    Hi All, Just finished day 5 and feeling great :D my legs aren't nearly as sore anymore so there is hope! Im finding im able to last alot longer now too so that's pretty wicked. I hope everyone else is doing well too :D

    queeniecole >> i just wear my trusty old nike jogging shoes and they seem to do the trick, so i'd say any good brand of runners would do, just experiment i guess and see what works for you. maybe you could try some extra supportive dr scholls inserts to see if they work. sorry not much help i know :) good work on insanity :) you're inspiring

    Just a piece of advice. When the coach tells you to dig deep, remember to listen to your body.

    A friend of mine tried the Insanity program recently, and she dug too deep and pulled a muscle. So do be careful!

    I do my workout on carpet, I tried wearing trainers but the arch of my feet hurt and my ankles were twinging a bit. Now I do it just in sports socks they have cushioned heels and balls, bit of grip in them too.

    Yes but Shaun T also tells you to listen to your body. I agree you need to be careful. I am doing Power 90 now but look forward to Insanity soon.

    Im done day 8!! great program so far, im not feeling any pain anymore but i did have to buy some wrist supports and will probably pick up some knee supports eventually too, just to prevent injuries :) im feeling stronger everyday and i hope when month 2 rolls around i'll be prepared for it :)

    When Shawn T tells you to dig deep i imagine he means to keep pushing through when your legs are tired and you're out of breath. Im sure he doesn't mean for you to ignore any sharp pains (like a potential pulled muscle etc..) I started getting some sharp pains in my wrist while doing push-ups so i made fists and did them that way, then i bought some wrist supports now i have no trouble and no injuries.

    cheers xx
