in Motivation and Support
I decided that I want to give it all I've got and finally try doing Insanity with the meal plan.. minus Shakeology. (I'll take EAS whey protein, though). I finished 30 Day Shred a few days ago, and I hope I'm ready to bump it up..! I'm also going to purchase a heart rate monitor very soon.. I just need to pick one.

Definitely need some motivation buddies to start this mission with me! :happy:

Who's in?!

    GOOD LUCK!! I have done it twice already. It's definitely going to get you where you want to be if you actually stick to it! I would do it again with you, but starting Saturday I'm doing to P90x/Insanity hybrid.

    We started Insanity a couple of months ago then my bf broke his toe so he couldn't do it for a little while. We're also trying to start a family and I'm just not sure it's a good idea for me to do while trying. I plan to talk to my doc about it tomorrow, though. We did it for about 6 weeks and saw results for sure. I really enjoyed it, althought it totally kicked our butts!!!!! Good luck!!!!!

    Ladies and Gentlemen,
    INSANITY is no joke! Neither is it for the faint at heart! I am an old (former NCAA D-1 Track & Field) Athlete and so is Sean (I forget his last name). He's also played football. The work out is a joy for those who don't mind pushing themselves to the limit in an unconventional sort of way.

    Because my siblings were also big time athletes and all in different sports, I recognized all of the different 'drills' that were used. Basketball, football, track & field drills are all combined in a high energy workout. I honestly only made it through the first 15 days. I decided that the next time I do it I'll be better prepared.

    I have a small, old house. 8' ceilings don't quite cut it for the INSANITY work outs. You need space and high ceilings to feel comfortable and get the most from the workouts. In short, the videos are shot in a gymnasium and I now understand why. I'd love to do it with you, BUT I just started a 28 yoga based detox cleanse and weight loss program. So I'm committed to finishing. In fact, after my 28 days of yoga based practices, I might be better able to tackle Sean T and his INSANE, INSANITY work outs.

    Good luck!
