Insanity P90X Hybrid Workout Schedule Calendar

We recently compared Insanity VS P90X, and it reminded me of how effective both programs are! I am not one to pick a favorite anything – so naturally, I created a P90x Insanity Hybrid Schedule!

I’m such a Tony Horton and P90X fan. I love his personality, variety of the workouts and his yoga! On the other hand, my husband doesn’t like his corny jokes and wants just an extreme workout. Needless to say, he loves Shaun T’s Insanity program. In an attempt to get the most out of both workouts, I created us a P90X Insanity Hybrid!

What’s the Difference in the Insanity and P90X Schedule?

The whole Insanity program is cardio-based.

You won’t need any weights or equipment for the workout, but you will need enough space to move side to side and do a plank. Insanity uses max interval training and your own body resistance to help you burn fat and gain muscle definition (versus muscle mass).

Each Insanity interval workout is around 40-60 minutes.

P90X fitness focuses on variety; each week you are mixing strength, cardio, and balance.

Tony wants you to improve in all areas of fitness with P90X. Consequently, you will be lifting weights one day then going all out doing a cardio workout the next day. Then he’ll challenge your balance with yoga and your core with Ab Ripper.

While Insanity is 60 days, P90X is a full 3 months so you do have a few more workouts in the P90X calendar.

The fitness programs are advanced workouts and have similar meal plans.

Each workout program have some high-impact moves and change workouts each month. Both home workouts challenge you in a new way to keep shocking your body creating muscle confusion. This is a good because it keeps challenging your body which means you’ll work harder and see results faster.

My husband, Jake, lost 40lbs with Insanity! You can read more about his story and the program here.

How to Get The Most From This P90X Insanity Hybrid

1. Schedule Workouts. Either workout is 40-60 minutes so put them on your calendar otherwise, you may be tempted to skip. Tell your family for this hour you’re working out and not to disturb you unless someone is bleeding or dying.
2. Modify Each Workout to Suit Your Needs. Each workout contains advanced exercises and, consequently, high-impact moves. Listen to your body and focus on having good form.
3. Plan Your Meals Ahead of Time. You are going to be working out like an athlete. You have to eat like one too in order to see results with either program or the hybrid.
4. Give it Your All! It’s 2-3 months – so you have to either commit and go all in or your results will suffer. It won’t be easy so commit early on and remind yourself why you started this.
5. Find Support. Tell your friends what you’re doing or find an online challenge like our 21 Day Challenge for additional accountability and motivation.
6. Submit your Insanity or P90X results. Knowing I am going to take a before and after picture always motivates me and consequently keeps me on track even when I want a twinkie or something.

Also, remember the P90X Insanity hybrid is intense, and you should follow both program’s health protocol.

So Which Do You Like P90X or Insanity?

If you’re wanting to lose the most weight and develop lean muscle, then I would suggest Insanity. It’s 60 days versus 90 and focuses on cardio and body-weight resistance training which will help you hit your goals.

If you’re seeking more muscle mass with a balanced approach to fitness, then I would suggest P90X.

Neither program is a bad choice, and if you’re not sure you can always try this hybrid schedule below.
