Hi! I'm going to start today with the Fit Test actually! A little nervous...0
-
Thats awesome! It will be a lot of work but if you want to see a big change in 60 days this will give it to you just stick with it. I have been through it before and I am an Insanity coach so if you have questions let me know. Also be sure to share what your feeling whether you feel great or are struggling with the group. Are you doing Shakeology along with it?0

I'm glad to see that you got all of your numbers from the fit test. Be sure to keep track of them going forward because I was amazed at how much my numbers increased even from the first to the second. Keep the group updated on your numbers and how you feel, if there are any workouts you struggle with more than others. Keep up the great work!0

Day Two has to wait a few. I got hit with something last night after my run and have been in bed all day. I actually went to bed last night at 9pm (which is terribly early for me.) I showered this morning and put pjs back on and haven't gotten off the couch all day. Here's to another day!0

Life happens, getting healthy first is the most important part. Just make sure to pick up right where you left off and keep pushing play. Be sure to let us know when you start up again!0

Day two is done. Legs are gonna be sore. Lol....feels sooooo good.0
-
Great job just remember to focus on learning the moves to start and don't worry as much about how fast you are going.0

Day 5 is done! When is everyone else starting?0

-
Jenny, glad to hear you got started and you are drinking Shakeology which should really help your results. How is everyone else feeling right now? Are you sore? Do you find that you are tired or have more energy now?0
-
Just completed Day 5 and boy do I feel sore!!! My back, my knees, my thighs, my arms....
Working a long day today 10am-8pm....God help any of my clients that need my help in a hurry.0 -

Lost 3 pounds
Lost 5.5 inches
Switch Kicks 65 (6.5% increase)
Power Jacks 59 (55% increase)
Power Knees 109 (41% increase)

I was considering quitting, because I didn't feel like anything was changing but, when you see results like this, you can't stop.
I will Carry On!0 -
That is an AWESOME improvement! I love the Fit Tests because of the exact thing you said it seems like you are not getting results and then you see that. It is not all about the scale number because 5.5 inches and your improvement in the moves is an amazing change! Keep it up!0

Made it to week 5 of insanity - Recovery Week.
Much easier work-out..yeah! Core Cardio & Balance is a whole new work-out that is somewhat slower in pace, but still gets your heart rate up. The exercises are similar to the first month, there is just a lot more resting between exercises. Loving this break, finally my body is getting a rest ready for the intense month ahead. I've been reading blog recaps of month two and they are scaring me. On the plus side I have now lost over 9lbs, almost dropped a jeans size, abs are looking tighter and I have a waist!!!0 -
That is awesome! Enjoy this week of recovery and get your body rested because like you said month 2 is going to be pretty intense but think about this if you lost 9 lbs and a jean size in month one imagine what you can do in the more intense month!0

Must admit the exercises in the recovery week were similar to the first month and I should have loved the break but I was a little bored. Its great to be back doing the real stuff...what is wrong with me? Is Insanity making me Insane? 3 more weeks to go... yeah!!0 -
Great Job! It does make you insane like Shaun T says "Im smiling because I love it" I know once I got done I couldn't wait to start The Asylum to keep going thats when you know you are insane lol0

I was pleased until I hit a plateau at the end of month 1 and felt like giving up, but I am so glad I kept going because month 2 is where the magic really happens. I'm pushing through the workouts and I am now seeing the results… I have now lost 14 lbs, lost 4.5 inches round my hips and 6 inches from my waist. My core is tighter than ever before and I have dropped well over a jeans size and more. I feel awesome and only I more week to go...What next: next month I start training for the full marathon I will be running in April, so continuing my health/fitness journey!0 -
That is awesome! Congrats! I am so glad you stuck with it because you are right the 2nd month is really where you see the big changes. Finish out this last week strong and be sure to post and let us know when you are an Insanity Graduate!0
