    hey all so I was sick yesterday---super unbalanced dizzy etc and made the decision to rest rather than do the insanity workout (cardio recovery week 2) so should I start where I left off and do cardio recovery today or skip it all together and go to today's which is power and abs I think or something like that?? I say skip it since it is so light anyway and go today's, but what do you all experienced with this workout plan suggest??

    how amazing you got to work with him!!! I love the insanity and I am always dripping with sweat by the time its done!!! I tried p90x and it just wasn't my thing I just don't like weights and way too long for me, Insanity though fast quick and hard!! You do suggest though going to the next day if I had to miss one ( i was very sick yesterday and decided to skip the cardio recovery day) thanks for any help!!

    I'm in my second round of Insanity. Just due to my work schedule, I am going to frequently have to double up on workouts. I had to do it a few times in my first round, and it sucks. Definitely not something I would recommend for a beginner. I can keep up with/ beat everyone in the videos, even to the end of the second video of the day, but it requires a lot of mental and physical strength to do so.

    I've just started insainty too, on day 5 right now. I love the way it makes me feel after but it is hard! I don't keep up the pace though, I just follow the move and do my own pace, plus I think I need to perfect my form. Its great that so many people are doing it on mpfp!

    Just remember that you aren't competing against the people in the video -- you are competing against yourself.

    I like that- its completely true!

    Can I ask what hrm you have, I've been considering getting one.

    Got 5 more workouts left. When I first did the Fit Test, I was thinking what the !!!!!!!! But I stuck with it. I honestly did not do it everyday. I did it about every other day to avoid any injuries to my knees. I also drink protein shake or Soy light chocolate Milk afterwards. It really helps with the soreness and replenishes the body. That's "if" you don't drink the Recovery Formula. Since I have stuck with it so far Ive lost only about16 pounds but I have dropped from a snug 12 to a nice size 8. And my Body Fat % has dropped drastically.I love love love the definition in my obliques and arms. Could not do one push up before Insanity and now I can do about 20, which is huge for me. Don't quit. Stick with it. Good Luck to you pal ! :flowerforyou:
