Insanity Workout!

I just started Insanity as well, just finished Day 4. So far I have not stuck 100% to the exact meal plan, but have been trying to stick with the same 40/40/20 rule. Felt very sore after yesterday, but better today.

Hope to stick to it - Good Luck!

Feel free to message me if you wanna chat about it anymore!

what exactly is it? Is it like 30 DS or something?

I finished Insanity around a week ago, I loved it! Shaun T is definitely an inspiration for me and it was a complete love/hate process, but in the end I enjoyed the sweat and feeling after completing each day.

I definitely noticed more of a loss in inches rather than weight I believe, so keep measurements! Also remember that you can modify and go at your own pace, you will be improving as you go! I didn't follow their meal plan, so I can't really comment on that bit. I think whether you're on their specific meal plan or not, if you keep to your calories than you will see greater results.

Keep to it and good luck!

Hey I did the fit test today...anyone else starting out please friend ME and we can work to motivate each other... I posted all my stuff in my blog feel free to read

I'm 46 and started Insanity in October 2012. First round of Insanity was tough. I actually took twice as long - about 120 days to finish it. I was sore! Particularly my calves. Knees some too. I tried to stick to the diet the best I could with holidays and all. The nutrition guide is good and the recipes are a lot better than they sound. I don't remember how much weight I lost but it was significant. I then did a second round and did it right on schedule. I lost a total of 28 pounds but more importantly really toned up. I did a round of P90X and stopped after 73 days (90 day program). It takes a lot of time - twice as long of workouts as Insanity. I probably should have stuck with it and finished but got bored. Plus I missed the intense cardio of Insanity. I am now on round three of Insanity. It is truly addictive. As posted by others - go at your own pace. Particularly the first month. The moves get easier too. I felt like a fish out of water, flopping around with very little grace. By the third week you will have them down. Find a good coach on Beachbody.com. I like Keith Hetland. Any questions, let me know. Glad to buddy up.

True and hilarious, because that's exactly how I felt a couple weeks ago!

INSANITY changed the way I approach working out.
I absolutely love it; never followed the program exactly, but I do it every day.
Focus T25 just came out as well and I can tell you that's a great program as well.

I love insanity! I did the program 2 years ago and loved it! I didn't stick to the eating guide as well as I should have but I saw results pretty quickly. I would recommend it to ANYONE! Just make sure to go at your own pace and take breaks if you have to.

please let me know what you think of insanity. I have been debating on getting. working on more support as everyone is busy with kids and difficult to get together to work out.

I'm on day 25 Insanity and I think everyone here has had some great advice for you! You'll probably develop a love/hate relationship with it, and there will be days you just don't want to do it, but you'll feel so much better once you get started. You'll probably notice an increase in energy first, possible weight gain at first, but within 3-4 weeks you'll start feeling the magic of your body changing shape and dropping inches and some pounds! Just stick with it and feel free to add me also or message if you ever have any questions! And as everyone also stated, nutrition is absolutely key...make sure you get ENOUGH calories to fuel properly and eat sensibly and you'll do great!

Im on day 7 and i feel great. I have more energy and feel stronger. Physically, I havent seen much change in my weight/measurements.

I should be eating1600 calories/day but currently I eat about 1300 calories/day.

ON Week 1 day 7 the rest day , lost 2kg already , cant really measure with inches but it's really hard and ENJOYABLE! Add me so we can motivate each other , if you want

I'm on Week 5, and I truly love this program. I used to be a fitness instructor, and I am so impressed with the workouts! I've definitely lost inches around my waist, and am gaining lean muscle. I suddenly lost 2 lbs after Week 3 (I think that was around the time), and I lost another pound last week, without restricting calories. (I've been on maintenance, but have needed to increase my calories steadily) I follow the 40/40/20, and try to eat as clean a possible most days. Like the others, I feel fantastic after every workout. I think the 2nd week was the hardest for me, as far as motivation....but after that, I crave the workouts, and can't imagine not doing them! My body is changing shape, I'm getting more definition in my muscles, I'm feeling much stronger, and I have more energy over all. What's not to love? I also love Shaun T.'s teaching style; he's very motivating & encouraging. You will LOVE the program...just be sure to take breaks when you need to, especially when first starting out. Feel free to add me as a friend!
