Hello everyone!

I am doing my second round of INSANITY and I never followed the Elite Nutrition before, but I am trying to follow it this time. I wanted to know how many of you out there have followed it and what your results were like? I had amazing results with just INSANITY but I think if I follow the nutrition guide I might see better results.

Its a higher calorie intake than MFP has for me but after I add in my workout cal I always have around 1700 -2000 cal for the day, depending on how much I burn.

Soo, let me know what you think!

    Sorry to be a doofus, but I don't know what Elite Nutrition or INSANITY are. Just curious. Thanks!

    I'm following both INSANITY and kind of the Elite Nutrition. I'm eating the amount of calories that the book recommended, and I look to the book for meal ideas when I can't come up with anything. :) I'm only through with week one, and the scale has already dropped three pounds. It's probably not all fat, but it's better than gaining.. and all at eating 2040/day.

    My nutrition is elite enough already without following the nutrition guide. I consider the BB guides as suggestions for those who aren't familiar with healthy alternatives for meals. But try following it and see if it's noticeable. Couldn't hurt.

    Check it out!! Insanity is the most intense workout that you will likely ever do. The only workout I've ever done that was even remotely close was when I was doing regular box fit class.

    See if you had a coach you could ask them this question :wink:

    Anyway when I did the calculations for me with the EN it had me at around 3300 calories. There was no way I could get any where close to eating that many calories. I did however use the book for meal ideas.
