INSANITY 60 DAY CHALLEGE-start Monday?!

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.

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.

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.

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 Insanity

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.

Hey Gang,

Here are my Fit Test Results

Day 1 Day 60
Switch Kick: 50 55
Power Jacks: 30 50
Power Knees: 60 95
Power Jumps: 17 40
Globe Jumps: 3 7
Suicide Jumps: 8 13
Push-Up Jacks: 16 26
Low Plank Obl: 30 40

Pretty good overall improvement. Not where I want to be, so after I finish with the 5k training I may come back and do another round of Insanity. Good luck everyone, and I am here if you have any questions.

Pylo cardio circuit completed this morning. End of week 3. 326 calories burned. What's even better is the scale went down 1.5 lbs this past week. :drinker:

hi all!!!! i'm been consistently working out since March (run, shred, kettlebell) and my husband and i are interested in Insanity. i am much more fit than he is and it scares me, lol. a HUGE concern of mine though is that my husband has back problems (2 herniated discs). he insists he will be fine but the name of this is INSANITY!!!! :noway: how Insane is it really?

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.

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!

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 end

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.

Here's my fit test results.. i don't know if you're supposed to count every kick or if it's every two kicks counts as one rep for switch kicks.. so if it is, split it in half


Switch Kicks 110
Power Jacks 55
Power Knees 75
Power Jumps 32
Globe Jumps 8
Suicide Jumps 13
Push-Up Jacks 21
Low Plank Oblique 34

Every two kicks counts as 1 rep

Okay peeps where are all of you? Back from my travels. Started week 4. Did a double today - cardio power & resistance followed by plyo circuit. Back on track.

Anybody here?????? Started month 2. Two workouts done and month 2 definitely kicks it up a notch from month 1. Keep at it......the days will go by whether you do the workouts or not so you mind as well do them.
