Hey guys! I'm currently on day 26 of Insanity, and I love it so far. (By love it, I suppose I mean I have a love/hate relationship with it... not like I'm always super happy about doing it.)

I understand that Insanity is not for everyone. The Beachbody programs are expensive, but I am super Type A, so having the calendar of workouts makes me stay motivated. I know that I could get the same results from doing some kind of workout on my own, but watching Shaun T. pushes me. I will never be the kind of person who is like, "Omg, you know what sounds great today? Doing some plyometrics on my own."

Anyway, I would love to have friends who are also doing it! I think that it's awesome to have support, and it's nice to have friends who understand what the workouts are like! So feel free to add me if you are doing, have done, or are planning to do Insanity. And we will get through this together! :)

    Are any of you guys using an HRM? How does the calorie burn compare to the MFP "circuit training" if you've compared?

    I'm in my 3rd week of Insanity...I also have a love/hate relationship!!! I am getting good results...I think partly because of the intensity of Insanity and partyly because I am being really careful about what I am eating.

    Asylum is great too!

    I try to alternate a more intense work out for 60 days with a milder one for the next 60 days. I like the variety and the break it gives my body.

    Best of luck to you!

    I'm on Day 17! I have really been loving the results...

    And as far as calories burned, I burn anywhere between 400 and 600 depending on which workout and how hard I push :smile:

    It's a Beachbody workout program. Basically, it's several really intense workouts with little breaks in between. You can look on the beachbody website if you want to see exactly. It's hard!

    Congratulations! I have noticed a lot of changes in my endurance! Like my heart rate doesn't spike as much and I can do a lot more of the exercises. I've lost about 13 pounds in the almost 4 weeks that I've done it. I haven't done measurements though.

    What about you?

    You can DO IT girl. I have had several days where I feel that way. Just put on your workout clothes and press play. It's only 38 minutes, and you will feel SO MCUH BETTER afterwards!! You will only regret it if you skip it. Stick to the calendar, even if you half-*kitten* the workout. I believe in you!!

    I'm doing a P90X/Insanity Hybrid. I actually never really thought I'd like Insanity but I'm really enjoying doing it a couple times a week!
