as you can for as long as you can until you need a break, or until you MAX OUT!  Then, you write down your time, take your break, and jump back in! If you stick with the program and stay committed to your results, then you will notice that your max out time increases each week.  

Insanity Max 30 - 5 days a Week

What are the Insanity Max 30 workouts?

Insanity Max 30 is a 60 day program with two 30 day phases. You will be happy to hear that it is 30 minutes per day / 5 days per week. In addition, you get to switch up your workouts for the second month.  On a recent webinar, Shaun T talked about his incorporation of Tabata workouts. In the Tabata workouts you do 20 seconds on and 10 seconds off power moves.  During month two, those intervals increase to 45 seconds on and 15 seconds off.  

During month one, there are 2 cardio workouts, two strength workouts, and the Max 30 Friday Fight. 

Insanity Max 30 - Cardio Challenge

Insanity Max 30 - Sweat Intervals

Insanity Max 30 - Tabata Power

Insanity Max 30 - Tabata Strength

Insanity Max 30 - Friday Fight Round 1

  During month two, you incorporate Max Out Cardio, Max Out Sweat, 2 Tabata strength workouts, and again, the Friday Fight Round 2. 

Insanity Max 30 - Max Out Cardio

Insanity Max 30 - Max Out Sweat

Insanity Max 30 - Max Out Power

Insanity Max 30 - Max Out Strength

Insanity Max 30 - Friday Fight Round 2

So, overall, you get 10 workout DVD's, a MAX out Nutrition Guide, Restaurant Guide, and a Wall Calendar with your scheduled workouts.  When ordering through a Coach, like myself, you will also get a Coach Exclusive workout called Sweat Fest! 

If you are considering Insanity Max 30, there are a few options that you can choose from.  You can get the base kit, the deluxe kit, or the challenge pack.  So what's the difference?  The base kit (pictured below) will include everything described above.  

The challenge pack (which will be the December promotion - which means the best bang for your buck - will include the base kit AND a 30 day supply of Shakeology.

Insanity Max 30 Base Kit

The Delux Kit (picture below) takes it up a notch and incorporates some extras including workouts, a Shakeology shaker cup, and portion control containers.  21 Day Fixers will be happy to know that the Insanity Max 30 nutrition plan DOES support the use of the 21 Day Fix containers!  

Insanity Max 30 Deluxe Kit

How can you get it?

Insanity Max 30 will be released on December 9th; however, you will be able to get it through me a week earlier, which is THIS TUESDAY, December 2nd!!  If you don't already have a coach, you can sign up for a free membership (so that I am your coach) HERE!  

Exclusive Insanity Max 30 Test Group:

December 8th will begin an exclusive Insanity Max 30 Test Group.  If you are interested in joining and/or getting more info, please email me.  There will be limited availability within the group and spots will be filled on a first come first serve basis. 

Requirements of the Challenge Group:

• Insanity Max 30 Challenge Pack - includes the Base Kit (explained above), a one month supply of Shakeology, discounted shipping, and me as your coach!   The challenge pack will be a December promotion, plus it has everything you need to get started!

The Test group will include complete guidance, support, motivation, and accountability through the duration of the 60 day program.  I will incorporate weekly meal planning, post my personal meal plans, and everyone will replace one meal per day with Shakeology.   Truthfully, it is perfect timing to have Shakeology.  At this time of year we are tempted with lots of sweets.  Shakeology is a nutritionally dense meal replacement that provides you with your daily dose of nutrients.  When doing a workout such as Insanity Max 30, your body will need to be replenished with nutrients for recovery. Shakeology also has the proper carb to protein ratio which will help keep you feeling fuller, longer. There are all kinds of yummy "treat" recipes that you can make that will help you stay on track through the holiday season too!

So, what do you say?  Are you in?!  As your coach, I will not only be going through the program WITH you, but I will provide you with the support to stick with it and get GREAT results!  It will not become another fitness program that collects dust!  

Be sure to email me for more information and/or to join the exclusive test group!

In addition, feel free to send me a Facebook Friend Request so that you can see some great tips, motivation, recipes, and meal plans that I share throughout the week!

Week 4: P90x3 Progress update

Wow, can’t believe were already at the end of month 1. This week is considered our Transitioning week. We’re going from BLOCK 1 workouts that have been the same since the first week to BLOCK 2

Workouts for this week are:

Monday: Isometrix

Tuesday: Dynamix

Wednesday: Accelerator

Thursday: Pilates

Friday: Agility X

Saturday: X3 yoga

Sunday: REST or Dynamix

Agility X at the lake

One thing I have never done before starting X3 was YOGA. I am not flexible by any means and thought I had some decent balance. Yoga definitely confirmed I am not flexible and I learned that I am off on my balance. So one of my goals I am setting for myself is to be able to touch my toes by the end of this program. THIS IS HUGE FOR ME.

Short story about my childhood. In elementary school they had different levels of awards in my PE class. I could never make presidential award because I could never hit the SIT & REACH at 33. I could never get my hands on the board.

Gorgeous view from the condo Saturday morning

Isometrix is another form of yoga, but is a little more intense. Great workout! Pilates is new this week so I am excited to try that as well.

One thing I have been doing, is if I skip a workout one night ill double up on another. This has helped me not miss any workouts.

 

Physical Changes:


I feel so GOOD!

I can start to see a difference in my body. My arms are getting stronger and my obliques are becoming more defined.

 

Next: My meal plan for this week. I have changed a few things. I had too many carbs on my diet before so I did alter that a bit with switching some snacks.

 

 

To give you an idea of what meal plan outline I am following if from P90x3’s Nutritional Guide they suggest while doing the 90 day workouts.

As you can see I love my SHAKEOLOGY. I normally switch it up between breakfast and lunch but this week it’s ALL lunch. It makes is easier during the week with my job and also on the weekends with errands.

I just switched my SHAKEOLOGY HOME DIRECT and ordered the combo pack with chocolate, vanilla, & strawberry. I cannot wait to try the new Strawberry flavor.

 

Are you currently doing P90X3 and do not have a coach? I can be your coach!! Create a FREE ACCOUNT and contact me to chat about how I can help you reach your health & fitness goals today!

 

Stay tuned for next week’s update! I will be starting Week 5 and a new Block of workouts.

 

 

This also happened at work this week. I was having a major sweet tooth and caved into our candy at work.

XOXO,

Dreading your workout? Here are 3 ways to get motivated.

1. Check in with your favorite health hero
When I’m not in the mood to work out, I check out Chalene Johnson's instagram for a little inspiration. Reading about someone else’s motivation and successes always seems to get me moving. Plus, I usually end up finding a new workout routine, recipe, or piece of advice that further inspires me to get my sweat on!

2.Create a game plan for your workout
If I don’t start my workout with a game plan, I lose focus and inevitably don’t get the best results. Let’s just say, there has been more than one occasion when I’ve wandered aimlessly around the gym and made half-hearted attempts at exercising. Now, I make sure to plan exactly what I’m going to do during my workout– whether it’s a 30-minute interval run  on the treadmill or a Full body cross fit inspired workout– so I have a plan of attack, which helps me stay focused and motivated throughout my workout.

3.Listen to your playlist before you start your workout
Music is a great way to pump me up for a sweat session, but I sometimes find that I have trouble even starting my workout. The solution: Playing upbeat tunes (I love dance music) before I start working out. The music gives me a boost and helps me power through my workout!
