User questions & answers

Question:	Would equipment do you need
Answer:	So far I'm still working on Section 1. It's approximately 25 to 30 minutes. If you need a more precise answer, I'll time it the next time I do it.
Question:	Is it for someone really overweight
Answer:	Mine DVD sounds good. It may have been a bad DVD
Question:	I have a small space to workout in, and a low ceiling fan. Will this routine be ok with those space restrictions
Answer:	He's teaching one move with short music and then goes on to teach another move. At the end of the DVD, there is a complete song utilizing all of the steps that were learned.
Question:	How long are the workouts
Answer:	I received one (1) DVD that reads on back cover - "Two Easy-To-Follow Dance-Fitness Workouts". Maybe someone misunderstood to mean two DVDs. Workouts are both on one DVD.

User questions & answers

Question:	How much room do you need to move around for these workouts
Answer:	It will work on your bluray. I have the Insanity DVD and it works on my bluray. Thinking about ordering this as well.
Question:	Does this require jumping? I have a bad ankle and would prefer something like Body Pump where they don't include jumping exercises
Answer:	The workouts average about 30 min each and the schedule has you working out about 6 days on, 1 day off, give or take. I hope this helps and I hope you are working out with Jody soon! ~Stephanie from X-TrainFit
Question:	What would the comparison of these videos to insanity
Answer:	Not As focused on building muscle as Body Beast. I like the RIPT programs, but the workouts aren’t as long or as intense, from a weightlifting perspective. I think RIPT does give better core work and there feels like more overall conditioning. For example, on program called Hard Core Chest alternates chest and core exercises. So body building goes to Body Beast, more core and total body fitness goes to the RIPT programs, based on my experience.
Question:	Do you need any equipment
Answer:	I think it depends on your goals. RIPT90 was more cardio-core focused. FIT has a greater strength training emphasis, though you will burn calories and work your core. There’s not as much of an ab focus in FIT and I found I needed to add some of my own. I liked FIT for the strength aspect and would do that again before the original.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this involve a lot of jumping? I live in an apartment with squeaky floors so I want something low impact to do at home
Answer:	I wouldn't say jumping as in bouncing/both feet off the ground. You do switch feet and move around quite a bit, so if you have sensitive neighbors you might want a different or outdoor workout plan. I'm small and lightweight so I'm pretty low impact, but I do the workout for the cardio benefits.
Question:	what kind of music does this dvd have
Answer:	All the music is upbeat and covers a wide range of genres: disco, rock, Brazilian, African, classical! It's a great workout, easy to follow and uses every mussel in your body including your face - Kenn Kihiu's smile and personality is infections and you can't help smiling back!
Question:	Does the bonus nutrition video really helps to lose weight
Answer:	Alas, no video will really help you lose weight. The only thing that works--and none of us need a DVD to tell us this--is moving more every day, eating less everyday, and making sure most of your calories come from healthy whole foods. That's what I did, and lost 60 pounds and kept it off. Good luck!
Question:	How long is the main workout
Answer:	I think around 40 minutes for workout and about a 7 minute ab workout.I havent really timed it exactly

Question:	Is the instructors voice of poor quality or might it have been a bad DVD
Answer:	If you want to gain muscle, I would suggest doing more of a weight lifting program like P90X. In the Insanity program, you do not use any weights, but will use your own body weight. you will likely increase your cardiovascular strength but the program does not use any weights, so you will not bulk up muscle at all. Hope that helps you out
Question:	Are the work-out sections done to a complete song or is he just teaching one move with short music and then goes to teach another move
Answer:	Hi April, I think they are different. I have tried P90x and I didn't care for it. I had the bands to work with however were other equipment I didn't have that really made it hard to do the whole DVD. I wouldn't say one is better than the other I would just say which one is right for you. I really need to build up my cardio and that is what Insanity is doing for me. I also feel like insanity goes faster. I am already tired after the warm up but the DVD seems to go by faster. With P90X it seemed to drag but that could just be me. I haven't done P90x in almost 2 years.
