I'm curious also. :-)

Nix

It's an AMAZING workout!! I dropped 12 lbs and went from a size 8 to a 4. Legs are now super toned!! Love it... Try it!

hey guys can someone fill me in on this it sounds brillaint it but not sure how it all works and that guys x

could you please also note if you are following the nutrition guid and/or just doing the exercises? thanks! i can't wait to read these! i'm on week 2...

It doesn't matter if you follow the nutrition guide. It's no ground breaking plan and there are hundreds of books of the same types of meals. Just make sure you have an appropriate calorie deficit.

Day 4 for me today!!! Loving the workouts and Sean T. is actually really motivational!

KEEP THAT CORE TIGHT!

I’m on day 34 of back to back Max Insanity. This is my second round and thanks to MFP I’m on track again to my goal of 6% body fat. MFP helps me keep close tabs on my calorie intake and helps make sure I’m not overtraining. That was my mistake month 1 of Max Insanity on this round.

My legs are like tree trunks now and my arms have clear definition. What I am concentrating the most is my mid-section. Got to peel off that small layer of fat because no matter how many crunches you do, as long as there is fat there you will never see any true definition. I got the flat stomach but just no six pack yet.

I’m doing my own schedule now. Max Cardio & Cardio Abs days is what I work in the most during the week. I burn on average 900-1025 calories per workout except recovery days. That is more like 550 calories. I will finish my second round of Insanity (2nd month of back to back Max Insanity) on April 1st 2011.

I’m hoping for amazing results like other Insanity grads but if not, I will roll into another month of Max until I get it right.


Height 6”1”
SW = 210
CW = 200
GW = As long as I have abs to show for all the hard work I’m not concerned about my final weight.

For all of you on that first round of Insanity, keep pushing, keep digging and as Shaun T would say, “You’re in it to win it, so dig deeper!”

This is my last week of Insanity, I love it. I have a long way to go and I will be starting Insanity again once I'm done. I've dropped 2 pant sizes and my cardio strength is amazing. I'm running my first 5K of the year on Saturday and I hope to run the entire thing, which would be a first for me.
For measurements, I'm down 5" on my stomach, 2" on each thigh.

I've got 8 days left. I've already lost 10 lbs and 11 inches!!! :noway:

My Dh and I did it. I lost 4 inches overall and around 10lbs, but it was very difficult to 'see' any results- as in, none of my clothes fit differently. My DH gained a LOT of muscle mass in his chest, so he didn't actually lose any weight and he did not like his "barrel" look. We did not do the diet plan. We live in Europe and found it too difficult to find subs. Neither one of us was super happy with our results, although we both do the workouts individually now. We loved the endurance that we gained and loved the Fit Tests, that was an easy way to see how our overall fitness improved.

I don't think we'll do the whole program again, but the workouts themselves are great cardio during the winter when it's tough to get outside and run.

I am on week three of Insanity and can see amazing results, I haven't been following the nutrition guide but have been using MFP to stay on track with calories, carbs, fat, etc.
The cardio is intense, I burn an average of 400-500 calories per session according to my heart rate monitor. The balance, yogo and stretching seems to have really helped with my posture and I feel great.
I like it because I don't like to work out and if I can get this intense of a work out in 45 minutes or less then I am sold

I'm more than happy and proud to share my story :-)

I started Insanity back in late 2009 and let me tell you, I LOVE the results. Till this day, I still do Insanity (because I can't get enough) along with other workouts as well. I'm actually on my 5th round of Insanity and to be honest, even doing it for the 5th time, it challenges me to push harder and harder every single day - just as you should in all workouts.

When I started Insanity I was 220 Pounds, 20 Years Old, 5"7 and my Body Fat was just terrible to even mention :-( After 60 Days, I went from 220 to 180 and was about 23% Body Fat. I didn't stop there - I did another round of Insanity and again dropped more weight, 180 down to 145 and 12% Body Fat!

Long story short, my story and the success I had has had a big impact on my life and changed big time! I am a Beachbody coach helping others, I have my own class teaching other students, I even am pursuing a degree in "Fitness & Health". I love it! And I couldn't be any happier! :-)

I am following the nutrition guide.

Since there are some beach body coaches in here, what program would you recommend for someone just starting out. I have P90X, but I am so out of shape it kicks my *kitten*. I see that they have a ton of programs on their website. What you you recommend for someone who doesn't exercise at all to start with to get in shape and work their way up to a more intense program?

I started out initially with Turbo Jam. It went slower and allowed me to feel comfortable with the moves, eventhough I was a bit confused sometimes, and let me build up my fitness level. I started out at 293lbs and was able to drop 50lbs with turbo jam and then move on to Insanity (I am on my second week) and I don't feel like Insanity is too hard or I can't do. It's tough but I think that starting out with Turbo Jam allowed me to build up to this. Message me if you want more information or to chat about the different programs offered by beachbody. I have been a coach for a few months now and would love to help you out.
