I've done three rounds. If you're looking to get lean/ripped, they will do the trick. If you're looking to maintain muscle mass while getting ripped, good luck with that. Very intense workouts, probably harder than most are used to. It's pure cardio.

Ah, pure cardio is not what I'm looking for. Thanks.

One of my co-workers does them. She says they kick her butt, but she enjoys them. Somehow she still has enough energy to run 3-4 miles during lunch at work 3 times a week.

Try Insanity Asylum if you're looking for a cardio/strength mixture. It is only a 30 day program but you'll get results.

You probably could retain some kind of semblance of mass on this program if you did a hybrid and incorporated 3 days of Insanity, 3 days of heavy lifting. The cardio in this is pretty intense though and as a stand alone will likely eat up hard earned muscle.
