I've been doing Insanity workouts for roughly 6 months. I've been trying to get through either Max Interval Circuit or Max Interval Plyo, and I just can't do the whole workout! I usually am able to get through 4-5 circuits and then I just collapse?
What should I do to build up my strength? I can do all teh other workouts completely, just not those two..

    you and the vast majority of the world lol :). Try mixing it up. hit the weights, try cross fit, zumba, spinning, running...anything that will hit your body differently for a month or two. Come back to insanity and you will be shocked to see how much easier it is.

    i don't think anyone except tanya and anna can get through the workouts! i'm on week 8 and as silly as it sounds, i try to dig deeper each time. i was still cursing at shaun t and flipping him off during "max recovery" this week. it does get better, but my boyfriend was laughing at my new habit of yelling into the towel because it was so hard!

    How has insanity worked for you? I've been thinking about investing, but I want to know from really real people if it has actually worked for them.

    I've lost eight pounds... So far so good but I hate the long workouts. They seem to be made for machines not humans!
