    Sounds awesome! I would love to join in but it will have to be later in 2013 for me as I'm a BODY COMBAT instructor in training at my local gym right now, so I'm already there all week long! But I'd love to see what you guys think of the DVDs :)

    I got mine - I started right away, I'm waiting for an MRI on Friday - Dr. May take me off any impact sports, so I may have to do something modified, or not at all Until I officially get word from the Dr, I'm doing P90X2 strength Phase 2 and LM Combat each AM.

    I tweaked my knee during my 2nd round of Insanity so I've been trying to work out with modifications thrown in so I don't jump so much anymore. I'm hoping Combat won't be so high impact that I can't do it but I just received mine yesterday so I haven't had a chance to preview any of the workouts.

    New to the boards here...where will I find the challenge group? Will it be a new thread on this board or is there someplace else I need to look for it?

    And yes...I learned the same thing from Insanity its really about the process rather than the schedule, even if it takes a little longer to finish you have to make it work for you and your lifestyle. If you get so stressed out about missing a couple of workouts that you quit because you won't finish in 60 days...then you are worse off than taking a few extra days to complete the program.

    This is the challenge group thread so you'll be posting here. I'll be posting the rules here once I have a chance to put it together so stay tuned.

    I'm doing Insanity and weight lifting, but pre ordered the Les Mills combat and waiting. I'm enjoying Insanity for once, so I may just do them both throughout the week, once I get the Les Mills dvd's. I will still lift 3 nights a week, but am really excited for the Les Mills combat.

    They have a lady in each video who does a low/non impact version of the foot work. And, they very kindly show her often. I've developed tendontis in one of my ankles and have moved over to her moves a couple of times this week. You still have the intensity, without being so hard on the joints.

    Does it make more sense to start a group...that way the group shows up under your groups once you join? I'm already having a hard time finding this thread...today was on page 5!

    THAT'S a great idea! I have to figure out how to do it but I'll announce it as soon as the group is established! Thank you!!!! :heart:

    I'm glad that you are waiting to start until after the new year. The DVD's are at my house, but my husband will not let me open it until Christmas! :laugh: Count me in for the 60 day challenge.
