What other exercise do people do along with Insanity? On week 3 and I have only been doing Insanity, I feel I want to start running again as I really enjoy it and always have. My wife has signed us both up for an introduction at the local Gym, I would like to use the treadmill there. How often should I go? I don't want to compromise the Insanity workouts that I do each morning, but would love to increase my fitness and go to the Gym in the evening. Any advice appreciated!

    I play football every Saturday and although I am a member of a gym I haven''t been since I started insanity. I will probably start back there next week, just a couple of times a week to do a bit of strength training. Would imagine it can only help - plus jacuzzi and sauna there will be a help to muscles.

    Jogging, hiking, deadlifts, and snowboarding for me... soon I will be adding swimming to that.

    I don't do too much outside of Insanity but it's just because of time. I am so busy that I usually only have time for the one workout but I do walk the dog daily and if I have a chance I'll throw in other Beachbody program workouts I love, like from Turbo Fire.

    When I can fit it in on my days off from work I will Inline Skate, go to the gym, do one of Jillian's workouts, or do TAE BO along with Insanity.

    Like the responses so far. I'm thinking of adding back my stationary bike, I tried it a few days ago but my legs were too tired...

    The recovery day might be a good day to try this on, as that is the lighter workout for the week. This is usually the day that I get my 10 mile Skate in.

    On the weekends, I do yoga in the morning, insanity in the evening.
