    I am on month two, week two, so can always support you through your journey. I am thinking of starting p90x/insanity hybrid in the new year.

    I am in my 2nd week!!! =)
  • I started Insanity last Monday (12/17) and just joined myfitnesspal to help me keep track of my calories.
  • I started Insanity yesterday. I'm already sore today. I'm not following the Elite Nutrition guide though. I'm tracking my calories on this website and hoping for great results!!!

    I'm planning on starting today or tomorrow. Is anyone doing the nutrition program? I wasn't real impressed with the suggestions, but I thought about loosely following it: adding a few snacks in the day and cutting out carbs for my last snack and dinner.

    My days will probably go something like this: pineapple and cottage cheese for breakfast, something for a snack, salad of wrap for lunch, a veggie snack later on (probably something like cucumber slices and hummus), and a veggie and protein for dinner (the weather is right for stuff like chili and soup).

    Hi
    That sounds like a good nutrition plan. I am going to try and stick with the macros and calorie recommendations, but sticking with food I enjoy. When I recently did body revolution I was eating too little (net 1100) and ended up bagging out eventually, so I am including more cals and carbs this time. Good luck!

    Started on the 27th.
    I didn't want it to be a New Years thing that would get shelved shortly into the new year like most resolutions.
    So I started straight after Christmas, on a Thursday.
    Probably means there won't be anyone else starting on this date but I would still join in with encouragement and accountability chat and banter!

    Cheers

    I do not follow the nutrition program because I do not like the recipies. I will say that I was hurting and losing stamina inthe first few weeks of insanity. I upped my protien to make sure it is always 100 grams or higher and I started to recover faster and handle the program better.

    I am starting p90x/insanty hybrid tomorrow!
  • I watched the fitness test today... while eating some chocolate covered cherries I might add and I thought... How in the world am I gonna do this? How many of you thought the same thing and how did you get through it?

    I will admit to being a bit worried. I'm planning on starting on Monday. It's not so much the fit test that has me worried, but I was watching the Max Cardio and thinking about halfway through...'yup, heart attack #1 should happen right about here'

    :sad:

    Hi everyone! And Happy New year.

    I started Insanity yesterday (the 2nd). My muscles are sore, but I'm glad I did it. I had done it before in 2011 and saw great results, but then I got lazy. I am determined this time to not only get my weight off, but get my body into shape. My day off will be on Tuesdays, and I'm actually excited about it.

    Last night I was able to get through most of it without stopping for too long. Heck, I was thrilled I was able to get through the warm up without stopping.:laugh:

    I didn't do the fit test, I started with Plyo.

    Feel free to friend me so we can encourage eachother.

    Question for you all:
    I use a heart rate monitor that has a calorie counter on it, but I find it hard to believe that I burn that many calories. For even 25 minutes of Plyo it stated I burned 587 calories. Do you find these things very accurate? I have the one with the chest strap. Would love to get your feed back on that.

    Also, are you doing anything else but Insanity? Have you tried any other BeachBody workouts?

    Good luck everyone!:smile:

    Hello!
    I'll be starting the Insanity workout on 6th Jan!
    I've tried many times to this workout but kept catching a flu.
    Do add me if you need support, because I know I sure do!

    Actually, in the previous times i've done the Insanity workout, i've not followed the nutrition program at all.
    Before I gained 5KG this holiday.... ): I actually lost 9KG just by exercising and following the myfitnesspal 1.2k calories.
