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
