Hi everyone,

Has anyone ever done an Insanity/Running Hybrid? Is there even such a thing? I am on my last week of Insanity and would like to continue it. However, I also want to add some running now because I will be doing a 10K next month. Does anyone have any ideas on how to make the hybrid with running and Insanity? I would appreciate the help.

    I did p90x/running for a while. I did the strength training in p90x and ran for the cardio....but never did it with insanity. insanity has more intnense cardio than p90x so I am not sure how you would do that, unless you just alternate them.

    Good LUCk!

    WHEN I FINISHED INSANITY I STARETED ALTERNATING DAYS. RUN H210K M W F. DOO INSANITY T TH S. I'M NO DEDICATED RUNNER OR BEACH BODY FAN. I JUST NEED TO KEEP MY HEART RATE IN THE CARDIAC TRAINING ZONE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THREE TO FIVE DAYS A WEEK.

    I don't think I can do Insanity and C25K together because in the 2nd month my knees have been hurting so I want to give them a little break. But that's awesome that you're doing that!

    I didn't lose any weight in the first month but I did lose 5 inches over all. The 2nd month, I haven't taken the inches yet but I have lost about 3 lbs. So for me, I didn't lose much weight but I feel so good about myself and I feel like I have gotten much stronger. And I can see the difference in my body even though the scale hasn't moved.

    This sounds like a good idea...which Insanity workouts do you do?

    I JUST START FROM THE BEGINING AND GO THROGH IT ACCORDING TO THE CHART. I'M NOT AMBITIOUS ENOUGH TO PICK AND CHOOSE AND DESIGN MY OWN PROGRAM. ALSO, I REALLY HATE SOME OF THE WORK OUTS . IF I DON'T FOLLOW THE SCHEDULE MY PROGRAM WOULD BE VERY LOPSIDED.
