    Insanity is the *kitten*. I originally bought it for my husband in 2009. He's been doing Insanity off and on since then, while I sat back and watched him strain, sweat and yell. I thought he was "insane" but results were amazing. He's an outrageously fit man, but Insanity brought it to another level. He still works out in the gym, does CrossFit and other programs but he always returns to Insanity for the intense, high impact exercises. I recently joined him in March 2013 and I've never felt better! Starting off with such a crazy program makes everything else feel like cake! I can 2 miles non-stop now; I can keep up with other exercise routines and programs confidently. Insanity is a huge challenge, so it really makes everything else seem not as bad. I keep comparing it and repeating it because it's honestly that true. Insanity is BANANAS but I love it. I love Shaun T. for bringing the insane inside my home.

    Hi everyone - I am onto my 2nd week of insanity. I'm down 2 inches in both my waist and hips, and down 2.5 lbs. One thing: I'm worried that I haven't been sore at all lately? I'm not complaining but perhaps I should be pushing myself more or maybe my body just recoups well?

    Hi all!

    I'm in the middle of my recovery week. :smile: I'm lovin this program. It's tough and pushes me. I've previously been a Chalene Johnson fan (still am) but have a new love for Shaun T. They are different instructors and both have their reasons for being awesome.

    Hi everybody, I am on my rest day of week 1. My god does my body hate me. However, I have lost about 15 pounds in the past two weeks and I feel so much better throughout the day (besides the obvious muscle soreness). I could use some more MFP buddies if anyone is interested.

    Looking forward to getting my butt kicked by Insanity.

    Did the Fit Test yesterday and first full workout today! It was AMAZING! I've never had my *kitten* kicked so hard by a workout. Excited to keep going!

    I was surprised by the fit test too! I finished Insanity in July, and am now doing T25. I plan to do Insanity a 2nd time, or do "Asylum", after completing T25. Keep with it! it is an awesome workout that actually works!

    I started Aug 31, 2013. I tried it before in Dec 2012 but didn't see results so quit after 4 weeks. I am trying it again and am determined to finish the whole program. So far it is going well and I am oairing it with a healthier diet this time.

    Hi everyone. My name is Mary. I am 31 years old, married, and have 3 children. I started Insanity yesterday. I have already done today's workout. So far it is not as bad as I prepared myself for. Don't get me wrong... it is tough and I hurt, esp. my legs. Oh gosh, my legs. LoL. :D Can't wait to get more into this. Even if it gets more painful. I need to get this baby belly gone!

    Just a quick note to introduce myself.

    Am 32 and due to start Insanity Programme next Monday planing on doing fit test on Saturday. I am hoping to slim into my size 8 jeans by New Year.

    I'm hoping to get morale support through this group as well as logging progress through MFP and Endomondo.

    Quick note to introduce myself.
    I am a 34 year old mom of 2 boys ages 9 and 5. I just completed Insanity last week and began Insanity Asylum this week. I had pretty good success with Insanity and now looking to improve even more with Asylum. Asylum takes Insanity to a whole other level! It's tough, but I do love it!!
