    I started last week, I had 2 nights where I thought "can I be bothered?" but did it anyway and was really pleased I did. my fitness test results are at home and I'll pop them on later.

    I really really enjoyed yesterday, rest day!

    Kudos for taking on the challenge guys, I will follow progress with interest as am planning to take this on when I look less like a pink hand grenade after 2 mins of exercise.

    Hi all,

    I did my second fit test today (I started the programme 2 weeks ago) and so far I have:-

    lost 2.5Kg (About 5Lbs)
    lost 2% body fat
    Increased my fit test results by up to 30%

    I feel amazing and i have regained almost two notches on my belt, and this is only in 2 weeks!

    Keep at it, stay motivated and see the results.

    Ade x

    Does anyone know the calories burned during the different workouts?
    I hear 750-1000. I think that is a bit much.
    Any ideas?

    I wore a heart rate monitor, and burned about 300-500 cal

    It all depends! I have started to wear a HRM and so far during Pure Cardio I burned 560 cal and this morning for Plyometric Cardio Circuit I burned 655. I am a 33year old female, carrying about 10-15lb of extra weight from 2 back to back pregnancies and I breastfeed so my metabolism runs a little higher than it normally would.
    I would just recommend investing in a HRM if you want exact numbers.

    I am starting Insanity today as well. Going to do the fit test around 4 pm or so today, and then try again tomorrow morning to get up early.
    I have completed Power90 with great results, and then got partially through P90X, but I was trying to do it while training for the Chicago Marathon, so I had to stop at about 1/2 way.
    I have gained a little back since then, and I want to get myself back into shape.

    This group will definitely help me stay motivated and stick with it for the 60 days especially since I am going to be travelling about 50-75% of the time over the next two months.

    Just about to start my first week after the week break in the middle.
    It's hard work but worth the results, there were days when I wonder why I started but I have seen fantastic results in my overall fitness. I'm not losing much weight at the moment (the scales have just started to move very slowly again after stopping for 4 months) but I've lost inches from my waist, so it's worth it!

    I wear a HRM as well. I like to know how hard I'm working and make sure that my heart rate stays within reason.

    Skimmed the videos I know there are things I cannot do right now...but looking forward to doing it all by the end of the 60 days. I'm going to do the fit test either tonight or tomorrow depending on my company tonight. After that its on! I've lost 167lbs and I've got precisely 90 more to go to hit my goal of 199 and make that a total weight loss of 228lbs! Yeah me!

    Hi everyone,

    I started insanity two weeks ago. In two weeks I have lost 7 lbs, and I need to have my glasses readjusted because they keep falling off my face:) I look forward to hearing everyone else's improvements!

    cheers,
    Bonnie

    Fitness Test COMPLETE!

    If that's the easiest workout within the programme I am already mourning my body for the next 2 months, nevertheless, BRING IT ON!

    Keep up the great efforts guys...

    Lets not forget our before/after pics in 60 days time!

    I started Insanity two weeks ago. I will do my fit test tonight. I have lost 5.6 lbs since starting. I am so excited to see how I do tonight! I am a little bummed out because my Pure Cardio DVD doesn't work and I had to order another copy so I haven't used Pure Cardio yet...I have been going to the gym instead. GOOD LUCK to all of you! You can do it!! :-)
