You have to forget all the progress you made in month 1 and start month 2 as a completely new beginning to working out. It's all about getting through - however you can. Think back to the first couple of Insanity workouts you did when you said to yourself "Holy $@#%, this is crazy. No one could ever do this!". Sound familiar? But you found a way to get through the workouts even if it meant taking breaks and even sometimes not going 100%. You got through them and, over time, improved and could even push yourself.

I'm not going to say it's easy, because it's not. But, you have to have the "just get through it" mindset when you start month 2. You can't get caught up in "wow, I used to be able to do well/push myself/not get as tired in the month 1 workouts....". You have to forget all about that and take month 2 as a completely new & separate challenge.

Come week 3 of month 2, you should be doing better than "just getting through". You'll amaze yourself at how you're able to push yourself in the workouts that 2 weeks ago made you feel how you are today. That's BEAST MODE! Stick with it - don't give up now after all the work you've put in already!

So glad I am not the only one!

I was ready to give up until I saw your post...Thanks for making me feel better..

I am on Month 2 Day 2 as well and I sucked at all the Plyo..I cant do the Power Pushups to save my life and the Squat Pushups either.

Onward and upward we can only get better and stronger and faster!

^^This! Exactly what I was gonna say!

Huh...well I'm glad to have seen this ahead of time so I know what I'm in for. I am on week 2 of month 1. I have tried Insanity before and never made it past the first few days, but this time I am determined to finish, and I'm glad to have the heads up that it will get harder. I will not give up!

I finished my day 2 of month 2 and oh my gosh, I was dying. I really felt like I didn't push myself as hard as I could because I was exhausted. But I remember the first two weeks of Insanity and I felt the same way. So it's a matter of the body getting used to you pushing it. And, just asking, why do they make you take the fit test and max interval circuit on the same day?!?! That was torture!

But, I was also proud of myself because I come from a dancer background and I never thought I could do a squat push up or whatever they asked us to do. I have never attempted any of these exercises before.

This is my first time on one of these websites and it makes me really happy that I'm not the only one feeling in pain or frustrated.
