    Hi All!

    I'm Jenni! Looking for some insanity buddies, feel free to add me!

    I stated Insanity on Monday. I was pleasantly suprised with my results from the fit test. Yesterday was my first actual workout and I actually enjoyed it! I'm not terribly sore today either, I think it's from the great stretching in the DVD. I saw another poster say that the warm up is the hardest part and I have to agree lol. Can't wait for my next fit test to see the changes!!! Don't get me wrong this work out is insane but in a good way!

    Hey guys!

    I'm Ryan and I just finished day 6 of the insanity workout! It was my first repeat of the ply cardio workout, and it was great to be able to push a little bit harder for a little bit longer. I still needed some breaks, but I'm looking forward to seeing some cardio results doing the fit test again. I use to be a skinny little runner at 125 pounds, but I rocketed up to 210 over the last few years. Looking to hit about 160 with some solid muscle mass after finishing Insanity then headed to Insanity:Asylum!

    Hi I'm Jenny, and I will be doing day 4 of insanity today. I feel kind of bad about it because after day 1 I was too sore to do it so I skipped a day, and did the same last night. Any advice or suggestions? Should I just start all over again ?

    Have you tried Shakeology as a meal replacement?

    Hey everyone! My name is Amanda and I'm 28 years old. I just completed day ONE of Insanity...oh my. I definitely will need support to make it through 2 months of this! I used to be in shape, but lately, the only shape I'm in is 'round'. (Yes, corny joke indeed.)

    Hello Everyone! My name is Jessica. I am going to start Insanity tonight. I need to lose 50 lbs after I have had my son. Pre-baby I was fitness crazy. My goal is to get back to the old me but better. I know this workout is extremely difficult so I was happy to see a support group.

    Hi Everyone!

    I just finished Week 1 of Insanity today. This is the 3rd time I've started Insanity, (notice I said nothing about finishing). The first 2 times, I didn't monitor my eating, so now I'm determined to do this the right way (eating well & exercising). Looking for friends that can appreciate this Insane journey we're all on. I am 36, mom to a 6 & 9 year old boys, and just ready to make a change.

    Hi all. I'm Keshia and I am on day 6 of Insanity. I thought I was fairly in shape until I started Insanity. I could really use a support group to keep me accountable. Feel free to add me anyone.

    Hello, my name is Amber. I am 26 years old. I am on my second week of Insanity, first month. I have been having weight fluctuations for most of my life. For years I used food as my comfort. Last year I lost 10 pounds but quickly gained it back. I hit rock bottom when I found myself having to look in the 22w for pants because my 20w were too tight. That was the biggest size I had reached and it was crushing. I stopped even looking at the scale, feeling ashamed. I started doing exercises here and there, and cut out as much grease and sugar as I could. I got the courage to get on a scale and saw that I had not only lost 10 pounds I had gained, but I had lost more! Talk about motivation! In January I started doing yoga. I upped yoga to 4 -6 times a week in February. In early April I found Shaun T's Rockin Body and for the first time had a blast while working out. I started my first round of insanity on April 15th and here I am. I do Insanity, about 50 push ups, 50 crunches, planks, and I try to walk/jog daily as well. I am now in a 16. I am far from where I want to be, and am hoping Insanity can give me that extra push!!!

    I joined this group to find friends that go through this craziness haha! Add me

    Hi I'm Christine. I'm 43 years old have done P90X previously without following the diet plan. Haha, gained muscle and lots of endurance, but also a couple of pounds. Just started Insanity 3 days ago, and can definately feel the pain in the calves. I am trying to stay acountable by eating healthier and following Shaun T's calorie intake, and also trying to eat 5 meals a day. Looking into possibly adding Shakeology or Whey Protein to my diet. Just ordered new cross trainers, since my running shoes don't have the right support. Glad I found this group, I really need the accountablity. Good Luck Everyone, Dig Deeper! :)

    Hi guys! I am 24 and just started insanity on the 29th. I have done Insanity before and saw GREAT results. Its really tough but so worth it. I am in the military and was worried about taking my PT test... but after finishing Insanity I did really good! So I know it really works! BUT when I finished the program last time, I had someone to do it with everyday. I am flying solo this time so thats why I come here for support. Please feel free to add me :-)

    Hi All :) My name is Kristen. I'm 30 years old and have 6 year old twin boys. A friend just gave me the insanity DVDs and I am starting Monday, May 13th.

    I've lost 35 pounds over the past 6 months by eating cleaner and making exercise part of my everyday life. I've done a veriety of workouts from Zumba to the 30 day shred to various strength training routines as well as 4 weeks of the C25K. I've definitely seen some awesome results.

    I decided to try this program for a number of reasons (I was given it for free being one!). But the challenge factor is a huge motivator. Over the past 6 months, I've overcome a lot of things I never thought I would. When I watched the Fit Test, I was a little intimidated. That's when I decided "I'M DOING THIS!!"

    I have 15.6 pounds to lose to reach my original goal weight and I am hoping to do that in 60 days of Insanity!!!

    Please feel free to add me!

    Hello! My name is Janese and I am currently on week 2 of insanity. I have a 7 week old and 6 yr old so I am eager to drop the 30 pounds I gained with baby 2. I also want to reach the acceptable weight range for entrance in the military. I am 28 years old and out of shape. On some parts of Insanity I just sit and watch because I can't do it. However, I seem to burn between 400-500 calories each workout just attempting so I want to stick with it until the end. I do need support and advice on how to succeed!

    Hi, my name is Melissa and I'm 25 years old. I have a 5 year old little girl, so I'm a mom, wife, student, and I work full-time. It has taken me a while but you can find the time to take care of yourself! I just finished my first week and I can already tell a major change. My arms, legs, and back are getting more toned and tighter and my stomach even looks more defined. I can't wait to see the results after 60 days!! I've lost 4 pounds this week as well!! I have to stop quite a bit throughout the workout...but I catch my breath and dig deeper and go right back at it as hard as I can. I have about 60 more pounds to get rid of and I'm definitely going to use insanity to get me there. I did do about two months of turbo jam and a lot of walking up hill before I started insanity. But I honestly think as long as your willing to put your all into this workout it doesn't matter what kind of shape your in as long as you go at your own pace and give it all you have every time your gonna get stronger and in better shape!! I still can't do 1 full push up, but it won't be long now!! I've been extremely sore this week so I am glad this today is my day off, but I'm ready to go at it harder come Monday!!
