Insanity Week 3 Results

joehempel · January 2014

Okay, so before I start week 4 today was my weigh in and measurement day, here are the results...I started to take measurements after week 2, I forgot before I started!! The only thing I did was weight myself in the beginning.

Weight 190->185.4->187

Body Fat 27.3%->26.3%

Chest 40.5->38 (not sure if I measured right last week)

Waist 38->37.5

Hips 42->41.5

Leg 22.5->22

Arms 11.5->12.25 (not sure if it's from push-ups, planks, or I measured wrong first week)

So basically, I'm up 1.6 lbs from last week, but have lost 1/2 inch around all areas except the arms got a little bigger (still scrawny lol) chest is down 2.5" but I don't know if that's right. With the body fat going down 1% gives me hope that next month it will get crazy! I know you don't usually start seeing fantastic results until the 2nd month with Insanity, but hey, some results are better than no results!

Hey Glenn!

I'm not quite done with Insanity, I've got 3 workouts this week and my LAST week is next week!

Insanity IS hard, it's meant to be hard, it's meant to weed out the folks in the beginning who don't think that it's for them, and then in Month 2, it get TWICE as hard as the workouts are almost TWICE as long!

I wouldn't give up at all, and I would keep pushing play! I worked through core injuries, and shoulder injuries, and modified when I had to in order to get the job done.

I know there isn't a ton of time, but man, I work 3rd shift and then have an extremely special needs son that doesn't allow me to get more than 4-5 hours of sleep on a given day. You'll feel tired, you'll feel run down, but you just DO IT.

If you've only taken two days off, I would try and work those two days in and get back on track or just re-start the week. If it's any more than about a week, then I would consider re-starting depending how close you are to recovery week. My core injury happened in week 4, and I was so close I just powered through it until recovery week and things got better during that week.

Insanity is VERY mental, and without the great group of guys and gals on my friends list here, it would have been VERY hard for me to get through...feel free to add me if you want!
