  • July 9, 2014. INSANITY STARTS TODAY!!!!!

    Anyone else starting this week, please let me know. Maybe our success can be paralleled. I will post Fit Test Results in my Journal.

    I am starting on a Wednesday, because I have failed at it twice, and on those times I started on Monday. But not this time! because if I did start on a Monday and expected different results, it would be....well...you know.

    I want that T-Shirt!!!

    I could use some friends that are doing this, I don't care where you are from (I usually do). Befriend me!

    I'm restarting Insanity this week. I have completed it up to month 1 about 2 yrs ago, but due to my work schedule, I couldn't keep up with it. I'm through with excuses so I'm gonna make it through the whole 2 months this time!!!! I didn't lose much in the first month I did it, but I went from doing 1 minute planks to 3 minute planks (in just 30 days!). I may not have lost weight, but I gained strength. I think I need to change my diet to get the weight loss results I expected.

    Pray for me! I'll be hurting for the next 2 weeks--at least!

    I'm in Week 2 of Insanity (Day 12) and it's my first time doing the program. I love it already and how much it kicks my butt! I've noticed some small changes in my body already and I just feel better too. I'm not following the meal plan but trying to stick to the recommended amount of calories based on the equation in it and trying for 5 smaller meals during the day. I also invested in a Polar FT4 HRM so I can see how many calories I burn, which is really helpful!

    I'm 24 years old, and I just finished up my MEd, looking for a teaching job. I'm in decent shape, but I missed a lot of workouts when things got crazy this past year of grad school, so I want to slim back down from that and then tone up all over. Looking forward to participating in this insane little journey with all of you!

    Hi, Im Julie. My husband and I started Insanity this morning. Man I thought I was in better shape than he was but he blew me out of the water! I was about ready to say I made it through it and then found out it was just the warm up! I really suck at cardio and this is really going to push me to do better, because I have my husband beside me and I cant let him out do me again:O)

    Any suggestions on how to keep motivated would be greatly appreciated.

    I got very light headed doing the things where I was down and then had to get back up and then back down. but figure as soon as I learn how to breath properly that should get better.

    Hello all, I just joined this group even though I'm on day 21 of Insanity. This is my second round. The first round was last year but hurt my shoulder weightlifting. I gained 15 since then (up to 200 lbs.). My goals have changed this time. Feel free to add me as a friend for inspiration and motivation.

    Starting weight: 202
    Current weight: 194
    Goal weight: 180
  • Hello! I have had the Insanity program for a couple of years now and have completed it once and done half cycles several times with great success. I started on Monday and am committed to seeing the entire program through again. Although it is really tough at times, the program WORKS! I am a high school basketball referee, so my goal is to complete the 60 days and then begin a running program in October/November to get myself ready for the season.

    Current weight: 203
    Goal weight:185 (mid November)

    Good luck everyone!

    I am coming to the end of week 2 in month 2 and loving it - but it isn't getting much easier!! I don't stop at all other than the "proper" water breaks and try to keep up speed-wise (not always successful at that but most of the time). However I haven't lost any weight and I did not take any measurements or pictures - but I think I am toning up a bit and getting fitter. It hasn't been continuous as I took a week off for a holiday and will need to take a few days off in the final week (I will have done the full 63 days by the end) so I am going to do the 2nd round straight away without any breaks this time starting the 2nd week in September. If anyone wants to join me that would be great - just send me a friend request. I am determined to get fully "ripped" at some point ;-) and need all the help I can get. I am also happy to support anyone through their first time if you like.

    Hi everyone! A little late to the MyFitnessPal Insanity party, but I am looking for some group accountability. I am in Month 2 of Insanity (my second time through - first time a few years ago). I realized a couple days ago that I really have really slacked on tracking and being intentional about my food intake so it's definitely time to tighten that up in order to see the results I'm working my @$$ off for. Wheeee!

    I'm looking to lose about 10 pounds and retain at least some muscle mass, so I'll also be lifting weights throughout (I'm very fit, but I will be cognizant of not over-working my muscles and will adjust my Insanity schedule accordingly). Looking forward to digging deep and interacting with you all. Cheers!
