    burned to DVD, they won't run in my DVD player or on my laptop (Win7).
    But they will play on Mr. RK's laptop.

    I need some sort of converter or something.

    I wonder if you copy all the files on that DVD locally to your hard drive, if you can use "Windows DVD Maker", and burn it in a format that will work on your laptop.

    Yeah that's my thing...I get bored very easily and since I already did Insanity I think Asylum might not motivate me. I honestly feel like I want to just go right into P90x2 because the first one might bore me too...crazy?

    p90x def gets boring around month 3...but at that point you really start to see some awesome changes so it's easy to stick to it at that point. Going through the program a second time was tough for me. The exercises were easier, but having to watch those videos over again... not fun!
    I've read that p90x2 has tougher workouts and shouldn't be a starting point for most...unless you're already in decent shape.
    Do you want to trade? I can send you my p90x discs if you send me Insanity? :)

    I'm pretty fit ;)

    Yeah actually that would be awesome - but the Insanities I have were all burned from someone else...so as long as you're okay with that!

    Oh, I don't mind if they are burned. All the discs are there right?

    Text or PM me your address.

    Mamasan...I'm sure you know, but you'll need some weights or bands for p90x. Pull up bar is optional as long as you can mount the bands to a door.

    Yep they're all there - and all the schedules and fit test tables are all on a disc too, so you can just print them out.

    And I do have weights and bands - I don't really have a door to mount anything to where I work out in my house tho, will that be really detrimental to it?

    :fp: I work out in my living room, which is a huge open space that leads into my hallway - no doors. Unless I want to move my whole setup into my basement, which I'm just not going to do :lol:

    I like Insanity better than P90X. P90X gets boring soon and with Insanity you don't have time to think, let alone get bored. And, it is so freaking intense, love it. Only bad thing with insanity for me is that my joints hurt and get stiff in the morning. Getting down the stairs after I wake up is quite awkward.

    When I want shorter workouts, but also intense I go and do one of this http://www.youtube.com/user/ZuzkaLight
