While Insanity and Brazil Butt Lift produce impressive results in terms of weight loss, both Beachbody workout programs do differ in style, target areas, as well as intensity. Understanding the major differences can aid in choosing the program that best serves your individual weight loss and fitness goals.
1) Style
Insanity utilizes cardio and plyometric exercises to increase the heart rate as part of hardcore, high impact interval training. The ultimate goal is to burn as much fat as possible by burning a maximum amount of calories during the workouts.
Brazil Butt Lift, on the other hand, incorporates less cardio in favor of weight training to create more muscles mass that will help you burn more calories even when resting. As a result, the metabolism starts running in high gear pretty much 24/7.
2) Target areas
Contrary to popular belief, Brazil Butt Lift actually reshapes the entire body rather than just the booty. Especially stubborn fat cells in the notorious female problem areas of butt, thighs and hips will be attacked with precision exercises from three different angles as part of Leandro Carvalho's triangle method. Even Insanity graduates will feel the burn in their buns.
Insanity effectively carves out the much coveted six-pack while creating shapely calves that will be the envy of men and women alike. Thighs and arms will also get a tune-up to enhance your athletic performance.
3) Intensity
Insanity will turn you into the athlete you never were. In other words, it significantly increases endurance, speed and agility by pushing you past your limits. Needless to say, fitness newbies might find this program too challenging. People with any kind of physical ailments or an obese BMI should also stay clear of Insanity to avoid serious injury.
Brazil Butt Lift will get your heart rate up and challenge your muscles. But unlike with Insanity, the risk of injury for people who are new to working out is extremely low. Most BBL exercises are low- to no-impact which makes it perfect for heavier and older people who want to avoid incurring any knee and back problems.
Ultimately, both workout programs produce solid weight loss results when used with their respective nutrition guides and workout schedules. In addition, Beachbody offers free coaching and support on the official Team Beachbody web site for anyone using the company's workout programs.
