In one of my last posts I told you what I love best about my top 10 favorite Beachbody programs. Now, I’m sharing the very best workouts from those great fitness programs.
These satisfyingly tough workouts are the ones that have really helped me transform my body – and my whole way of thinking about fitness in general – well beyond what I ever thought possible, so how could I not love them?
If you’re thinking about trying one of the programs – or investing in Beachbody on Demand, which gives you access to a many of the top-rated programs for one low monthly price – these hard-core workouts should help you decide if one, or maybe all of them, is right for you.

The Best Beachbody Workouts
1. Max Out Power (Insanity Max:30)
Interval training at its best, this challenge-packed workout uses plyometrics to push you past your comfort zone. Way past!
The 45-seconds on, 15-seconds off routine is brutal, but the benefits will show in improved strength and endurance, especially when you can make it through the whole thing.

If you ever wondered how far you could push yourself, this is the workout that will let you know. Part cardio, part strength training, it’s fast-paced and seriously tough.
No doubt, you’ll “max out,” but you’ll find yourself pushing your body – and your mind – to try again, and that’s when you’ll start seeing real results.
