Insanity Before/After with Pictures

My husband and I finally finished Insanity on 8-26-12. I could never have gotten through it all without him. He definitely motivated me when it got tough, especially during the second month ...through those 55 minutes workouts. We both pushed as hard as we could and it sure was worth it. Here are my final Fit Test results:

Power Jacks: 50 to 61
Power Knees: 71 to 129
Power Jumps: 38 to 54
Globe Jumps: 6 to 11
Suicide Jumps: 13 to 14 (17 was my best but back hurt too bad to do them on last day)
Push-up Jacks: 12 to 34 (used last times #...back couldn't handle it)
Low Plank Obliques: 61 to 74 (back couldn't do these on final day either)

Starting Weight: 133.4, Finishing Weight: 109.4
BMI: 24.4, Finishing BMI: 20
Body Fat % 36.6, Finishing Body Fat % 19.8
Neck: 12, Finishing Neck: 12
Chest: 36, Finishing Chest: 34.5
Waist: 28, Finishing Waist: 26.5
Hips: 36.5, Finishing Hips: 34.5
Right Thigh & Left Thigh: 23 Finishing: 19.5
Right & Left Calf: 14, Finishing: 12.5
Right & Left Bicep: 11.5, Finishing: 11
Right &Left Forearm: 8.5, Finishing: 8

Pretty good!! (Here are a lot of photos):

  • I don't know if I am supposed to post on this or not since I see the resaults every day but just want to make sure you know how proud of you I am! Despite all the aches and pains, head aches and back aches you pushed through and the final pics speak for themselves. So glad I was there to take the journey with you and look forward to whatever we get into next. Love you Rach! :heart:

    Of course you're supposed to post on here :heart: !! I wouldn't have been able to finish this without you!! Thank you so much for dealing with my grumpy self on many occasions at 5 am when I wasn't feeling very into doing the workout but you always found a way to get me laughing. :wink: That's what I love about you most. I wouldn't have wanted to do this journey with anyone else or by myself. I can't wait to either start this again or start something new. We make such a good team!! Love you so much babe!! :flowerforyou:

    We had to hold off a week in July when family was in town and then start back up too. Good job girl :smile: You can do it. Remember...land softly. So hard to do I know...I was like "yeah right!!" lol

    question for you- how much weight did you lose with Insanity? did you follow the plan?

    Thanks!!! I lost around 24 lbs and a ton of inches. No diet plan other than my own....I actually didn't know there was an official diet plan until about half way through as I bought my Insanity off Craigslist. I just ate up to my calorie goal of 1200 eat day (including a protein shake each morning) and never went over. I'm not an "eat yor calories" back girl either. To me some believe that way but I think it is a personal preference, everyone should go based on what works best for them. I never deprived myself on the foods I loved, just did portion control. :wink:
