Insanity Workout

Half way through month two - feel free to add me. 7 kg lost so far and down to 14% body fat from over 24

Hi!
I'm on day 3 . Feel free to add me. I've joined a group on here for people who start Insanity this week. You are welcome to join too! Feel free to add me.

OMG - I did the Fit Test earlier and had no idea how out of shape I was! I do a lot of walking so thought my legs were in pretty good shape, boy was I wrong.

Must admit was dreading today. Just the thought of having to do it by myself and not really having anyone to answer to like you do in a class, didn't really motivate me, but really enjoyed it and can't wait until tomorrow when it starts to get tough.

Well found my motivation to stay on track. Some of my colleagues overheard me talking to someone about the dvds & I've been told that have to report my progress to them at end of each week cos they're interested to see if it's as good as people say it is. Haven't decided yet whether this is a good thing or bad thing, time will tell I guess.

Hope everyone is doing ok & keeping up the good work.

I did the first proper workout today & my son told me afterwards that I looked like I'd just come out of a swimming pool. I'm so glad that each exercise is only 30secs cos don't think could last any longer! Despite not being able to keep up, I did enjoy it though.
Good luck for tomorrow, I'm sure you're fitter than you think.

I usually log as circuit training- ideally what you want to do is use a heart rate monitor as that'll give you more accurate numbers, but you can always just take your heart rate several times through the workout then find a calculator online to get a sense of how many cals you're burning (there are lots of websites where you can plug in some numbers!)

I started on Monday. Definitely sore but I hope it will be worth it. I use a heart rate monitor (HRM) and log it as aerobics and match the minutes to the calorie burn the HRM estimates. It's not exact but I think it might be a little more accurate to estimate using the HRM. I just need motivation to keep inputting my intake into MFP!
Good luck everyone!

Both are great workouts! Insanity is my favorite, but X3 is good too. I like that the workouts are short and easy to fit into my crazy days

I started on 4/21. I did it 2 years ago and had awesome results. Then added to our family, so I'm trying to get back to where I was in 2012.

I'm on the last day of week two and loving it!!! I've lost 6lb since starting which I'm really happy with, I am looking forward to my rest day tomorrow though!!!

Im a tad late!
Just starting tomorrow. Insanity in the mornings and brazil buttlift at night.
Add and message!!

Insanity is great!! I started insanity last year, after just 30 days i lost 2 sizes and 15lbs ( was also walking 14 miles ad day collectively to and from work). The important thing is to stay motivated and positive!! The first week will be hard, and you WILL be sore lol. But after the first week everything gets easier. In just two weeks i went from being able to do 1 push up to 15 in a row!! Pace yourself and try to keep up with Shaun as he switches exercises, but don't try to move as fast as everyone on the screen by day 30 you'll see a drastic difference in not just your size, but your muscle tone as well good luck!!
