So I currently weigh 224, 32yrs, female, 5'2.. I took the fit test yesterday and today started with the workout program. I was able to complete 20 minutes of it. Wondering if I am nuts for trying this at my weight..

I would say.... just do the best you can do. Don't try and keep up them... just do what YOU can do.

I started in the mid 190's at 5'7.5". Do what you can do, and you'll see amazing results:)0

do what you can, you dont have to keep up with the ppl in the vid...
ive heard alot of complaints about sore knees...
just really concentrate on form and do what you can
but PUSH yourself, dont cheat yuourself out or sell yourself short, u can do this!0 -
I just did the fit test yesterday and my first workout today- it's a lot harder than the bike riding and weight lifting I've been doing for the last four months for sure. But with the bike riding I started out a little rough in January and I just pushed myself a little harder and a little farther each day. I still remember the spot I quit and turned around on the first ride- it's pretty close to my house and when I pass it now I'm barely getting warmed up. I'm taking the same approach with Insanity- just pushing myself and doing the best I can and working for improvement.0

I don't think it's a good idea since there is a lot of jumping but if you want to do it.
Get a high impact foam mat ( I got 1 at walmart for $18), it helps protect your knees.
Charlean Turbo Fire also does burn lots of fat and she does not jump much. Check her out, you may like it.0
