Insanity: Max 30
The long awaited (for me at least) Insanity: Max 30 has arrived. I am a big Shaun T fan. I have Insanity and Asylum 1 (review of Asylum should go up in March--at least that is my current plan) but that is all. I didn't want to get Asylum 2 until I did Asylum 1 … Continue reading Insanity: Max 30
Tapout XT
I have been wanting the Tapout XT workouts for a very long time but they were expensive (according to their website the program is cheaper now than it used to be, but still more than I want to pay).

For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post.
