The Insanity Max Interval Sports Training DVD is for you if you like to do extremely difficult exercises! The Max Interval Sports are more intense than the other exercises as seen on the Insanity base 10 DVD program. With this DVD, Shaun T. trains you with many of the same exercises he uses to train professional athletes – after all, Shaun is a former track star, so watch out on this one!
Shaun T. starts the Interval Sports training with a 6 minutes warm up, starting with invisible jump rope and moving through switch heel with heel taps to the floor while keeping the core tight. The side-to-side jump rope moves work your whole body, even warming up your biceps with the invisible jump rope motions.
Next are some interesting moves that I never saw before! But, I can tell you they warm up all the parts of your body. These insane moves range from pulling your knees up high to warm up the hip flexors and core, and backward knee pulls with a hand to floor. Shaun T. gives you an Insanity warm up that will make you feel like you are doing the actual workout. But that is just the beginning!
When the warm-up circuit is complete, Shaun T. takes you through the whole Insanity warm-up again – just faster!
Next, you head into the Max Interval Sports training exercises with boxing moves like intense jabs across. This is not your Mother’s jabs! Remember this is Shaun t. You then do a series of jabs and uppercuts where you use an insane level of power to push through each jab and uppercut. Then Shaun pushes you through combining jabs with Shaun T. style power jumps!
The MAX Interval Sports Training workout continues with Football Drills, Guard drills, Suicide drills, Basketball moves and Pike Jumps. When you think you had enough, you get to a series of Insane Ab routines that will burn your core and make you sweat!
My favorite is the V-Pushup, where you get your body into a Downward dog type position on your toes and do pushup, head first. What an intense shoulder workout! You continue doing a series of extremely intense intervals that will push you further than any other DVD included in the Insanity series of workout! Insanity Max Interval Sports training DVD is the longest and most intense.
Just when you have a few minutes left and think you are winding down, Shaun gets you doing crazy long jumps combined with jogging. The workout finishes up nicely with 4 minutes of cool down stretching.
MAX Interval Sports Training is the most challenging workout in the Insanity fitness program. Saying that you will be pushed to the maximum is an understatement. Make sure you have lots of water on hand. Shaun T. is an excellent trainer, motivating you to complete each exercise and use good form every time!

I did a search on the Internet to find out the average price of any random fitness DVD. The average price is $14.95 – $29.95 for a single workout DVD. Many of the fitness DVDs I found will not give you near the intense and amazing workout you get with Shaun T! So, $14.95 is extremely reasonable for each of the extreme fitness DVDs you get with Insanity Deluxe.
Let’s take a look at the 3 DVDs that come with Insanity Deluxe. You be the judge and decide which Insanity package is for you.
Insanity Deluxe includes:
- 10 DVDs from the base kit
- Elite Nutrition Plan – designed to fuel your body for these intense workouts.
- Fitness Guide – short and to the point. It’s just the information you need. We want you working out—not reading.
- INSANITY™ Calendar – organized into month 1 & month 2 to track your progress, set workout goals, and keep you motivated. Plus, the Fit Test Tracker tracks your results as you watch your body transform before your eyes.
You also get these 3 workouts:
- MAX Interval Sports Training – Shaun T, a former track star, designed these workouts for elite athletes. The MAX Interval Training exercises are extremely difficult to do. These exercises are far over and above the intense exercises seen on the 10 DVDs. If you want a REAL challenge, this is it. Get pushed to your absolute max as Shaun pushes you through the same moves he uses to train professional athletes. Read our review of Insanity Max Interval Sports Training.
- Insane Abs – Although there are ab exercises included in the 10 DVD set, this 33 minute insane ab routine will take you to new levels of ab training. You start with a crazy 5 minute warmup that will challenge you with moves like Power Jumps, and T-Kicks. Next, you do all the exercises on the floor without ever laying down! Can you balance on your buttocks like a V shape and then do all sorts of moves that hit your abs from all directions? I barely made it throught the first few times but it’s fun and does a great job of toning the abs.
- Upper-Body Weight Training – Go one on one with Shaun to work your chest, back, arms, and shoulders. These are not quite the traditional upper body moves that you are familiar with. You don’t just do chest press … you do chest press with head and shoulders off the bench to work your abs at the same time. Shaun goes through the workouts like a circuit. When you come back around to the first one, you increase the weights and decrease the repetitions. Shaun T’s upper body weight training workout is 43 minutes of pushing yourself through tough moves. Read our review of Insanity Upper Body Weight Training.
Insanity Deluxe packages the original 10 DVDs in a separate DVD holder then the additional 3 DVDs. The 3 DVDs come in two packages. One holds Insane Abs and MAX Interval Training, and a separate sleeve holds the Upper Body Weight Training DVD.
Is Insanity Deluxe worth it? Absolutely. You will love the extra 3 DVDs.

Achieving tight, toned abs may seem like an insurmountable task, but this goal can be accomplished by following either P90X Ab Ripper X or INSANITY Insane Abs. Ab Ripper X is included with Tony Horton’s P90X fitness DVDs and Insane Abs is included with Shaun T’s INSANITY Deluxe fitness DVDs.
Awesome abs are not impossible, anyone can get them, it just takes commitment, know-how, and a good fitness program to follow.
So which one should you do to get great looking abs? Both Ab Ripper X and Insane Abs will push you hard, make you sweat, and feel like torture! For both fitness programs, your abs will burn and you may not even be able to complete each exercise when you first get started. But if you stick with either program, you will feel great and love your new set of abs!
Read my reviews of Ab Ripper X and Insane Abs.
Let’s take a look at the difference between Ab Ripper X and Insane Abs.
Ab Ripper X
P90X Ab Ripper X is 15 minutes of intense abdominal exercises. On starting, you launch right into “In and Outs”, the first of 11 abdominal exercises at 25 repetitions each. Each exercise is performed on a mat and there are NO breaks.
With Ab Ripper X, you will do ab exercises that are most likely familiar to you, like Seated Bicycle, Crossed Leg Wide Leg Sit Up, Fifer Scissor, and Oblique V-Ups. Tony Horton saved one of the hardest exercises for last, Mason Twist. So after feeling your abs burn like crazy and wishing you were finished, you get to do 40 more repetitions!
The time goes fast, Tony explains each exercise and is easy to follow. He also makes it fun and is motivating.

Insane Abs
INSANITY Insane Abs is 33 minutes of taking your abs to new levels that you never knew existed! On starting, you launch into a standing up warm up that will test your physical abilities! You can expect a full 5 minutes of cardio such as running in place with high knees and adding an upper body twist, and plyometric moves. If that is not enough to tire you out, Shaun T. introduces Tuck Jumps, Power Jumps, and T-Kicks.
The next set of exercises are performed on the floor and there is NO laying down .Can you balance on your buttocks with legs raised out in front and upper body at an angle (chest and head up)! That is the base position for the remaining exercises. You do exercises that are probably not familiar to you like Power Abs. Balance on your buttocks with legs bent and wide, upper body off the floor at a high angle. Now, bring your knees towards your chest and keep your hands in the air!
Insane Abs core exercises will do you in. And it does not end there. Shaun completes the routine with Oblique Rotations and Low Plank Hops from plank position.
Focusing hard on achieving each exercises makes the time go fast. Shaun T. explains and shows you how to do each exercise and is very motivating.
