kattungen - New to myfitnesspal and I'm starting Insanity today too. Been my 3rd or 4th time starting it, so it'll be great to use this thread to help stay accountable.
ash15nicole - We're coming for you! We'll keep up to date on this thread and we'll only be a week behind. Lead the way!0 -
Congrats Stooooo. That is a great accomplishment. I'm sure there were days when you didn't want to do the workout but you just have to push through.
If you miss a workout it's not the end of the world, just come back and start again the next day.0 -
I started today, can I join in on this challenge? I'll be a week behind y'all though...
Welcome to the group! Always room for more.0 -

There were plenty of days that I didn't want to push play. However I have to say with Insanity there were more days that I did want to push play, then not. Which is surprising for me. With Insanity I actually looked forward to my work out.0 -
@lakergreat1 How did the fitness test go?0

I did the first fitness test yesterday, with some depressing results
Switchkicks: 54
Power jacks: 26
Power knees: 60
Power jumps: 10
Globe jumps: 6
Suicide jumps: 6
Push-up jacks: 4
Low plank oblique: 41
My arms are so weak, I can't even do one real push-up, so the push-up jacks killed me!0 -
Cardio power and resistance done this morning. Burned 326 calories. With the workout tomorrow it marks the end of week 3.
I am going out of town for the weekend then will be gone a couple of days for work so I am treating next week as a flex week (I'm calling it my week 3b). Hoping to get 2 insanity workouts in and then do some running.
Modify when you have to.0 -
Plyometric Cardio done, and OMG I am dead.
Stats from my HRM:
Max 192, average 164
Sone 1: 06:16
Sone 2: 10:13
Sone 3: 28:23
Calbrn: 516 (17% fat)
I am seriously starting to doubt if I'll ever be able to complete a whole week of Insanity0 -

Good job. The first full workout is the toughest. I was impressed by your heart rate as my max is supposed to be 164 - then I realized your in your early 20's. Oh to have a young heart again.0 -

I don't know if I can really answer your question as I have never had back problems. Insanity involves jumping, squats and twisting so if these moves would normally hurt your husband's back then I would say that insanity is not right for him. He can always try and then just modify the moves if he feels pain.0 -
kattungen - I'm still with you.. keep pluggin away!
I'll post my monday fit tests results when I get home today. Trying to juggle p90x week off with start of insanity (not the smartest thing) and also fit in basketball 2-3 times a week. But I'm still with you!0 -

Cardio Recovery tomorrow, looking forward to that! I know it's more static strength-exercises, but I find that I'm pushing soooo hard on the intervals in the cardio work outs that I'm queesy and dizzy at the end0 -

You may want eat half a banana before the workout to help with dizzyness.0 -
Pure Cardio completed this morning. Did not have time for cardio abs. Hope to do that tonight (or maybe AB Ripper X). Burned only 318 calories. Feeling like I'm getting a cold so I was not 100% this morning but I pushed myself through it.
Doing some traveling starting tomorrow so I won't be able to check in with all of you till mid next week.
Keep at it everyone.0
