I managed to keep it going for about 15 days last year but then i didn't have any spare time, i'm looking at starting it again!!
I now how sore it can be after the first few days I initially couldn't get through a full warm up without having to stop more than Shaun T said but once you have been doing it for over a week I found that I didn't have to take as many rest breaks.
Living in a flat I don't like to do the high jumps when you have to hit your knees cause I feel sorry for my neighbours haha. I found that it helped with my running as well.

Hi, I just started on 12th too and about to complete my first week tomorrow. I am a bit sore but not as bad as I thought I would be. Don't be discouraged if you can't keep up with the people on the DVD, listen to Shaun T's advice. Keep good form, take breaks if you need to. You will improve if you stick at it. Excited to see any improvements in week 2

I finish wk 2 saturday. This is my 3rd try cause I always quit. I'm determined not to quit this time

I did Insanity 2 years ago and had to stop literally halfway through [end of Month 1 (believe me, I tried pushing pass it but my feet were so waterlogged, the skin was literally tearing away during the high impact jumping etc.. I couldn't take it after trying a week of it). The best motivation I found for me during Month 1 was the Fit Test, best visual I've ever known. I noticed a change in energy level starting Week 2. I didn't notice alot in the physical looks department but I've been told that it usually starts to skyrocket during Month 2 (maybe our bodies finally think "oh sh**! We're exercising! Catch up time to this guy!" hahaha).

Also, keep in mind that everyone's bodies won't react at the same rate, so if you don't feel energy surge in week 2 etc don't get discouraged- that's just how my body works. Focus on the Fit Test! There's a reason that's there, motivation.

We just started Insanity on the 12th. Day 3 is today. I feel extremely sore but in a good way. The next two months are going to be very interesting to see how our bodies react.

Hi Steve, how's it going? Just finishing up wk 3 here and really interested to hear how others are getting on.

I did cardio power and resistance this morning. Was feeling quite fatigued today. Looking forward to rest day on Sunday!

Hello I am also starting insanity when it comes in the mail I'm wondering how many calories it burns during one workout?

Completed day 2 of week 4 this morning. Felt weak during this workout. I don't think I ate enough yesterday. Looking forward to the recovery week next week. Anyone already into month 2? How are you finding the Max workouts?

I'm in the exact same place as you right now. Recovery week is next week. I'm getting a little nervous about Month 2 of this program though...

Me too! We can do it though. No way we can give up after coming this far

I'm eating 1500-1600 calories per day, and I never feel hungry. What does you diet look like? I eat quite a bit - a lot of vegetables, lean meats (white meat chicken, turkey, tuna), and add protein supplements as needed, so that I never really get hungry. My body is still getting the quantity that it's used to to feel full, but I've really improved the quality of what I'm eating.

Today is day 2 of recovery week for me too. Still going strong! Looking forward to starting MAX next week!
