Hi guys-

I was wondering if i would be over working out if I were going to the gym for 1 hr and doing insanity for about an hr everyday for 5 days a week. I feel that I workout and burn more calories with insanity vs going to the gym (except for those days when I workout with my personal trainer).

    Sure why not? Since Insanity is a lot of cardio you might want to do more weights at the gym and some cardio. If you have the time you might as well do both.

    I think too much workout is causing me to gain weight instead of losing weight.

    I to have wondered that, I have done the 30 day shred and then hit the gym. Since Insanity is cardio, you could just go to the gym to do your strength training, which is sooooooooo much fun.
