What we understand: Track stars have fantastic bodies. What previous 400-meter hurdler Shaun Thompson understands: how you can get one! The trainer, aka Shaun T., developed Insanity, a 10-disc DVD series ($120; BeachBody.com), so effective that it turned a word for lunacy into a synonym for shaped. The magic behind the routine comes from plyometrics: explosive, full-body workouts that rev your heart rate and ratchet up metabolic process to torch megacalories and build lean muscle. We asked Thompson to pick his top multitasking transfer to help you get an outrageous body in just 20 minutes. In as couple of as 2 weeks, your streamlined physique will be what's triggering the mania.
