Hi I'm Jen. I just started Insanity last week--I did my fourth workout this morning. Its definitely going to be tough as it gets closer to the holidays but like you I plan to try to make up workouts if I miss one, and just keep going. This is my first time doing Insanity. I have tried p90x twice but only made it through the first month each time, mainly because it was so time consuming. Since Insanity is shorter and I don't have to drag out equipment each time I'm hoping to stick with it! But my biggest challenge is that I really need to get my workouts done before work and I'm not a morning person!

I am really hoping this will get me good results and kick start my weight loss. Despite dieting and working out I have been stuck for months. My main exercise is running and I've been doing it for years and years-maybe its just not that effective for me anymore. After the first few Insanity workouts I was sore, so I'm definitely hitting muscles I have neglected.

Im Angela. I started Insanity a few months ago to help jumpstart things since I had a baby this past July. I got so busy that Insanity fell to the way side. I just started all over again as of Dec 2. Im super excited to see this through this time I know it works because I lost the first 30 pounds with it this past Sep/Oct.

Hello everyone. It's funny we are all of the same mind. I bought my copy last night, and am going to start it tomorrow with the fit test. I am super excited about this, and can't wait to see results. :happy:

starting insanity round 2 on thursday ! i cant wait !

Hi everyone,

My name is Michelle & I have attempted Insanity in the past. I got through the first month and my body felt so battered and exhausted I stopped. I had a lot of other things going on at the time as well. But the results were amazing. I'm ready to do it again and get it all done this time around.

Feel free to add me if you'd like.

I started Insanity on Dec 03, 2012.

Hello everyone! My name is Jeff.

I've done Insanity 3 times and asylum twice. I'm currently doing a hybrid asylum/insanity program thats awefully challenging. Some days are 2 disc days with a full workout from both programs lol.

hope the group is open to those who've already lost thier mind lol.

i'd like to share a couple simple truths that i've learned the hardway

- although you are burning a ton of calories... if you are like me its not that hard to still over eat and thus reduce or negate your fat lose. But sticking to healthy foods such as those outlined in the meal plan honestly makes it harder to over eat (took that awhile to really sink in). If your eating donuts or pizza you can over eat before you realize it.
- as mentioned before, form is everything... especially when you get tired. When your really tired, either take a break or concentrate on form over speed. i badly injured my back at one point and ended up gaining most of my weight back

The only other advice i have is that there is garunteed to be days where you simply wont want to do it. YOu'll have a headache or you'll have to make time for it, etc. All i can say is that whatever physical ailment (assuming your not honestly sick or injured) is bothering you, you wont even notice half way through the work out.

If your really dreading the days work out, just say to yourself 'i just got to make it through the warm up'. Honestly, if you give it your all during the warm up, and phone the rest in, you've still had a great workout. Plus, after sweeting through the warm up your likely going to feel more capable of pushing through then before you started.

I wish you all luck. You can all do it and you all know you can so just believe in yourselves.

Hey Everyone...
This looks like a great group to be a part of. I am really struggling to push through the workouts. I am not looking to lose a ton of weight, but some and also get toned.
