    My calves are hurting me more than any other muscle. It's strange, I never have sore calves.

    I could barely walk the first two times I did Insanity. My calves killed me but I continued and it got better. The third time I started I didn't have that problem but maybe because it hadn't been that long since I finished it before.
  • Is it too late to reply? LOL 5th day and my glutes are killing me!

    I've completed day 12!! I am loving it and I already have results- clothes are fitting better and I'm down 4 lbs.

    The soreness on my calves and butt have gone away. Just trying to keep up with the diet- it's a challenge to meet my protein requirements.

    Will be buying shakeology soon. Anyone have a prefer a specific flavor?

    Hope others that have started up INSANITY are doing well. GOOD Luck!~
  • Done Insanity twice it's amazing I see you wanna lose 15lbs you'll smash that, month 2 really ups the anti, just finished T25 that is also an awesome workout, I've had chocolate and vanilla shakeo chocolate is much better, but add stuff to it, you get a chart with that gives you a load of recipes to mix it up a bit.

    We do the 30 minute version at my gym and its only 2x a week right now.. I burn between 350 and 400 calories.
    The people on the commercial make it look easy. .Oh wow is it hard and I am drenched after 30 minutes.

    I began Insanity when I was at a plateau and hadn't lost anything in months. Though I didn't lose any weight during the program, I lost inches and my cardio endurance was OUT OF THIS WORLD by the end. I believe it helped jump start my weight loss again as shortly after I finished I began to lose weight. Make sure you're eating enough. I recommend investing in Beachbody's Results and Recovery formula. It's friggin delicious and cuts down on your muscle soreness in a BIG WAY. It's a bit expensive (about $50 for a month's worth) but it's worth it to get for the to month duration of the program. You'll notice a big difference. Good luck!

    Today is week 4 for me! I love the program. I got to about week 3.5 then had to stop cause of some personal medical issue, but started over about 1.5 weeks later. It took a lot to start over, I literally had to make myself do it every day cause I wasn't motivated to do the same weeks all over. But now that I have officially passed where I was when I had to start over, I am really into it again. yesterday was my day off and I did the insanity upper body weight training. It was beastly. If I eat 1500 cals a day I loose about 1-2 lbs a week. (I am 5'2) I also usually eat 25-50% of my exercise calories back. I haven't lost a crazy amount of weight yet, but the first go around I ate a lot of junk, this time I am being much more strict about what I eat. Plus I have heard month two is where the money is at. But I have gotten more comments about how much weight I have lost in the last month (without losing much at all) than I have my entire weight loss journey. I can see big changes in my body. My arms are tighter and have more definition. My mid section is smaller. Insanity is definitely worth 60 days. My husband has lost 12 lbs since he started with me, and he is much more liberal in what he eats.

    BTW my default pic is my arms from day 1 - week 2.

    I recommend chocolate shakeology. I add a banana and some peanut butter and almond milk.
