Not if you eat crap...and too much of it.

The problem with these programs is that they program failure. You go full tilt for 90 days, maybe lose some fat if you accidentally (or purposely) follow a good diet...and then what? keep going at 100 mph for the rest of your life?

It's a setup for long term failure. Actually I know a few people who did Insanity and p90x. They either didn't make it for 2 weeks, or did make it through -- and are now fat again because it was just a temporary band aid to their fitness problem. Just the very nature of it creates a mentality which doesn't foster long term sustainability. Work you ass off for a couple of months and have the body you always wanted -- until you inevitably stop and have no idea what to do to maintain the new body.

you can get shredded with moderate exercise and a good diet. Might take a little longer but the results will stay with you.
