I have recently started doing insanity and in the past week I have noticed a 3 ound sudden weight gain even though I have been eating clean. Could somebosy help me in understanding this. Does this happen with the workout? Is this the muscles responding?
If so, I hope I am not expecting too much weight comming back. I want to loose weight and look lean.

Please help! Thanx

    Adding in exercise will cause your muscles to temporarily hold onto extra water to repair themselves. As long as you are maintaining your calorie goal, you will be fine.

    I have been doing the Insanity workout for 3 weeks now, and had the same result. Once you reach the middle of week two you will start to notice a difference. I am in the middle of week 3 and dropped the initial weight gain plus 5lbs. Stay with it, you will find you can keep up with the exercises and the weight will come off!!!! Good Luck!!

    Get a tape measure. I noticed a little inch movement after week 1.
