A friend is lending me her insanity dvds. I know it's extreme and really hard, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips for me?

    Love insanity!

    Love shaun t.

    Do the fit test, see how you get on, but if you're sedentary currently you might want to try something else before jumping into insanity

    Consider your food timing when doing these. They are high intensity and plyometric heavy so I wouldn't eat within at least an hour, probably two before going at these. I did Insanity in a fasted state first thing in the morning and didn't have issues, plus I felt like I earned breakfast by the end of it.

    I'm not sure of my activity level. I think I average about 14,000 steps a day (thank you Fitbit)

    Also. How would I log this? I don't have a HR monitor.
