    I haven't done Insanity but have done T25. I would love to get someone's opinion on it who has done or is currently doing it. Would live to know how you are liking. Send me a msg or just fr me. ;)

    I just completed day 1 and am committed (at least for now :P) to finish it all! Has it gotten any easier for you?

    I'm doing insanity too. I'm on week 3 in month 1 and so far I love it but hate it at the same time lol.
  • I'm on my second round of Insanity, week 2. I just finished T25 about a month ago. Love both programs. You get out of it what you put in :)

    I did the Fit Test today. Last time I made it to Recovery Week and then.... yeah... I had amazing results though.
  • I did the first month of Insanity and then I came down with a horrible flu and university exams. Needles to say that I'm still struggling to get back on the horse. Now that I'm on holiday, I'm seriously aiming to get back to business. It's difficult though. How do you guys deal with the muscle aches and fatigue?

    Hi all. I've also done insanity before (2 or 3 times) and always get 3-5 weeks in and then stop for different reasons. Started again today and I'm hoping that I'll stay motivated enough to see it through to the end. How are you all getting on with it? Are you all following the diet too?

    I just finished Turbofire and am going to start Insanity tomorrow. I tried doing 30 Day Shred, but I just don't feel the same after the workout as I was feeling after completing a TF workout. Not that same high...

    I hope I feel that with Insanity. :)

    I've done insanity and T25. I started with Shaun's Rockin Body video too. It's been fun and I feel so much better. I wish I knew this stuff in college. Using Rockin Body I lost 30 lbs from 250 to 220 back in 2012-2013. I got Insanity and went through that. I got down to 197, another 23 lbs. I've done T25 and especially love Speed 2.0 on days when I only have the 25 minutes or can't run outside. I've begun to go through insanity again to shock my system with different exercises and to get the stretching I sometimes leave out when doing T25. Good luck everyone. Dig Deeper!

    Ewe, don't say the four letter word ... diet. Just kidding. I believe the only way to get true, lasting results with Insanity or any other program is to make this your lifestyle. Don't think of it as 9 weeks I HAVE to get through. Same goes for the "diet". Find the healthy things you like to eat and are easy for you to make or get and to stick to. Best Wishes.

    I just got Insanity today for my xmas present! :D I plan to start Dec 28th, my goal is to do the whole program as scheduled - though I am going to be flexible and allow myself to do workouts every second day if things get too tough. I work 6 night shifts in a row every 3rd week..which is a killer as it is just to get through the shifts. I am very worried for this, but still plan to get through it.

    I figure Insanity would be an awesome way to start off the new year, for many years to come!

    I have almost completed the first week. I am not going day-by-day, but I am going in order based on the schedule with no more than a 1 day break for the whole program. I really do not like the cardio recovery dvd. It was sad. I got all psyched up, turned on my fast-paced music, all ready to kick some *kitten*...then the workout was all slow and blah.

    I plan to replace that workout with turbo fire. Other than that - I feel like I got the hang of the workouts really quick and do quite well on them. I was surprised with my fit test results as well - I did much better than I thought. I love all of the other dvds though. I now understand people who say they love/hate the program. I dread putting that dvd in, but I just suck it up and do it anyway. While I am doing it...I just feel so pumped when I can actually do the moves that it keeps me happy. Then I just feel like a champ after the workout is done.

    Physically, the first 3 days were brutal. I am over the DOMS though, and I dont know if its all in my head, but I feel like I am noticing some changes in my stomach area and my arms. I have lost 1lb so far, after 6 days/5 exercises.

    I find I have to modify some of the moves, and even cut out a circut here and there just to catch my breath. Either way - the workout still kicks my *kitten*.

    Just a results update - I have not lost any weight yet, but I have gone from a 33in waist to a 31in waist in about a weeks worth of exercises! I cant believe it, and I am so excited to see the end results after the 2 months. I mean, this is only after 1 week of that awkward "just getting used to the workouts" phase.

    This is going to be a great month.

    I just finished week 1 of Instanity, and it was just as described insane lol. I did finish T25 at the end of the year So I am in a bit of decent shape, I have though gone from burning 450 or so cals on average with T25 to almost 700 in Insantiy, I hope I can keep it up till the end, 8 weeks togo!!

    Alrighty then, my insane friends. Was looking for my brethren and now i have found you! On my second full run of insanity so i know what to expect, cardio power and resistance is a killer for me, but feel great after. On my second week, and things are going well. Out of all the programs i did, insanity is the best for many reasons and results are one of them! Now the hard part is adjusting my eating habits....feel free to add me!
