Hi
Most of you guys will be aware that i used to teach martial arts, in fact in my late teens and early twenty's i was heavily into training and i always felt quite healthy for my age.
Back to the present date i have now stopped teaching martial arts and in fact for the last 4 months i even stopped jogging and still i felt i was quite fit for my age(47).
My wife decided to purchase one of those home help fitness dvd and she gave this to me, i  laughed as i read how this would transform your lifestyle and fitness levels in 60 days it even went on to declare that this was the hardest training session on the market.
I am game for anything so being bored i decided to give it a try(after all how hard could it be).
I am pleased to say that i completed my 60 day training yesterday and holy mother it was f**king awesome.
I have tried various martial arts i have  ran a half marathon i have always done some sort of exercise most of my life but i have never endured such bone crunching soul sapping exercises as what i have just completed.
The name of this dvd is Insanity and it is hosted by  Shaun T and it uses virtually no equipment.
You can do this in your own home in 40 Min's a day .You train 6 days a week and you have the option of using th diet sheet.
My obvious question is ; has any of you guys used this dvd? have any of you guys used any home fitness dvd?

Haven't seen it dude and I haven't ever tried any other fitness DVD type workouts. But seeing as I am bored, unfit and have the body of a ten year old girl, I might give it a whirl.

Never did that one, but my wife has gotten be on some Exercise TV cross training videos... Jillian Michaels reduced me to a whimpering heap, and in the exercise way,and a couple other ones really got me working out.  So I fully understand.
