Options
So this is my third time attempting the Insanity 60 day routine. I am determined to finish it this time!! Did the Fit Test this morning, oh man I thought I was going to vomit!! After an hour though I felt great, I am so excited to do this!! Anyone else wanting to get on this too?? I know there are a few of you out there already!! I will post result pictures after the first 30 days Ü There, now there is no turning back!

    I actually plan on starting this up as soon as I'm done with Jillian's 30-Day Shred routine. I'm about halfway done so will be starting Insanity Fit Test soon. Yeah, i watched most of it and it looks crazy intense. I'll probably feel like i'm going to vomit too when i'm done but i know it will show results. How can it not, right? :-)

    Wow you are awesome! I bet it is a lot easier for you now than when you first started huh? I know I just got to get through the first few weeks before I feel better.

    dmisom79 - I think its better to start Insanity after you have done another work out routine, because then you aren't so out of shape, like me! The Jillian 30 day shred looks awesome too I will have to try it once I am done with this craziness.

    Forgot to mention, this is also my 3rd time attempting to finish and this is the farthest I've gotten lol. The first time I did it was last May and I only got to finish Month 1 and then I started again in October and only finished up to the 1st week of Month 2 (holiday's/birthday's/and a deployment kept me busy). Since last May until now I've lost a total of 12 inches on my body and all the weight I've lost on that ticker of mine is just from this round of Insanity so far. Watching what you eat plays a HUGE roll in how you feel during the day.

    I'm just finishing up the 2nd week of the first month. It's my first attempt. I love doing it. These crazy workouts are perfect for me. I got so hyped after the fit test that I decided to jump on my elliptical and do more cardio. After starting the main routines, I realized that I've been doing similar types of exercises in my prison workout routines. Haha.

    Phil- Wow you wanted to do MORE?! Ugh I wish I had that energy level! faeryluvr- you are doing awesome! I know its hard to finish a series like these, life gets so busy. I am really going to try to do this all the way through without missing. I have my in-laws coming in a week for a week , and then I am off to California to visit my parents for a few days, I am going to take it with me and work out there (hopefully)

    I sure did. I still do actually. Insanity became a supplementary all-over body HIIT routine for cardio, as opposed to just using the elliptical for cardio. The damn plyo kills me, but I'm getting significant results in such a short amount of time.

    I think it would benefit you to go to teambeachbody and find a group that just started Insanity and get in with them.

    I'm on my 4th week of the 1st month. How bad is the second month compared to the first? I'm managing about 80-90% of the workouts right now.

    I have heard (I have not gotten to the second half yet) that the second half is brutal, but I think at that point you kind of need the change anyway, and like in the beginning, you will adapt to it. If you call "adapting" not vomiting after every work out, lol.

    I'm on week 3 of the 2nd month. The workouts are definitely tougher and longer. I thought I was used to it by the end of Month 1, but whoa... Month 2 kicks your *kitten*.

    I had a baby a year ago, and 155 was my "settled" weight. After you have a baby most of your weight is just water and the baby basically so 155 was after all that was gone. I have been working out on and off for the past year. For about 2 weeks I did a cleanse I guess you could call it where all I ate was fruit and that helped a lot. I think my body was still getting rid of the baby weight so it came off pretty easy. I did P90X while I lost that weight. These pounds I have left are a little more stubborn Ü
