Honestly a great idea is test running each workout. Just to get used to the moves and get used to format. I always do that w/ my Shaun T DVDs.
You know I always hybrid my Insanity with lifting, but Max 30 is one that I highly recommend following the schedule/calendar because it gets your mind in such a good place. The only DVD I switched out from Month 1 was Tabata Power. Some really love it, but I found it just a tad too easy for a strength day, so I did Tabata Strength each time where the Tabata Power/Strength was in the calendar. Tabata Strength is harder, IMO.
Nonetheless - I found doing this one with a full calendar was one of the best things I've ever done. Made me feel younger. I was stronger. My mental game improve by numbers I cannot calculate. And that helped me lifting afterward because I knew I had another level every time I was in the gym.
I just cannot wait to hear your results once it's said and done. If you have the time, post your daily workout max out times/thoughts. And if you start it on a specific date, I might just re-start it, because I'm getting quite bored in the gym with powerlifting and building strength.
Not sure if I will follow the schedule because I always found the insanity strength training workouts lacking for what I want to do. I assume it is all body weight strength training like in the original series?
I will look over the workouts and see what workouts I can sub in on my cardio days. I will likely do three max 30 workouts a week, so I need to find what will really leave me dripping.
It looks like again, with the original insanity vids how they have two phases of videos... I assume the max out videos are the hardest? I.e. Max out cardio, max out sweat, max out strength, etc.
