Am I crazy to use weighted gloves with Turbo Fire? I am on my last month of of the schedule and feel pretty good as far as the workouts go. I know all the moves and can follow pretty much with my eyes closed with some serious intensity. The problem is as I am dropping weight I am noticing I am not burning calories like I used to even when I push harder.

So I wanted to try and add some extra resistance during the workout and see if that would help me burn a little more during the work outs. Am I crazy for doing this when I am still out of shape?

    Absolutely not crazy. You're obviously not out of shape to be pushing yourself with more intensity. I supplement Insanity with even more HIIT cardio routines on my elliptical. Plus I do all day prison workout routines. I think I'm more crazy for doing it, and even then, I want to add more to my regimen. Haha. Do you. As long as it's workin' for you, it's all G.
