If you’re fit, Plyo X will get you fitter. That having been said, it’s hard to say how much of that your body can take without your knees going all to jello. In terms of overall intensity, Max Plyo whoops Plyo X like the Ultimate Warrior beating down a senior citizen. When I first did Plyo X I thought it impossible to ask a human body to do more, but that sadistic Shaun T must have heard me. Tony on the other hand attacks the upper body using the pull-up bar in the process. The Insanity version adds a lot of cardio, but that sometimes is not what you want when doing your strength training. Both routines attack similar muscle groups and will leave you feeling trashed. In terms of similar workouts, only Upper Body+ from the P90X+ expansion pack compares. Yet one strength workout option compared to the vast abundance of P90X is just no contest. But make no mistake, Insanity Upper Body is an intense circuit training workout that is simply to good to ever ignore. Insanity Upper Body Strength vs P90X Chest+Back, Back+Biceps, Legs+Back, Shoulders+Armsįor sheer options, P90X takes the easy win here. WINNER: Insanity Max Cardio Recovery/Core Cardio Balance That having been said, don’t feel like you can just ignore Yoga X as to do so is at your peril! The good news is that much of Cardio Recovery has yoga style moves in it as well as balance and core so in a way you get the best of both worlds with Insanity. The main advantage is the length of time, as 1.5 hours for Yoga X just makes the routine too hard to fit into a weekly schedule.

I’m going to have a professional hit on me for saying this, but Max Cardio Recovery and Core Cardio and Balance squeak out on top when it comes to a day off routine that stretches you and gets you ready for the next day.

Max Cardio Recovery/Core Cardio and Balance vs. That will be my angle as Tony and Shaun load their pistols, take twenty paces and shoot! I have managed to complete both systems without dying in the process so I am ready to give my conclusions. This is understandable as Insanity is a heavily focused on plyometrics, whil e P90X tries to have a little bit of everything. There are many sites that compare the overall differences between the two, but few if any that take a one on one workout comparison approach.
