    I graduated Insanity about a month and a half ago and surprisingly did not see huge aesthetic results, but I still think it is a GREAT programme. From being a complete couch potato, it helped me build up a lot of strength (I can finally do full push-ups now haha) and cardiovascular fitness that allows me to pursue the active lifestyle I have today. :smile:

    Don't have any pictures but I managed to lost 4kg and an inch off the waist. Even now I do Insanity workouts on the days I can't be arsed to head to the gym or just want to up the intensity a little.

    I know these results are not 'insane' but hope that it does inspire people to try it! :flowerforyou:

    Hello Everyone! I am new to my fitness pal and I am starting INSANITY as of December 1st 2013. I'm kind of nervous but with all the good things I've been hearing about the program, I'm also excited. I am a twenty year old female college student so for me eating 'clean' isn't the easiest thing to do. I plan on using Dr. I's SHRED diet. I used that diet during the summer and after two cycles dropped 43lbs. I'm not so focused with weight with INSANITY, I'm really focused on dress and pant sizes. I've never had my fit body and I want to change that in 2013 and in 2014. I will post my before and after pictures after month one so...WISH ME LUCK!

    Insanity is a great program that I have been incorporating into my workouts since March 2011. During my 1st round, I lost 16 pounds and several inches. I lost an additional 5 pounds when I did Shaun T's Insanity Asylum program- with a total of 21 pounds lost. I have maintained my weight and fitness for the past 2 years and 8 months. As far as my diet when I first started the program, I ate healthy portions within 1400- 1800 calories a day. I was able to lose within this calorie limit and I'm in my 40's (metabolism does slow as you age). Results do vary, but many people have had drastic changes with this program. Diet also effects the results of this program. I tend to see better results when my diet is on track. The program does comes with a good diet that I followed somewhat, but I basically just ate within reason and tried to consume my carbs during the day, and taper off as I got close to bedtime.

    it's ok if you need to rest while doing Insanity. You will improve your fitness and get better and better as the days go. The program is based on HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) I have days when I feel great and can make it through the program with no problem, then I have other days where I struggle- even the participants on the DVD are taking breaks and resting when needed- you are working very close to your anaerobic threshold, especially when you first start. But, this does change as you progress through the program and your fitness improves. Listen to your body and you will see great progress :smile: :smile: :smile:

    Hello, ladies! My boyfriend and I started INSANITY on December 1st (what were we thinking??) I guess we really wanted to test our will power this holiday season, hahaha. We are also sticking to the Nutrition Plan, and haven't missed a workout yet. Hasn't been easy! I was already in decent athletic shape prior to starting the program. I do a lot of running--run a couple of half marathons every year with a handful of 5k and 10k races. I also work out every day during my lunch hour (even now while doing INSANITY). But I still had a hard time losing the 5-10 pounds I would like to lose. I'm hoping INSANITY can finally help me do just that.

    I'm 29 years old, height is 5'6", starting weight on December 1st was 143 lbs. My goal would be to fit into a size 6 again (currently a size 8), and hopefully fall between the 130-135 pound range.

    We are in the middle of week 3 now, and I've seen minor physical results, although my pants to seem to feel slightly looser. I've lost nearly 3 pounds (I know that going by the scale in this program is a bad idea). One of the biggest improvements I've noticed is my endurance and speed, not just in the INSANITY workouts, but in my running as well. A month ago, I was running a 5k distance with an average pace of 10:30-11:10 minute/mile. Yesterday I ran a 5k with an average pace of 9:32 minute/mile. Big difference!!

    I love reading through this message thread and hearing about all of the success stories. Please keep them coming and continue to DIG DEEP! Merry Christmas!!
