I am 25yo 170cm x 57kg and I like run
I started running 3 years ago, because I wanted to lose weight, so after few months I get rid of 25kg~, after that I continued running more seriously, and I improved and improved...
Actually I run about 250km/month and my 10Km personal best in 39:30..
I workout about 5day/week plus, sometimes on saturday or sunday I practice some low intensity trekking or MTB...
In the summer I "run" some trail/skytrail...
I have a nice form, but nothing "extreme", I'm lightweight I can feel the ABS under my skin but I cannot see it...
Lately I feel like I'm annoying to run so I skipped few workouts, and loosen my general form so I would like to try Insanity or P90X workout, for the reasons above and also for a challenge against myself
My main goal is to improve myself without losing much "running form", and if it's possible improve it, and get a better muscle definition!
Between the two (Insanity - P90X), I'm more like towards the first one, mainly because it's more cardio/fitness related and I do not need tools...
here's the questions, assuming my form and my routine
- Do you prefer Insanity or P90X?
- Do you suggest to continue running instead of Insanity?
- Switching from running to Insanity/P90X workout could give a benefits or rather than that worsen my "running" form? (speaking of endurance/speed/etc)
Let's assume I switch to Insanity, I can run/MTB/Trekking as well as doing the daily workout? (not every day, and not stressful exercises)
UPDATE
I like the weight I am (last time I checked (september) I had 5.5% body fat), I would like to get a better body definition and, as I said, improve my endurance/speed etc
Said so, acutally I did not have a particular diet, although I did it in in the past.
My regular routine is: eat 5 times a day, breakfast/morning meal/lunch/afternoon meal/dinner, drink about 1lt water in the morning, 1lt water in the afternoon and 1/2lt tea/water in the evening
I live in italy, I have a well rounded diet, I eat everything and especially a lot of vegetables...
I don't mind to write the entire diet but I do not want to be lengthy...
I think that the main problem, for me, to completly follow a program like Insanity or P90X is to strictly abide the diet, I live with other people and it could be difficult to manage a particular diet routine, sometimes they just cook something and having a different meal isn't a possibility...
